Fast scanning small angle X-ray scattering of hydrated biological cells

Authors Yu B, Sinha M, Mendes Da Silva R, Roelleke U, Burghammer M, Koester S Journal BioRxiv Citation bioRxiv 2025.12.05.692524. Abstract Due to their high penetration depth, X-rays enable us to obtain information from the interior of whole, unsliced cells. Scanning small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), in particular, reveals real-space

Optimal Transport Based Testing in Factorial Design

Authors Groppe M, Niemöller L, Hundrieser S, Ventzke D, Blob A, Köster S, Munk A Journal Arxiv Citation arXiv:2509.13970. Abstract We introduce a general framework for testing statistical hypotheses for probability measures supported on finite spaces, which is based on optimal transport (OT). These tests are inspired by the analysis

The keratin cortex stabilizes cells at high strains

Authors Meyer R, Rölleke U, Schwarz N, Perez-Tirado A, Schepers AV, Janshoff A, Köster S Journal BioRxiv Citation bioRxiv 2025.02.24.639846. Abstract The eukaryotic cytoskeleton consists of three filament types: actin filaments, microtubules and intermediate filaments (IFs). IF proteins are expressed in a cell-type specific manner, and keratins are found in
