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.

👋Hello #mechanobiology community!

Next year we are organizing the CellMech conference in Leuven!

We will soon be announcing (super amazing) invited speakers, registration deadlines, etc

I'll try to keep the🦋community updated, but best is to subscribe to the mailing list 📧👇

Seems like a good time to post this:
Our centre is recruiting a tenure-track PI with focus on basic research into regenerative medicine and disease mechanisms. Excellent start-up package, colleagues & infrastructure in a fantastic college town.Other useful links below

Thanks Eliott for the shout out! Fantastic work from Tingtin ( Matteo Palma lab at #QMUL ) and Caoimhe, using the Nanofrazor for high-res patterning: pubs.rsc.org/en/content/a...

Ever wondered where to neatly store DNA origami? Try 50-nm diameter nanoholes—patterned with the #NanoFrazor! 🔬 These nanoholes expand to 180 nm after oxygen plasma, making room for single DNA origami.🧪

Check out the fascinating results from @tiskratsch.bsky.social here: doi.org/10.1039/D4MA...

🔬Precision at the Nanoscale: 3D Sculpting with the NanoFrazor🧪 This week, the brilliant minds behind #NanoFrazor at the Heidelberg Instruments Nano will be curating @underthemicroscope.bsky.social account.🤩 More details👇🎙️🎧 #Science #Physics⚛️ #nanoscience #materialsscience #ChemSky
