🧬 Excited to share our paper "Cilia SubQ," out now in Methods — semi-automated pipelines+ Cilia.AI for quantifying primary cilia & subdomains. Congrats to lead author Ellie Menzel! Paper: doi.org/10.1016/j.ymeth.2026.07.002 Cilia.AI, pipelines & tutorials: osf.io/hm38f In your lab? Reach out! #cilia

If you work on #PrimaryCilia 🔬 & spend too much time on manual image analysis, this might help! We built Cilia SubQ — automated cilia detection with analytical pipelines for basal body, transition zone, ciliary tip, and more (~8x faster ⏱️). Free on OSF 🦾 Congrats Ellie Menzel! 🎉 osf.io/hm38f

Mentoring is the most important thing most of us can do. Here is a 🧵about what I've learned as a PI running an academic research lab. I hope some of the advice is helpful to those who are just starting their labs and to folks hitting the academic job market in search of an independent position 🧪 1/n
