Busy times … The membrane’s digest arrives with delay and in a shorter format (no three-sentence summaries …) but with important and must-read papers !

Again, a bunch of cool readings … the world of membranes is as inspired as ever ! Cherries on top: Statistical physicists set out to ‘scientifically optimize’ the recipe of cacio e pepe and a series of paper to guide you through the way to Nobel prize (thank you Corentin Largeau for the latter press review; do not hesitate to contribute as well if you are inspired !)

Science: Transport, ABC, RNDs, lipid transport, pH cool tools … extravaganza ! Miscellaneous: budget cuts, WHOxit, Keylabs … Dramaganza !

Busy week ! The membrane digest is arriving with a slight delay and in a more detailed format this time (not concise three-sentence summaries, but full abstracts). Nonetheless the content remains just as rich and exciting ! Have a nice day and a nice week,

Dear all, A HOT membrane digest ahead, where MPs cluster, partition, condensate, multimerize, distribute non homogeneously and are degraded … Eventually, a good advice for this new year from Marie Curie: Slow productivity … festina lente ! Have a nice week, BPM

Happy 2025 ! As always, the year starts in dragster mode so these next few days are perfect for setting schedules, refining routines, and reflecting on resolutions. Here is an easy and obvious one: go on with a regular delivery of interesting, important and unexpected membrane-related news, the BPM membrane digest ! Here is the first 2025 issue ! Martin PS: Feel free to share with anyone who might be interested, it's super easy to be added to the mailing list: simply drop me a mail. PS2: Don’t hesitate to suggest papers to include in the list ! Some gems might slip through my PubMed filters or my scans of Bluesky, Twitter, and other platforms.

Oh Oh Oh, it looks like Christmas has come early this year! From electron diffraction to 19F NMR, from total eclipses and volcanic smokes down to the deepest oceans—there’s a little bit of wonder for everyone to enjoy. Wishing you all a joyful and discovery-filled holiday season! 🌲 🕯️ ✨ 🥂 🕯️ 🎁 🎵 🕯️ 🌲

Because of a crazy busy end of year, the membrane digest has taken some delay … but we’re back with cool articles putting lipids and cholesterol under the spotlight, but also showing that "microplastics it's not fantastic" and that math is here to help Ross pivot. BPM
