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.

Thrilled to share our latest study on how mechanical forces drive cell competition! Congratulations to @andreasschoenit.bsky.social, S. Monfared, and L. Anger.

Curious about active boundaries, stress fluctuations, and intercellular forces in cell competition? 👇

Evolution of myoblast interactions (actin and myosin) from www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

I am delighted to share our new preprint in which we reveal the crucial role for mechanical forces in myoblast fusion. Great work from Yoann, Sushil and Aleksandra and great collaboration with Christophe Marcelle and Amin Doostmohammadi!
