@RetoPaul A couple of bacterial findings: 1) Septal arcs by 3D-SIM (by @BrunLabCaulo). https://t.co/3qdsqAMwDd 2) Cytokinetic Division Ring spread and dynamics by TIRF-SIM (by @GeorgiaSquyres). https://t.co/Tb1gVOMiOg

FtsZ treadmilling ensures new cell wall is added evenly at the division site. This figure from Dr. @fleshball and colleagues shows old cell wall in blue and new cross wall labeled first in green and finally red. #EngageDBIO #DBIOTweetorial https://t.co…
