@cesifoti … jealous, not many of those in Germany…

I was playing Final Fantasy and noticed that even in the Midgar slums they have AC 😅

Primed to squeeze: mechanical memory in confined migration dlvr.it/TTWKdZ

🪲🪰 Our preprint is out! This was a team effort with Wolfram Pönisch, Matt Benton and Ewa Paluch. We asked whether Drosophila and Tribolium use the same cell behaviours to fold their embryos during gastrulation. 🧵👇biorxiv.org/content/10.648…

Dear Friends, I just published an insightful review on neural crest evolutionary origin and later transformations. “Co-option and innovation in neural crest evolution”: science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

We have an open postdoc position to study phase transitions in embryos and/or biological time, broadly understood. We are looking for experimental physicists/biologists (or similar fields). If you are interested, please email or DM me. Join us! 😀

Of frogs and men 🐸 Javiera Jorquera, @cecy_arriagadam & team studied the dynamic morphology of the second heart field in developing frog embryos & the contribution of Fibronectin 1 to this process. #preprint #DevBio #preLight by Theodora Stougiannou prelights.biologists.com/highlights/fib…

#CABDseminars "Building Two Eyes in Parallel: Reproducibility and Synchrony in Retinal Neurogenesis" by Diana García-Morales @Diana_GM_ , @GIMM_Institute 🗓️ June 19th ⏰12 pm 📍Rosalind Franklin Auditorium, CABD Hosted by @fcasfer

Is this a dream ? First time presenting at the ATC auditorium and I couldn't be happier. It was a real pleasure to share my work with the mechanobiology community 🧬🤍 Thank you for make this possible @JuanRMartinezMo @crisprscan #EESMechanobiology

🚀 How do physical boundaries shape collective cell migration? We show that geometric confinement progressively suppresses ERK signaling waves and slows collective epithelial migration 👉🏼 New preprint with @EdouardHannezo and @hirashima0203 doi.org/10.64898/2026.…

@HenriquesLab @_mariod @JDamianMtzR @Bruno_MSaraiva @wmarkbates @christlet @T_Shakespeare abrazo para ti también Ricardo! Hope all is going well 🤩

@Mech_Morph_Lab @_mariod @JDamianMtzR @Bruno_MSaraiva @wmarkbates @christlet @T_Shakespeare Thank you Elias =), um grande abraço!

How do you know if a microscopy experiment can actually resolve a biological structure? Introducing VLab4Mic, a platform that predicts structural resolvability before you go to the microscope Led by @JDamianMtzR and @Bruno_MSaraiva at @HenriquesLab biorxiv.org/content/10.648…

Huge thank you to the labs of @christlet, Dylan Owen and Mark Bates, and to @T_Shakespeare, who helped us make it happen. #VLab4Mic also heavily uses data from RCSB PDB, Jonas Ries & Justin Taraska's labs
