The paper identifies components of mammalian sperm nuclear vacuoles using cryo-ET and AlphaFold docking, revealing proteasomes, PA200, and ferritin, and their structural roles.

The paper investigates the structure of chromatin condensates across scales and shows how nucleosome arrangement and histone interactions influence their physical properties.

The paper develops methods to analyze chromatin condensates using cryo-electron tomography and deep learning, revealing nucleosome structures and interactions in both reconstituted and native systems.

The paper develops methods to image glutamatergic synapses in hippocampal tissue using cryo-electron tomography, enabling high-resolution visualization of synaptic structures.

This paper reports the structure of Arabidopsis RDR2 and shows how it initiates transcription from RNA templates displaced from RNA-DNA hybrids.

This study identifies the claustrum as a key subcortical hub coordinating neocortical slow-wave activity through synchronization of inhibitory interneurons during sleep and rest.
