I'm incredibly proud to share the first publication from the Braselmann lab, out today! We use fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy to visualize two different RNAs live simultaneously, with minimal tag size. @GUChemistry rdcu.be/c5J1b

Our whole lab pulled up to ACS Fall 2025. Presented cool science, made new connections, and even caught up with old grad school friends and folks from back home. What a week. #ACS2025 #BraselmannLab #ProudChemist

Congratulations! Looks super cool
1/A picture is worth a thousand words but what if they can say more?! We developed live-cell FLIM approaches to track protein interactions within RNA-protein condensates – Our first paper is now out in @JCellBiol! doi.org/10.1083/jcb.20231110…

„When my three-piece restriction cloning works on the first try.“ My students from now til the end of time will never stop having to hear the end of what was clearly my most memorable postdoc experiment.

What a full-circle-moment: my first grad student @NadiaSarfraz_ gave her exit seminar towards earning her PhD in my lab in the room where I gave my interview job talk - this feels like yesterday and a lifetime ago at the same time. Such a #ProudPI moment!

When we published the first #enzyme to MAKE carbon-silicon bonds back in 2016, some people asked us to BREAK them, so these man-made compounds would not persist in the environment. We finally made the first steps toward that: science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…
