Postdoc in the Pigino Lab @ HT. I enjoy long walks along microtubules and missing the sunset because I’m behind a microscope. She/her. Eng/Ned/Deu.

My main PhD paper is on bioRxiv! 🥳 We used motor-PAINT, expansion microscopy, and live-cell imaging of StableMARK to map out how the microtubule cytoskeleton reorganizes during neuronal development. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Polarity reversal of stable microtubules during neuronal development

Neurons critically depend on long-distance transport orchestrated by motor proteins walking over their highly asymmetric microtubule cytoskeleton. These microtubules are organized uniformly in axons w...

Advances in microscopy mean we can now do more than just observe biology—we can control it. But how far can we really push this in mammalian cells with all their (beautiful but annoying) heterogeneity? 🧪🔬(🧵)

Hi folks! Lots of things changed in my life recently (!) but mainly (1) I finished my PhD in the lab of Lukas Kapitein focusing on microtubule stability and orientation in neurons and (2) I moved to Milan to start my postdoc with Gaia Pigino on tubulin post-translational modifications in cilia.
