📢Hot off the press: our review on "tissue active matter" Together with Edouard Hannezo, we review theoretical approaches for tissue dynamics, integrating active mechanics, cell-cell interactions and biochemical signaling Now out in CSH Perspectives: ➡️cshperspectives.cshlp.org/content/early/…


Our new review on @filopodia is out in Trends in Cell biology. It is an easy to read review combining theoretical models with experimental findings. sciencedirect.com/science/articl… Please contact me if you need the pdf file. [email protected]


Excited to share our paper in Nature Communications! We developed a system of deformable active cell mimics & observed a reentrant #jamming transition mediated by cell shape changes. #active #glassy #cellshape #research #confluent @Rajesh_JNCASR @AjaySoodIISC Saroj Kumar Nandi

Here is a visual essay summarising the latest paper on Active Polymers from Shashi Thutupalli lab! 🧵Scroll to learn how biophysicists are trying to mimic living systems to create synthetic self-morphing active matter. MANOJ SHARMA Link to the publication: nature.com/articles/s4146… (1/7)



New paper out in PNASNews: how is gliding motility of microorganisms like malaria parasites determined by cell shape and surface flow? Great work by fabulous PhD-student Leon Lettermann, with Falko Ziebert and inspiration by Freddy Frischknecht, Christina Hueschen and TardieuXlab. 1/9

📢Protocol from the lab: we discuss positions taken up by #zebrafish embryos in a chorion + how to image from multiple angles whole embryos with cellular scale #resolution #lightsheet microscopy Tata Institute of Fundamental Research JoVE Swetha Nagarajan Siddhartha Bardhan 1/n jove.com/t/66735/light-…

Happy to highlight the work of Judit Sastre and Advait Thatte from the Mesoscopic Physics of Life (MPol) - Weber Group! We found spontaneous oscillations in synthetic cells. When continuously supplied with chemical fuel, the number of organelles and their location start oscillating. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
