InSDB25 is here! This year’s meeting will be held in Dec at IISER Berhampur as a joint meeting with the International Society of Differentiation. We’ve got an incredible lineup, and we can’t wait to share more details. Keep an eye out for more updates: insdb.in/events/insdb-i…

Fascinating in vivo tracking of collective cell migration under confinement PNASNews! Reveals self-organized antiparallel streams and compressive ECM deformation. Now wondering: How do single cells navigate these complex microenvironments? 🤔 -LY www-pnas-org.libproxy1.nus.edu.sg/doi/10.1073/pn…

I’m delighted to share that I am starting as an Assistant Professor National Centre for Biological Sciences! Our lab will explore how mechanical forces shape organ architecture, regulate germ cell fate, and drive collective cell migration- using C. elegans as a model system.

Very excited to guest edit a thematic issue on 'Systems-Mechanobiology' with Mohit Kumar Jolly and Tanmay Lele. Mechanical properties are increasingly recognised as critical parts for the functioning of biological systems (and perturbed in diseases). Please submit your work in this area

📢Excited to share our new paper in Nature Physics! How do single-celled organisms benefit from teamwork and behave like multicellular organisms? Paper: nature.com/articles/s4156… Interested? shekharlab.org

Today, we report the first independent study from our lab describing a new technology for live imaging and manipulation of homeostatic microglia (brain-resident macrophages) in the brain. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

📢 Preprint alert 📢 (1/6) Our work on 3D force inference for intestinal organoids is now on bioRxiv: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Stunning collaboration between Oliver Drozdowski and Kim Boonekamp from the lab of Michael Boutros and with Ulrike Engel. A short🧵...

Thank you Nature Methods for highlighting our recent paper on "spatial mechano-transcriptomics" in your April issue😀: nature.com/articles/s4159… nature.com/articles/s4159…

You like risk, I like risk, We like risk! We write HFSP? Our lab is open to hosting HFSP PDFs. 🎉 hfsp.org/funding/hfsp-f…

Excited to announce that MBI-MPG Conference 2025: Mechanobiology in Time and Space. Dates: 9-12 Sep 2025 Venue: Shaw Foundation Alumni House, NUS, Singapore Website: mbi.nus.edu.sg/events/mbiconf… The deadline for early bird registration is May 31, 2025 Join us!

Renormalisation is a central concept in modern physics. It describes how the dynamics of a system change at different scales. A great way to understand and visualise renormalisation is the Ising model (some math, but one can follow without it ) 1/13

Today, we are launching the first publicly available AI Scientist, via the FutureHouse Platform. Our AI Scientist agents can perform a wide variety of scientific tasks better than humans. By chaining them together, we've already started to discover new biology really fast. With
