We and many others have had fun in recent years developing light-controlled receptor tyrosine kinases like EGFR and FGFR. Here we report that our OptoEGFR induces collective cell migration into illuminated regions. (Weirdly, OptoFGFR actually drives cells *away* from the light)

It was fun to speak at and chair with @guijacquemet the session on #mechanics in #cancer #EACR2024 Great talks by Sara Zanivan & Scita_Lab

A small contribution to a neat story of tri contacts among organelles with relevant migratory consequences (PM-ER-Mito) by Sara Sigimund’ lab "A tripartite organelle platform links growth factor receptor signaling to mitochondrial metabolism" NatCom. rdcu.be/dKSTu

Since long time we tried to achieve “permanent” labelling of plasma membranes. Now it become possible with MemGraft probes, which exploit a new principle of lipid-directed covalent fluorescent labeling of membrane proteins. The MemGraft probes are compatible with fixation,

Deep learning's success in bioimaging comes at the expense of lack of biologically meaningful interpretations. In a new Comment we discuss the motivation, current state, and future potential of Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) in bioimaging 💫 rdcu.be/dQuwH

Excited to announce…..it’s finally arrived (!!) nature.com/articles/s4155… A big thank-you to my team (particularly Robert Ju), co authors & #FutureFellowship funding from Australian Research Council Importantly- a big shoutout to Daryl JV David Nature Cell Biology for their support. 👇tweetorial 👇

very curious about the interactions and talks at esi.ac.at/events/e519/ In Vienna

Our Thematic Programme: Linking Microscopic Processes to the Macroscopic Rheological Properties in Inert and Living Soft Materials continues, organized by Roberto Cerbino, Emanuela Del Gado, and Prof. Giuseppe Foffi. Find the full schedule of talks here: esi.ac.at/events/e519/

The first session of the Erwin Schrödinger Institute CECAM workshop "Failure in soft materials" is almost over. Great talks by Edouard Hannezo and Helene Delanoë-Ayari are already raising a bunch of interesting questions! Good way to start.

The 2nd day of our Erwin Schrödinger Institute CECAM workshop "Failure in soft materials" has begun with Scita_Lab relaxing after a very rich talk about percolation and flocking in cell collectives and Dapeng "Max" Bi answering a lot of questions during his talk on rheology of tissue

And we are back for the third day of the Erwin Schrödinger Institute CECAM workshop "Failure in soft materials" with two talks from @G_Charras and Alessandra Bonfanti about tissue rheology and fracture

Mathieu Leocmach, Irmgard Bischofberger and close our morning session (including music and yogurt) and accompany us to lunch

Our programme on Linking Microscopic Processes to the Macroscopic Rheological Properties in Inert and Living Soft Materials is going well, with a nice dinner at a Viennese wine-garden planned for the evening. You can find all the recorded talks here: youtube.com/playlist?list=…

And for the last day of our Erwin Schrödinger Institute CECAM workshop we started this morning with two very exciting talks by Mazi Jalaal and Dogic Lab on physical aspects of plants and multi-component active soft networks

It’s a lonely job, leading a research group (professor, principal investigator, group leader – whatever you call it). You talk all day with everyone, but you’re mostly alone with the doubts and risks of the biggest decisions. Doesn’t have to be this way and I’d love to change it.

Principal Investigator (PI) position available in IFOM to study #AGING & #Cancer : ifom.eu/en/job-opportu… Join us in Milan to make a difference in this booming field! Please circulate this exciting opportunity 🚀🚀

I'll be there😊

“One- and two-particle microrheology of soft materials based on optical-flow image analysis”. Our new article (with Fabio Manuel Escobedo Gardel Lab) in Soft Matter shows you simpler way to microrheology pubs.rsc.org/en/Content/Art…

My heart is broken as I announce the passing of my beloved husband, science partner and friend, Michael Sheetz. A remarkable scientist we packed 40 years of living into 20. Rejuvenation of senescent cells and mice in Press in Aging Cell; his last words were this was his best work

Thank you to organisers Marco Foiani marco foiani, Ana-Maria Lennon-Duménil Lennon Lab, Victoria Sanz-Moreno Vicky Sanz-Moreno & Giorgio Scita Scita_Lab and everyone who joined us for this week's Workshop 'Mechanometabolism Unleashed: The Interface of Cell Mechanics and Metabolism'
