๐จ๐จ New preprint ๐จ๐จ
We found that the ovary directly controls protein appetite in Drosophila.
Yes โ the ovary doesnโt just make eggsโฆ it tells the fly what to eat!

If you just want the fun, GIF-guided overview, keep reading ๐
Excited that my postdoc work was presented yesterday at #IMS2026 . Don't get too attached to your models because the joy of science is one experiment can prove them wrong!
Speaking about scalable biology, afternoon at #IMS2026 went from nano to multicellular organoids with Cecile Morlot, Helder Maiato and Catarina Brito๐คฉ
#IMS2026 D1 finishes with great @henriqueslab.bsky.social and @guijacquemet.bsky.social pushing the limits of live-cell super-resolution, democratizing AI and quantitative microscopy, and using all these to study cancer cell transmigration and attachment ๐
#IMS2026 started with @seamusholden.bsky.social on how they study the molecular machines remodelling the bacterial cell wall ๐ฆ Beautiful mix of methods on quantitative SuperResMic, morpho-dynamics, simulations, molecular biology. Note "try not to get too attached to your models, they may be wrong" ๐
#IMS2026 just started at @itqbnova and the room is full! Of great expertise and diversity ๐๐
Students and postdocs from @henriqueslab.bsky.social and @microbematos.bsky.social labs shining at #IMS2026 with intracellular infection, bacteriophages, expansion microscopy and lung on a chip๐ฅ
See you tomorrow =)
Also, the preprint describing LabConstrictor was made with love using the #RxivMaker engine created together with
@henriqueslab.bsky.social
github.com/HenriquesLab...
#RxivMaker now create ready to submit zip files for both @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social and arXiv
Super-cool work from @ivanhcenalmor.bsky.social and the @guijacquemet.bsky.social lab! LabConstrictor brings CI/CD-style automation to academic developers, turning Jupyter notebooks into one-click desktop apps. No terminal, works offline. A major tool for sharing computational methods across labs
So cool! Delivering a key missing piece twoards reproducibility in #DataScience ๐คฉ
Got a notebook youโd like to turn into a desktop app?
Explore the LabConstrictor GitHub repository ๐ github.com/CellMigratio...
And check out this demo repository built with LabConstrictor to see a simple example of the result ๐ github.com/CellMigratio...
Excited to share my first PhD project: LabConstrictor ๐๐
Have you ever created a Jupyter notebook with all your love ๐ซถ, only for others to be unable to install it ๐ฅฒ? LabConstrictor, comes to solve this!
Check out how it works in the preprint ๐ arxiv.org/abs/2603.107... or follow this thread โฌ๏ธ

Thank you @awehenkel.bsky.social @chzimmer.bsky.social @spetrella.bsky.social @curieuseny.bsky.social and everyone else not on bsky (yet)๐
For EMBO Young Investigator Erdinc Sezgin, being part of the EMBO Young Investigator Programme is a chance to connect with top scientists and build an international โ#research ecosystemโ to advance #biophysics in medicine. ๐งช https://www.embo.org/people/bridging-disciplines/ #LifeSciences #networking
๐จ We are hiring TWO postdocs to join the Cell Migration Lab (cellmig.org) ๐ซ๐ฎ as part of the new Centre of Excellence in ImmuneโEndothelial Interfaces (IMMENs).
Join us to decode immune regulation & develop next-gen imaging tools! ๐งช๐ฌ

Wuhuuuu!!
Let's get ready for a full month of training in image analysis in @pasteur.fr , this summer!
Are you interested in learning how to do bioimage analysis? For light microscopy? for cryo-EM? And for cellular cryo-EM?
Stay tuned, Pasteur offers access to THREE courses, this June.

Delighted to share our latest preprint "Filopodia-mediated trans-endocytosis"
www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
Work driven by many people including Hanna, Marcela, Sujan, Marie-Catherine, Anna and Monika. Fantastic collaboration with Johanna Englund, Emilia Peuhu, and Eija Jokitalo
As always preprint formated using the #RxivMaker engine created together with @henriqueslab.bsky.social

Thank you for bringing us along in the journey =)
Check out the tour de force by @jalehtimaki.bsky.social in its final form: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... . An elegant combination of transcriptomics, F0 screens and high end imaging unravels the cues that guide cells (here retinal horizontal cells) in an increasingly crowded tissue. #proudPI

After 15 years as Editor-in-chief (EiC), Michael Way @drmichaelway.bsky.social will be stepping down at the end of 2026 & we are seeking feedback from the cell biology community as part of the consultation process for appointing a new EiC.
