Have you ever thought about inflating tissues?
Or maybe quickly deflating those inflated tissues?

New #EpithelialMechanics pre-print: doi.org/10.1101/2025...
🧵 with pressure control, multiscale buckling, controlled wrinkling

What do we see when looking at cells under the microscope? 👉Some are bigger than others, some are elongated and align with the neighbors & others seem to move. Cool, right? But wouldn't it be cooler to quantify these observations?

I'm @juliaeckert.bsky.social. Let's explore some analysis software!‬

I’m excited to share that I have started my PhD at The University of Queensland and the Institute for Molecular Bioscience under the mentorship of Prof. Alpha Yap.
Looking forward to this new chapter of discovery and growth! #PhD #EpithelialMechanics

How do hydraulic forces impact critical processes such as tissue integrity, cell fate decisions, and embryo development?

Hydraulics studies how fluids move and exert forces.

Join me in exploring few articles on hydraulics in #EpithelialMechanics

Happy to share our new publication in
@naturematerials.bsky.social
on mechanical cell competition! Great collaboration between our CAM team, Chavrier's and Doostmohammadi's. Special congrats

Tissues are dynamic and investigating cellular mechanical states can be crucial for understanding biological processes. But how to do it?

We are @andreasschoenit.bsky.social and @luanger.bsky.social from @bladoux.bsky.social / @rmmege.bsky.social lab highlighting ways to assess tissue stresses.

🚨Postdoc vacancy alert!

Interested to work on apoptosis/inflammation? Have some experience in biosensor-imaging and quantitative analysis of dynamic systems?

Check out my thread on mechanical cell competition! Thanks for @epimechfc.bsky.social for the opportunity.

Ever wonder how cells in our epithelia fight for space? 🤔

Let's dive into the fascinating world of mechanical cell competition! #EpithelialMechanics

Hello, I am @akshar21.bsky.social and I'll be your guide through this thread on mechanical #CellCompetition
