GROW@Dresden 2026 took place yesterday and today @tudresden.bsky.social and @mpi-cbg.de: This conference explores graduate programmes and research opportunities for students of underrepresented gender identities in mathematics, especially women. @haharrington.bsky.social @math-mpicbg.bsky.social

Ever wondered how to quantify the spatial relationship between different species (eg cell co/trilocalisation)? Lovely working with this interdisciplinary team — math @nerdarajan.bsky.social @tomchaplin.xyz @majirouses.bsky.social meets oncology @leedham-simon.bsky.social @joshuabull.bsky.social

Nikola Sadovek in @haharrington.bsky.social group & Daniel McGinnis @princetonupress.bsky.social, solved a 38-year-old mathematical puzzle by finding a precise rule for when a point, line, or plane can simultaneously intersect a whole family of convex shapes. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Very grateful to work w/ @yutian.bsky.social @hirokisayama.bsky.social Renaud Lambiotte for this foundational work! It made us rethink what constitutes a "unit" of interaction, leading to the idea that grouped coherent edges can form a single interaction (matrices). Hope this brings a new angle 🙂.

Two years today! Very grateful 🙏 @mpi-cbg.de @csbdresden.bsky.social @math-mpicbg.bsky.social

Come fly with us, let's fly, let's fly away.

New interdisciplinary math+bio paper! Mouse liver assembloids model periportal architecture and biliary fibrosis. In vitro assembloids modelling the mouse liver periportal region were built to study processes causing scarring (cholestatic injury/biliary fibrosis) and the shape change this causes.

Awesome new paper in @nature.com from PhD student Benjamin Yang @benjaminojr.bsky.social from the Algebraic Systems Biology Group!

The group of Meritxell Huch @merihuchlab.bsky.social together with the Heather Harrington group @math-mpicbg.bsky.social & @oxfordmathematics.bsky.social develop next-generation organoid model that reconstructs liver architecture to better understand liver disease. www.mpi-cbg.de/news-outreac...

I posted about this paper this a while ago on another website, but figured I'd post it here now that I have a few followers. (Joint with @haharrington.bsky.social, Jacob Leygonie, @uzulim.bsky.social, and Louis Theran).
