I'm thrilled my Co-PIs Leonel Malacrida Dr. Elizabeth Head Tatsuo Fukagawa and I received an award to disseminate chemical-based super-resolution imaging methods! We are 1 of the 14 winning teams. Thanks to Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, free LR-ExM probes to distribute soon 🆓🌟😍!! chanzuckerberg.com/science/progra…

Congratulations to Assistant Professor Xiaoyu Shi from the Department of Developmental and Cell Biology who has received a $400,000 grant from the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative Initiative.🎉 Read more: bit.ly/Shi_Grant CZI Science Xiaoyu Shi

We're kicking off #AAPIHeritageMonth with our first faculty feature, Assistant Professor of Developmental & Cell Biology, Xiaoyu Shi! Read more about Professor Shi's lab here: bit.ly/ShiLab #UCIBioSci Xiaoyu Shi

Happy to share my first review with Dr. Xiaoyu Shi Xiaoyu Shi on Expansion Microscopy at Current Opinion in Structural Biology Current Opinion/Research in Structural Biology. Just expand your sample to enjoy the world at super-resolution level~ sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Xiaoyu Shi from UC Irvine concludes this fantastic morning session at #EMBOsuperResMicroscopy with her lecture on label-retention expansion and its combination with #SIM and #dSTORM

Had a great time at the EMBO workshop Super-resolution in light microscopy in beautiful Prague #EMBOsuperResMicroscopy . Deep appreciation to the organizers Ivan Novotny, Jan Valečka, and Christian Franke Christian Franke who gave humanistic introductions to speakers.

🚨#Corefacility #Latinamerica last chance to submit your application to get training in: 🔴#HSI+Phasors or 🔴#ExpansionMicroscopy (LR_ExM by the one and only Xiaoyu Shi) + attend to our annual workshop All details 👇 Deadline 10/09 🙏 help us to spread the word

Our department UCI Charlie Dunlop School of Biological Sciences has two openings for tenure-track AP positions in the areas of genome regulatory mechanisms (recruit.ap.uci.edu/JPF08721) and stem cell/regenerative biology (recruit.ap.uci.edu/JPF08722). It’s a great and supportive place to start a lab. Deadline 12/15 Please RT

It was an invaluable experience to talk at the #5thAWAMB in Uruguay! Following it, my postdoc Yuanyuan Wang is now leading the 1st Label-Retention Expansion Microscopy (LR-ExM) Workshop partnering with UBA's "Train-the-trainer" program! Thanks to Leonel Malacrida #CZI #Latinamerica

I still cannot believe this is happening. Shout out to my postdoc Yuanyuan Wang, our local organizers in Latin America, Jessica, Marcela Marcela Díaz, Leonel Leonel Malacrida, Advanced Bioimaging Unit, Light-Sheet Imaging U. Mayor, and every attendant, and of course Vlad Vladimir Ghukasyan, Steve Stephen Jett, Chan Zuckerberg Initiative!

Congratulations🏆! Proud of all of you for cracking this challenging technique. We will be back to UCI Charlie Dunlop School of Biological Sciences , but #LRExM will stay #LatinAmerica. Waiting for your feedback on the workshop. With that, we will make a better LR-ExM kit for distribution! 🫰sponsor Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, Vladimir Ghukasyan

Our lab is looking for #graduate students and #postdoc to lead the project supported by this 5-year #NSFCareer award🍻. If you are interested in organelle-organelle interactions, subcellular proteomics, or neurodegeneration, please email your CV to [email protected].

2nd plenary talk by Xiaoyu Shi, telling the #FOM2024 audience about label-retention expansion microscopy!

Really great to see Xiaoyu Shi in her fantastic keynote on label-retention Expansion Microscopy at #FOM2024 not just talk about great science but also about making that science accessible - free sharing of reagents and training, including at Institut Pasteur Montevideo

I did a collaboration with Xiaoyu Shi lab at UCI and these are the images we obtained. I love seeing others get excited about science and astrocytes. This was a fun experiment and experience💕 Thanks Dr. Elizabeth Head and Xiaoyu Shi for including me and Adrian in this collaboration💕

Check out our surprising finding in nuclear invagination's function: regulating ribosome biogenesis. Nuclear tunnels = more ribosomes! I am proud of my talented student Yinyin Zhuang, and inspiring collaborators Wenting ZHAO, Chris Miles, and Olga Razorenova!

Excited to share my first preprint in Xiaoyu Shi lab! A 3D stack ExM image of cell is attached here to share you with my daily observation (magenta: whole lipid, cyan: whole protein). I believe every tiny structure has a story. And this time it is about the nuclear invagination.

Happy #FluorescenceFriday Smiling face from #Nucleolus via Expansion Microscopy!
