Postdoc at UNIGE @MGG lab. Fascinated by early embryonic divisions - currently working on the choreography of anaphase in 🐟
We found cytoplasmic flows, that emerge specifically in anaphase and move chromosomes! We combined experiments and theory to show that flows scale purely by cell confinement and ultimately scale anaphase!

New paper alert! ‼️‼️
Super happy to share that my postdoc paper is finally out!

1/3 We looked at scaling of chromosome separation during anaphase in zebrafish embryos.
