@clairedessalles.bsky.socialTo continue our #Inktober & #Spooktober theme, we are highlighting the use of real #zebrafish embryos as our canvas! 🎨🐟🥚 Enjoy these spooky "Fish-O-Lanterns" expressing a photo-activated fluorescent protein 🎃 Credit to @harrymcnamara.bsky.social & @adamezracohen.bsky.social 🤩 #NoAI #ZebrafishZunday
Show PostNew preprint! Migrating cell clusters have an asymmetric shape, with higher contact angle at the rear and lower at the front. We explained it by treating the tissue as an active droplet driven by asymmetric tractions! arxiv.org/abs/2610.03536
Show PostWhat determines how epithelial cells divide when shape cues disappear? Our new work in @natcomms.nature.com shows that divisions follow maximal stress anisotropy — a “principal-stress rule” beyond Hertwig’s long-axis rule. Fantastic work led by @luanger.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...
