even impressed when seeing it virtually

Job alert! If you have a bioengineering or soft matter background, and expertise in biomaterials, nanomedicine, cell therapy and/or soft materials, come and join us! go.nature.com/3W7HMwr

The CytoMorpho Lab is recruiting ! We have a two-year postdoc fellowship to study the scaling of actin-based structures in living cells. The position is available in Grenoble. cytomorpholab.com/index.php/job_… please RT

Questions about the basic rules of life keep you awake at night? What define the cell size? What is the difference between two 10-micron long cells and a cell of 20 microns? What happen if we induce the fusion of the two cells? #ThisJobIsForYou

A nice program to celebrate 20 years of cell mechanics in Marseille, 26-29 sept 2023 cellmech2023.inviteo.fr

Microtubules are cellular mechano-sensors. They freeze in response to 10% cellular deformation. Read here the amazing work of Yuhui Li now published in Nature Materials : rdcu.be/dfGtW

🙌 Big thanks to our incredible team, THERY Manuel, and Laurent Blanchoin, for their collaboration and dedication to publishing our work in Nature Materials! It's a testament to our collective efforts in advancing microtubule mechano-sensation in vivo.

Centrosome linker diversity: #Ninein, #Rootletin & #CNap1 contribute specific functions to #centrosome clustering and spindle formation, some of which matter in cells with extra #centrosomes Laura Theile, Xue Li, Elmar Schiebel et al Uni Heidelberg embopress.org/doi/full/10.15…

Registrations are open for an amazing course at the interface between physics and biology Institut Curie training.institut-curie.org/courses/multis…

Where does hematopoietic cell diversity come from? Asymmetric division is one of the answers. Can specific interactions govern the asymmetric division of the hematopoietic progenitors? Join me on my earliest journey!! Now on biorxiv!!!🧵🥰⬇️ biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Our structures of the #cardiac #sarcomere are now published in nature! With #teamtomo at Stefan Raunser lab, we've used #CryoET to unveil how #myosin and #actin filaments arrange in #muscle relaxed with #mavacamten. Great collaboration with Gautel Lab! doi.org/10.1038/s41586… 🧵

Did you know it's free to publish in Journal of Cell Science? No page charges, no colour charges, no hidden fees. We also offer Open Access options. If you're at #cellbio2023 and want to find out more, find us at booth 538.

unvelievable but true. we did it! publish for free!

New from the SandoghdarLab! μkiss is a micropipette-based approach for delivering very small amounts of nanoparticles and small molecules to the cell surface with exquisite spatiotemporal control, enabling a wide range of biological investigations. nature.com/articles/s4159…

Harriet Saunders, Cyntha van de Berg, et al. show how ciliary tip proteins cooperate to make slow growing #microtubules in their new preprint! Together they form a structure that looks like a champagne cork in a #microtubule 😍 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

wow ! the specific tubulin centrioles and cilia are made off !!

A surprise gift of « new curve crease origami » we call Lacrygami brought to us by a single cell (this is the first example of origami in a single cell)!! Will write a longer thread shortly describing our journey to discovery - in mean time, enjoy this beautiful cell.

I have been fooled by such images. They very much suggest that the balance of pulling forces along microtubules center the array. ...
