In materials science, crystallization is usually driven by supersaturation and tuned by factors like temperature and solvent composition. In biology, however, crystals must form under physiological conditions and ambient temperatures, which drastically narrows the “playground”…
Just as Batman has Robin and Mario has Luigi, melanophores—the black pigment cells—have their counterpart: leucophores (from the Ancient Greek λευκός, meaning white). These often-overlooked cells play a key role in generating the remarkable colors and patterns we see in many…
Thrilled to see our work on the "Genetic Control Over Biogenic Crystal Morphogenesis in Zebrafish" featured on the cover of Nature Chemical Biology! @nchembio. Proud to have our research highlighted in this way :) nature.com/articles/s4158…
Our new website is live! Check it out, and don’t miss the 3D virtual tour 😀 weizmann.ac.il/molgen/gur/
🚨 Check out this awesome News & Views by Peter G. Vekilov on our latest work! Genes and crystals are not so separate 🤩🧬✨🔬@DvirGur @ZoharEyal1 @nchembio #nature #guanine #crystals #genes nature.com/articles/s4158…
Let me introduce: InstanSeg 🦠🔬💻👩🔬 This *would* have been a short thread about Thibaut Goldsborough’s PhD work… but he solved too many problems. Now it's a long thread about 2 preprints, a whole new approach to cell segmentation & #opensource software to make it easy to use
🎉 Huge congratulations to @yuval_barzi on officially receiving his MSc degree this week! 🎓 We’re thrilled that you’ll be continuing your journey with us, diving deeper into crystal formation research using medaka. 🐟 Keep shining, Yuval – exciting discoveries ahead! 🌟…
Like a master craftsman, animals can mold basic materials into a variety of crystalline structures to perform functions ranging from pattern formation to camouflage and vision. The underlying mechanisms of this process have long remained a mystery. nature.com/articles/s4158…
🚨 New Publication Alert! 🚨 We’ve uncovered the bio-chemical control behind crystal formation in zebrafish iridophores 🐟✨. Our study reveals how the genetic regulation of guanine and hypoxanthine ratios shapes diverse crystal morphologies. This discovery could pave the way for…
Better late than never! Happy belated birthday to Tali - the best lab manager we could ask for!! 🎉❤️🥳🔬🐠🐟
Congratulations to Dr. @DvirGur of the Molecular Genetics Department upon receiving the European Research Council (@ERC_Research) 2024 Proof of Concept Grant #ERCPoC @lab_gur
For an ERC-funded project, we are searching for talented postdocs/PhD students to carry out exciting studies involving genetic engineering, functional crystals, and optical and electron microscopy at the @WeizmannScience. Prior experience working with yeast is an advantage.
