Targeting the cell membrane in established and emerging model organisms Summary: Screening a toolkit of diverse membrane-localising tags identifies candidates that efficiently localise proteins to the plasma membrane in a wide range of animals and choanoflagellates.

Finding molecular tags that localise fluorescent proteins to the cell membrane was the goal of our latest paper, now published in Development @dev-journal.bsky.social. The tags act as address labels, sending proteins to the cell membrane, where they highlight the shape and arrangement of cells. 2/9

Just 8h and I’m there :)

The CODA workflow works for:
- any tissue type (eye, kidney, pancreas, brain,...)
- any disease (cancer, fibrosis, diabetes,...)
- any species (human, mouse, rhesus macaque, ...)

It can be integrated with any spatial omic technique (CODEX, Visium, IF, IHC,..)

Is Conda actually free? The conda package manager and conda-forge are free and open source, but Anaconda's repository requires a paid license for organizations with more than 200 employees.

Adhesion differentials control the rheology of biomimetic emulsions Animal morphogenesis involves complex tissue deformation processes, which require tight control over tissue rheology. Yet, it remains insufficiently understood how tissue rheology results from the…

#OPENACCESS: Biomimetic emulsions behave like a crowd at a party—some guests cling, others drift. Quentin Guigue et al. (2026) show how these adhesion vibes tune the flow, turning mixtures from chill to jam-packed dance floors.

How can we learn tissue mechanics directly from cell patterns and images?

In our new preprint, we introduce VertAX, a differentiable vertex-model framework in JAX for simulating epithelia, inferring parameters, and designing target tissue behaviors.
