The image displays super-resolution microscopy data and a corresponding schematic model of centrosomes, specifically focusing on the localization of centriolar proteins.

The Rogers Lab publishes study in Current Biology by lead author John Ryniawec, postdoc, who discovered new regulators of centriole growth, a crucial step during the assembly of this essential and ubiquitous organelle. The authors find that coordination between these evolutionarily conserved regulators is required for reproduction in a fruit fly model organism.
