Glad you enjoyed it! :) I loved your book!!
1/14 βEpithelialβ & βMesenchymalβ arenβt binary categoriesβthey form a spectrum, or better yet, a multidimensional space. This becomes especially clear in collective cell migration, which often depends on a finely tuned degree of βmesenchymal-nessβ.

Thrilled to share our new review article!
βThe role of extracellular matrix viscoelasticity in development and diseaseβ written together with Olivia Courbot is now published in npj Biological Physics and Mechanics. www.nature.com/articles/s44...

A membrane proximal actin probe (MPAct) in fly macrophages unveils an actin cortex interconnected with the lamellar network. The homeostatic balance of these two actin networks is coordinated by the cortical-regulator, Moesin. Amazing work from @besaizsanchez.bsky.social and team.

For anyone interested in #extracellularmatrix. From fundamental questions in #DevBio to alterations in disease using interdisciplinary approaches across model organisms. And in an amazing research environment in Manchester (with some occasional fun in London π)!
The dream of technology is now under the control of men who are vain, foolish, self-centred, amoral, desperate for power, and in some cases openly fascistic. iandunt.substack.com/p/how-to-res...
Eugenics, statistical hubris, and unknowable unknowns in human genetics www.wiringthebrain.com/2025/01/euge... - my response to a paper proposing editing the genomes of human embryos
Human embryo editing against disease is unsafe and unproven β despite rosy predictions rdcu.be/d5Cqr- critical commentary by @shaicarmi.bsky.social, @hankgreely.bsky.social and myself
For my first post I want to revive a video that I made some years ago during my PhD at the Stramer lab.
