    Happy to share our preprint on DeepBacs, a project dedicated to all bacteriologists working with #microscopy. In #DeepBacs, we employ open-source #DeepLearning tools for various tasks in bacterial bioimage analysis. A thread will follow soon! 🦠🔬🧠 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

    Our nucloid organization work is finally out @NatureComms: doi.org/10.1038/s41467… and rdcu.be/eiqzl We visualized the E. coli nucleoid during drug treatment, suggesting that transertion mediates nucleoid anchoring to the membrane. #superresolution #microbiology

    The nucleoid of rapidly growing Escherichia coli localizes close to the inner membrane and is...
    Nature Communications - The mechanisms underlying bacterial chromosome configuration are not fully understood. Here, Spahn et al. show that the Escherichia coli nucleoid adopts a condensed,...

    🤩 looks like a fantastic tool to identify and quantify repetitive structure in your SMLM data! Cool work by @afonsomendes92 @HenriquesLab and co-workers! 🔥

    🚨🖥️🦠 OMG! #SReD is live and SHREDDING! Tap into the power of structural repetition to see new things! I'm clearly biased, but our method sure isn't! Let me show you what it can do 🧵👇doi.org/10.1101/2024.0… #opensource #microscopy #biology
