@zqing.bsky.socialLiving nematic circuits in coastal mud! 🌊 Excited to share our new preprint: doi.org/10.64898/202... A cool ecosystem-derived living material integrates communication & memory in collectives without neurons. #PrakashLab #TidalFlat #Diatoms #LivingLiquidCrystal #Nematic #ActiveMatter #Biophysics
Show PostHow "hot" is "hot" for a cell ? Amazing work by @hbrappap.bsky.social & @oliverio.bsky.social & all authors. Makes you think a tad about how a cell can polymerize its cytoskeleton at these temperatures !
Show PostLovely to see several pieces of our ctenophore work featured in this beautiful new story from @quantamagazine.org 🪼 Great piece by @mstarling.bsky.social, also featuring work by @stevehaddock.bsky.social, @arnausebe.bsky.social & @hejnol.bsky.social. www.quantamagazine.org/ctenophores-...

Show PostHere it is my 1st preprint about synapse and rhomboid intramembrane protease: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... Using imaging and biochemistry, together with @adamgrieve.bsky.social we identify RHBDL2 as a membrane-immersed regulator of synapses architecture. 1/2
