Dr of squishy stuff 💫🦠🧊🐇🪱🦑💕 EMBO & MSCA postdoc with Guillaume Charras on the molecular origins of tissue mechanics, after my PhD with Gijsje Koenderink on synthetic cell morphogenesis
As much as Dresden is tempting me outside, a fantastic day 1 of #25EngLife has been worth being completely stuck indoors. Looking forward to the interesting sessions to come!

Ever wondered how your body's tissues deal with recurring mechanical challenges? Check out our thread on cyclic loading via the epithelial mechanics fan club!
Synthetic materials accumulate damage with every mechanical challenge. Epithelial tissues are regularly loaded, yet healthy epithelia rarely rupture. Why?

We are @epmech.bsky.social and @baldaufsci.bsky.social and in this thread we introduce you to cyclic loading.

119 EMBO Fellows from 30+ countries attended the EMBO Fellows’ Meeting in Heidelberg, DE from 27 June–1 July. #Research was shared and connections formed – an incredible opportunity for #networking and #collaboration. Thank you to all who joined and were part of this vibrant community! 🧪

That's a wrap on the first full day at #DPG spring meeting in Regensburg! Many more interesting things to come this week. If you'd like to chat about forces, mechanics or synbio tools in living tissues, come find me at my poster (BP17.76) tomorrow night!
