Interested in cell migration yet bored of the canonical translocation modes? 😴 Don’t worry — we @nordenlab.bsky.social with @aiopticalbiolab.bsky.social have multipolar migration back in stock! No need to follow the other cells: extend long protrusions and roam more freely🪼 in the crowded brain.

- A postdoc to work on cancer extravasation (4-year project).
- A postdoc help in completing Filopodia-related lab projects (2-year).
- Multiple Marie Curie postdoc positions that will open in the fall.
- We will open a 5-year position to cover my teaching (70% research and 30% teaching).

I'm grateful for the Research Council of Finland for granting me the Academy Research fellowship! After getting over the shock I will soon move back to Finland to start as a group leader at the Institute of Biotechnology @helsinki.fi. Looking for a PhD student soon! www.aka.fi/en/about-us/...

Hot from the press for #CellMigration + #Nucleus aficionados

Karling @helenweavers.bsky.social lab show *in vivo* how immune cell adapt quickly to confined microenvironments during motility.

Mitochondria consist of networks of cylindrical tubes, right? Not necessarily! - in our new preprint, @gavsturm.bsky.social investigates how mitochondria transiently adopt a beads-on-a-string morphology

Mix two motors of opposite polarity with microtubules and they will partition space !
Microtubules will get organized in polar and active barriers, sorting the two motors in separated domains, leading to the emergence of a new type of patterns.

Introductory post on 🦋! We're a research group headed by Prof. Johanna Ivaska interested in understanding how integrins contribute to every step of cancer progression. We're located at the Turku Bioscience Center in Turku, Finland! Find out more about us and our interests here: ivaskalab.utu.fi

Hi everyone! Kicking off my first #FluorescenceFriday here with a 3D SIM image of actin, and of course had to go with my favorite blue LUT (JDM Duo Intense Cyan) for Bluesky.

In the aftermath of last weeks disaster I exited social media for a week. Today I came back here to find to my delight that the reassembly of science twitter has dramatically accelerated. Welcome/hello to the nearly 500 people who followed me in the last 6 days-we can make this a place for science!!
