New teaching textbook on autophagy (IMAGE)
Caption
Prof. Ben Loos and PhD student Nicola Heathcote from Stellenbosch University’s Department of Physiological Sciences with the new “teaching textbook” on autophagy. Behind them on the screen is a cell that has been acquired in hundreds of sections, creating a large 3-dimensional data set, from which now single autophagosomes have been segmented out. Part of a collaboration with Dr Lucy Collinson from the Francis Crick Institute, London, this labour-intense process has also been a cornerstone of Nicola’s PhD work.
