How do cells establish and maintain their individuality with such precision? 🦠 A team led by Jan Brugués at the Cluster of Excellence @poldresden.bsky.social at TUD Dresden University of Technology has uncovered fundamental mechanisms that shed light on this question.

🎉Exciting new findings out in @nature.com today by the Brugués lab! @brugueslab.bsky.social @mpi-cbg.de
👨🔬 The authors describe how physical instability of the cytoskeleton works with the cell cycle to drive organization in the embryo during early development
Read our press release: tud.link/kctu4s
Really excited to share our new paper in @nature.com! We uncovered how a physical instability of the cytoplasm coupled with the cell cycle drives cytoplasmic partitioning in early embryos #zebrafish #drosophila. Read more in this🧵 www.nature.com/articles/s41... 🤩

Congratulations to researchers in the group of @anne-grapin.bsky.social, PoL PI and director at @mpi-cbg.de for publishing an exciting new method to create functional acinar cells, opening new avenues for organoid research. 🧫
🎥 Exciting BTS from our new film project!
As we start our new chapter at PoL, we’re creating some films to showcase our cutting edge research, career opportunities, and more..
Here’s a sneak peek of what to expect. We can’t wait to share the films with you, coming soon! 🌱✨
🎉PoL PI Elias Barriga @eliasbarrigalab.bsky.social was recently featured in an exciting news piece about bioelectricity research by Quanta magazine @quantamagazine.bsky.social.
Curious? Check it out below! ⚡👨🔬
🎉New findings in PRX from @fischerfriedriclab.bsky.social at PoL overturn a long-standing belief in biophysics about living systems.
Using AFM, the authors have found that time irreversibility is a better signature of cellular activity than effective temperature
Read our news here: tud.link/wu3t36
New paper out: AFM-tip fluctuations inside the actin cortex reveal that effective temperature can remain unchanged while time-irreversibility/entropy production drop (turnover inhibition). #CellMechanics #ActiveMatter #Nonequilibrium
