Ever wondered what a hardened heart looks like? Dr. Jennifer Young's study on the effects of young&old heart ECM on young&old heart cells holds the answer! Great talk #cmbe2025 NUS

Great start to the 2025 MBI Weekly Seminars with a super engaging talk by Sheng S.-H. Chen from IMB Academia Sinica on how ferroptotic (iron-dependent cell death) trigger waves behave similarly to a wild fire to initiate and propagate large scale cell death during development.

.kashish jain et al. show that #integrins form STARnodes—long-lived #nanoclusters that regulate mechanosignaling by organizing key proteins (FAK, paxillin, vinculin) within adhesions. 🔬 Mechanobiology Institute Read it here 🔗 go.acs.org/c7R

Our heartfelt condolences to Linda and all affected by this devastating news. Prof Michael Sheetz was an inspirational Founding Director of MBI and we would not be here today without his foresight and leadership. We hope to continue his legacy in mechanobiology for years to come.

New preprint by Yuting Lou! biorxiv.org/content/10.110… We added detailed calculations, more case studies, and discussions on applicability, to Lou et al PRL '23. Fruitful collaboration with Sophie Theis, Timothy Saunders and JF Rupprecht - OM team starting at MBI! Thank you all and Mechanobiology Institute !
