Did you know that #mucus #protects our body from #infections and houses the #microbiome?🦠Check out our new paper about how we can use #mucin molecules to reconstitute the mucus gel!🟩 #Rheology #SingleParticleTracking #Biochemistry https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs.biomac.2c01016

Researchers at Duke University have developed a fascinating new technique called 3D tracking and #imaging (3D-TrIm).

I am a PhD student of Helge Ewers at FU Berlin. I work in #neurons because actin forms very well-behaved rings there. My approach is combining #SingleParticleTracking of membrane proteins and #SuperResolution #microscopy of the #cytoskeleton via #STORM and #STED. Lots of #biophysics , #CellBiology and #neuroscience. #introduction #ScienceMastodon
