Approach

Our approach

How we resolve signaling in time and space: the pipeline that turns a fate decision into data.

Workflow diagram: a mixed cell population is brought to context-dependent synchrony, then split three ways into signaling assays, mass spectrometry, and microscopy; each is sampled over time to give functional windows, temporal abundance clusters, and morphology quantification, converging on functional hypotheses.
Context-dependent synchrony to functional hypotheses. A homogeneous cell population is read out in parallel by signaling assays, mass spectrometry, and microscopy across time points after induction.

Examples of ways that we employ STAMP to address diverse questions.
Timeline of ciliogenesis from serum starvation through 35 hours: metaphase and cytokinesis, ARL13B and TTBK2 recruitment at 4 hours, RAB34 vesicle recruitment at 6, transition zone formation and IFT-B recruitment at 8, cilium projection at 10, TULP3 then IFT-A at 12, axoneme growth spurt at 14, GPCR recruitment at 16, and a functional cilium with TULP3 and IFT-A returned to the base at 35.
The first application of STAMP: mapping the time-resolved stages of ciliogenesis.
