Check our work on sodium channel. We are very proud of this study.

📢Excited to share our new paper in Nature Physics
@naturephysics.bsky.social: Cooperative hydrodynamics accompany multicellular-like colonial organization in the unicellular Stentor!

How do single-celled organisms benefit from teamwork? Let’s dive in! #Multicellularity nature.com/articles/s41...?

Interested in how the heart generates contractile forces to pump blood? Then take a look at our new paper "α- and β-myosin II can be non-uniformly distributed within the cardiac sarcomere". #CellBiology

I am excited to finally be able to share with you our work reporting the first Extracellular Vesicle with a personality! This video does not show a cell, it is a Blebbisome! #CellBiology

Some happy news. Pleased to see our paper showing how afadin strengthens cytoskeletal engagement by the cadherin-catenin cell adhesion complex out in Science Advances: bit.ly/3EFpD6h

It’s been a tough few weeks. My 10yo daughter was diagnosed with a very rare, aggressive cancer called interdigitating dendritic cell sarcoma (IDCS). I’m reaching out to identify clinicians/patients who have encountered pediatric IDCS or other (non-LCH) dendritic or histiocytic sarcomas cases.

If you have been affected by the fires in LA, or are concerned about your ability to keep precious Drosophila strains going during the latest funding crisis, we will host your strains as a backup. Please email me.

Please amplify. If you are also able to host fly strains, add your name as well.

My first post on this forum! 😄

I am happy to share that our #openaccess review on the #molecular mechanisms of #actin filament polymerization and dissasembly is now online @cp-trendscellbio.bsky.social

Big thanks to my amazing colleagues in Dortmund

If you were to look for changes in gene expression in cells differentiating into neurons related to the microtubule cytoskeleton, what genes would you look to be up-regulated? HDACs? Glutamylases? Detyrosinases? Down-regulated?

I’m looking for a motivated postdoc to join my lab with a structural biology background. Reach out to me if you are interested in the structure-function studies of actin cytoskeleton and membrane repair processes.
