Very happy to see this impressive work led by Mariana Azevedo G Oliva out 🥳

Proteins are left-handed and in the (levo) L-form. However, what could be the influence of matrix chirality on cell behavior ? To answer this, we studied cell migration on homo- and hetero-chiral mimetic peptides in our new preprint 👇🏼 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Paper alert: nature.com/articles/s4156… Nature Materials introduces the “Mean Back Relaxation” which quantifies non-equilibrium from simple passive particle trajectories. Amazing theory (M. Krüger, G.Knotz) and experiments @MunkerTill to obtain cell mechanics by simple observation🧐

📢 Do cells migrating on a confined environment have a mechanical memory of their previous state ? We tried to answer this question in our new preprint 👇🏼 biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… an outstanding work by Kalukula Yohalie and very great collab with David Brückner

Very nice!

Thermal expansion -> a typical problem in time-lapse microscopy at high resolution. Here I measure the axial shift of the focal plane of a Nikon 40x0.95 air objective at ~1.6um/K, or about ~1.5x the depth of field per degree C: github.com/amsikking/Niko…

Ivaska Lab THE review on 'everything' you have ever wanted to know about integrins in cancer, invasion and migration. Many cool new concepts highlighted from the beautiful research from experts in the field 👇@MeganChastney #VMLeppänen #JasminKaivola rdcu.be/dVB6n

N-cadherin crosstalk with integrin weakens the molecular clutch in response to surface viscosity. doi.org/10.1038/s41467…

This webinar organized by the University of Leiden is a great opportunity for people who want to learn about the possibilities in organ-on-chip technology and the solutions developed, particularly at Université de Mons by Luciano Marine Chargée de Recherches F.R.S.-FNRS 👇🏼

Our work on a new technique we call 3D micropatterned traction force microscopy (3D-μTFM) is now out: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…
