BBSRC NWD project with @parikki.bsky.social and @iamabyron.bsky.social

Come join us to look at how mechanical and oxidative stress signalling pathways converge on the synaptic scaffold protein talin.

This MRC DiMeN DTP funded project will look at the direct interactions between talin and the hypoxic response machinery to define the protective mechanisms at play in cells that protect against oxygen depletion

Want to make focal adhesions with light? Wonder what role phase separation plays in focal adhesions and what is required to create one? Check out our preprint! Thanks to @artemefremov.bsky.social and everyone involved. Stay tuned for more on this topic in the not so distant future!

We’re organizing a conference at @ijmonod.bsky.social in Paris, January 2026, in memory of M.P. Sheetz — pioneer in cell mechanics and mechanobiology, co-discoverer of kinesin, and founder of @mbisg.bsky.social. Join us to explore his legacy.

These were amazing several days at the conference organized by MBI and Max Planck Society. One of the best mechanobiology conferences I have ever seen, with three hundred researchers from all over the world, including some of the most famous ones.
@artemefremov.bsky.social tested a semi-analytical model that integrates experimental data and theory, revealing the importance of adaptor protein elasticity and local molecular clutch-ECM interactions in cell mechanosensing and force transduction during adhesion. #MBIMPG2025

It is nice to see people you know all over the world. Go MBI team!

Our study on the mechanosensitive behavior of cell adhesion, showing the existence of a force-transmission mechanism that behaves very differently from the well-known 'load-and-fail' mechanism, was published in Nature Physics:
