Our newest paper is out in NCB. @jrwconway.bsky.social‬ designed a new FRET reporter, Illusia, to show the importance of integrin β1 phosphorylation dynamics in 3D invasion! Video: TNBC cells expressing Illusia with a Src (Saracatinib) or SHP2 (SHP099) inhibitor. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

🚨 New review out!
We explore how extracellular acidification shapes key processes like endocytosis, neurotransmission & immune responses — and highlight tools to study it.

We've been studying mechanisms of resilience that protect lysosomes from damage and wrote a review on the topic. We consider lysosomal stress and damage on a spectrum. Please help me share as this is my first post 😀 and I don't have many followers! 🙏 Open Access: www.embopress.org/doi/full/10....

Thrilled to share our latest publication! We describe a novel acid-dependent mechanism regulating clathrin-independent endocytosis. This study was a fantastic collaborative effort with the labs of Ludger Johannes, Roberto Weigert, and Satyajit Mayor. nature.com/articles/s4155….
