  5. Researchers have developed a novel mathematical model that treats biological tissue as a fluid composed of elongated, aligned particles to explain how surrounding cellular forces influence the speed and shape of wound closure. The model demonstrates that the structural orientation of cells around a wound actively dictates healing dynamics.

  6. Today I gave a short talk at the #EMBO workshop on Intracellular and organelle mechanobiology. I’m grateful to have been able to share my postdoc project and for the questions/comments! The whole workshop has been super interesting, I have taken a lot of inspiration away from the talks so far and I am excited to for the rest of the day/week.

  12. #Cells can surf, we maintain, with a revised version of our paper on #arXiv now !

    What they need to be is nothing more than the schematic below – a treadmilling bar in frictional contact with a soft elastic substrate. If soft enough, #symmetry breaking occurs because of the #nonlocal #feedback of these friction forces via the substrate and the cell starts to move.

  13. New #mechanobiology paper on #cancer #microenvironment. The authors show that cancer-associated #fibroblasts (CAFs) compress tumors with actomyosin supracellular contractility supported by #fibronectin deposition. This induces #YAP nuclear exit in cancer cells, limits cancer growth, and induces tumor reorganization.
