Two back-to-back stories on mitosis led by my incredible postdoc @krunovuk.bsky.social at @institutrb.bsky.social, in which we challenge the gliding model of CENP-E-driven chromosome congression! Today in @natcomms.nature.com

Excited to share my first scientific paper! In this work, we combine multiplex cell biology, biophysical techniques, and mathematical modeling to explore how chromatin biomechanics regulate spindle size across eukaryotic species in both mitosis and meiosis. Check it out!
