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
Again a very dense and interesting delivery of membrane-related articles. Whether you are efflux pump aficionados, fascinated by lipid-MP interactions or by cutting-edge methodological developments, there's something for every taste !
You’ll find enclosed the weekly membrane digest where we learn that two lipids are sufficient to sustain a live cell, how variants may allow turning MPs water-soluble and that rats are having fun driving cars. The sky is blue for MPs !
New cool tools to manipulate MPs, structures, structures and structures, elephants pranking each other, mechanistic characterization of a key enzyme from the causative agent of sleeping sickness—no fooling around here, no time for a nap!
Buckle up for an especially exciting weekly digest packed with inspiring research at every level ! Structures, MP-membrane interactions, new AI/ML tools for MPs, and even experimental validation of what could be the first ‘protocell’ sphere—potentially mimicking early stages of cell membrane evolution. And yes, you read that right: the digest also deals with RNA (who would have thought we’d be exploring that in these pages ?) Have a nice week ! BPM
Below the Halloween membrane digest: Drrreadful proteins and scare tactics but don’t be afraid, only good science there ! Best, BPM
Today, as our friend Eric D. would say, a bunch if oufissimes (”supercrazy”) articles. Wether you are ”Hunters”, ”busybody” or ”dancer” curiosity-driven, you’ll read, among other things, that FAIL can win ! Best, BPM
A super interesting membrane digest with inspiring works every steps of the way … The membrane world has been very busy lately so we'll be publishing another digest in a few days to bring us up to date. BPM
Lots of interesting articles, as usual, especially if you want to have an overview on the manipulation of metal fluorides, want to know more on surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy or if you wish to know how to win a Nobel Prize.
