Discussing vesicles and microgravity with Laura Alvarez: turns out it *is* rocket science after all! 🚀👩🚀 Andela Saric Miguel Amaral @b_maitane Felix Frey


Ready to hear our PIVOTING story? The preprint "Microtubule pivoting driven by spindle elongation rescues polar chromosomes to ensure faithful mitosis" led by Isabella Koprivec and Valentina Stimac is out. Here's a tweetorial for you! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Treadmilling, curvature and cell division by Christian Vanhille Campos Andela Saric @nartimsoole ISTAustria 😃🦠🏖️

Did you know cell filaments love to treadmill? 🔄 They grow and shrink on opposite ends and burn energy doing it! But why? How does it drive self-organisation and bacterial division? Dive into our new publication ft. Andela Saric @nartimsoole @seamus_holden labs to find out! 🧫🔬🖥️

First manuscript of the PhD in bioRxiv ! Congrats to all co-authors and specially Srishti,Ivan Palaia ,Diz-Muñoz Lab ! I think we bring forward some cool concepts and questions to the field! (Slightly biased statement😜) Check it out and stay tuned for more things to come! 🤗

The actin #cortex is attached to the #membrane via linking proteins. When these linkers get trapped in the cortex meshes, actin jams🚧, #contractility stops🛑 and cells polarise☄️Exciting collaboration (+ real fun!) with Diz-Muñoz Lab Rubén Tesoro Moreno Andela Saric 📑biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

New PhD in the family!: Chris Vanhille Campos Christian Vanhille Campos 🍸🥂🧉🧁. Chris was our stellar ☄️💫 student with many passions — from bacterial division, to vesicle reshaping, condensates, self-assembly, guitar, icey Danube 🧊, braving bears, to making softies ISTAustria happy 🍧



Very happy to be a part of this story, connecting like-charge attraction, condensates and cell division 🤩 Check out Valerio Sorichetti's beautiful tweet-skeetorial! 📃biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
