Paper now published in Current Biology! @CurrentBiology
Available here: authors.elsevier.com/a/1kPbA…
New study out on bioRxiv! We have studied how resources are shared between actin networks competing for a limited pool of components.

Not sure what to do tomorrow morning? Stop by the Theoretical Mechanobiology from Single Cell to Multicellular Level Subgroup to hear about our recent work on mechanically driven tumor cluster coattraction!
(9:15am Room 28C)
Excited to see everyone at #CellBio2024 ! I'll be there to share our work with Carlos Carmona-Fontaine's group on how tumor cell clusters coattract via the ECM 👀
Details below 👇
On my way to #CellBio2024 in San Diego! I will talk in the "Physical Biology of the cytoplasm" subgroup on saturday at 12.15pm in Room 33B! Come if we want to hear about our last results on competitive networks!

Latest #CDlab paper: Synchronization of E. coli Bacteria Moving in Coupled Microwells: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
E. coli bacteria swim in sync in weakly coupled neighboring microcavities!
Great work led by @AleksandreJapa from from Farbod Alijani's lab, to which I also contributed

Going to the #cellbio2024 #ASCB meeting in San Diego in December, @rikkigarner and I are organizing the "Physical Biology of the Cytoplasm" session.
If you are into #cellbiology, #biophysics, #softmatter, etc., join us. We have a great list of speakers lined up!

This story started 5y ago with my lab. Spearheaded by fearless 1st authors @theopi and Olivia Leland. Theopi is now a PhD student at @BrownUniversity. Olivia is a physics PhD student at @BrandeisU, a self-taught biologist, and made us love soft matter. A (very long) thread (1/24)
