Jimah Lab

Some pictures from this summer: the Mol Bio picnic and our lab outing to Grounds for Sculpture. It was wonderful having Jenny and Emily (Mol Bio SURP program) and Maria and Philip (Princeton's OURSIP) with us!

Huge congratulations to Erik Zupa on receiving the inaugural ‘Exemplar Mentor’ award from Princeton University's McGraw Center for Teaching and Learning! Erik was nominated by Maria Karakousis, a second-year undergraduate student! 🌟🎉

Our story reporting cryo-EM structures of membrane-bound dynamin primed for membrane fission and some of the pioneering cryo-ET models of dynamin helical polymers on endocytic structures within cells is out online! Thank you to all co-authors! authors.elsevier.com/c/1i~AB…

A wonderful feature on Jenny Nwokeji! and motivations for her research on malaria. 🦠 ❄️🔬 Princeton student spotlight: Jennifer Nwokeji youtu.be/aPuXVK59z7U?feature… via @YouTube

Lab celebrations from the last few months: Seraya completed her exams to become a PhD candidate 🎓, Halloween pumpkins bash 🎃, and cheers to Tommy, Sam, and Rodrigo for completing their rotations!

Had a blast at the annual @PrincetonMolBio picnic! Excited to welcome MacKenzie Cassity, our new research specialist, along with our Summer undergraduate researchers Maria Karakousis '26, Emily Lee '25, and Hayden Messina '25. Joining forces for a fantastic summer of research!

Congratulations to Amanda Banh & Gayatri Ganesan on receiving prizes for their undergraduate thesis research and for graduating with highest honors in Molecular Biology and Chemistry, respectively! We wish you the best as you embark on your next career stages in medicine/science.

Erik and Nathan are using the Leica Coral Cryo confocal microscope for in situ cryo-ET and cryo-CLEM! Thanks to @allahyarivivian, James Marr, and @LeicaMicro for the valuable training. #teamtomo

Dr. Jenny Hinshaw, John's postdoc advisor, visited us!

The Department of Molecular Biology at Princeton University is seeking a cryoEM and/or cryoET specialist to serve as Manager of Biomolecular Electron Microscopy. puwebp.princeton.edu/AcadHir… #cryoEM #cryoET #teamtomo #structuralbiology

Some pictures from the Summer: lab outing to Bent Spoon for ice cream and at the Mol Bio picnic. It was wonderful having Jenny (rising 2nd year) join us in the Summer for the OURSIP program!

Welcome Seraya Jones @serayacj! We are thrilled to have Seraya join the lab as our first graduate student!!!

We are recruiting postdocs to our lab @PrincetonMolBio! Apply online (jobrxiv.org/?search_keywords…) to work on: (1) Structural biology (cryo-EM) of membrane remodeling cellular processes (2) Cryo-EM & cryo-ET of malaria parasites Please share/retweet. #cryoEM #teamtomo #malaria

First SDS PAGE gel of the lab by Nathan Fowler!

It was great attending the @ASBMB meeting and #NIHMOSAIC colleagues in person.
