Very pleased to share that my latest story from my time in @fredchanglab @UCSF is now accepted at @eLife. Control of nuclear size by osmotic forces in Schizosaccharomyces pombe doi.org/10.7554/eLife.…
Before I try my best to summarize it I want to thank all co-authors @fredchanglab, @ThomasGFai, @LiamHoltLab and @WallaceUcsf for organising the #QCBNet #NSFfunded hackathon.
We developed a quantitative model for nuclear size control based upon colloid osmotic pressure and tested key predictions in fission yeast. We called it: Model of the nucleus and the cell as “a vesicle within a vesicle”.
