Thoughtful review by Bagnat Lab Duke University. They propose that apical sorting in epithelial cells is not ruled by a protein-based sorting machinery, but relies on oligomerization, phase separation of lipids and proteins, and pH-dependent glycan interactions febs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/fe…

Curious about how epithelial cells precisely deliver proteins to either the apical or basolateral membranes? Then make sure to check out Daniel Levic’s article in FEBS re-examining how self‐organization and biophysical mechanisms guide apical sorting! febs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/fe…

Proud to be the final member of generation 2.0 from the Bagnat Lab to successfully defend! It's been an amazing experience to learn alongside Jamie Garcia, PhD and Esther for the past 6 years. I'm so excited to see where their science journeys take them next!

A big congratulations to Jamie Garcia Jamie Garcia, PhD for successfully defending her thesis yesterday!

Time to celebrate 🎉!

It was such a pleasure to have Vaishnavi in our lab while she was a high school student at NCSSM. Even though we miss having her in lab, we’re always excited to hear how she is using her passions to make an impact as a researcher at UNC!
