Finding each blood stem cell in its neighbourhood: machine learning to map the bone marrow niche from multiplexed imaging and single-cell proteomics

Your bone marrow makes hundreds of billions of new blood cells every day. A small population of haematopoietic stem cells sustains this for life from specialised neighbourhoods, or niches, shared with stromal cells, blood vessels and maturing blood cells. Read more

Investigating the molecular grammar of biomolecular condensates through single-molecule biophysics

Many cell types exhibit liquid-like biomolecular condensates (https://doi.org/10.1126/science.aaf4382), however, the interplay between their assembly, “molecular grammar” by which the sequences, structures and interactions of biomolecules determine and the microenvironment assemble into condensates govern the resulting functional properties remains a fascinating mystery.
