They went to war with Iran (which nobody in America was asking for) so they could conjure an excuse to allow ICE to keep murdering Americans and teargassing schools here at home with impunity (which nobody in America was asking for).

We wrote two reviews on cell migration, published today in Nature Methods.

They provides practical guidelines how to select a cell-migration assay and how to analyze cell-migration data

“A process which led from the amoeba to man appeared to the philosophers to be obviously a progress - though whether the amoeba would agree with this opinion is not known"

Organelles do NOT have a single uniform pH.
And if you think they must, because “protons diffuse fast,” this paper is for you.
A thread on why that assumption is wrong; and what we found instead. 🧵 1/n

Flagellar length control in Chlamydomonas is a paradigm for organelle size regulation. In poster 163 at CellBio2025 Sunday Dec 7, I present work by Hiro Ishikawa using a synthetic biology approach to test a length-sensing model based on diffusion of kinesin in flagella

Cells can hunt prey, solve mazes, and learn from past experience. Does this mean they can think, at some level? Find out more at our upcoming session on "Cell Behavior and Cognition" at the ASCB/EMBO #cellbio2025 meeting, Saturday 1-3 pm rm 115.

Looking forward to seeing everyone at #cellbio2025! Excited to share new work from my postdoc to measure, model, and control the interplay of tissue fluidity and multicellular patterning in a living organism. Come see me at my talk or poster (details below), or DM me if you want to meet up!

Tissue fluidity mediates a trade-off between the speed and accuracy of multicellular patterning by cell sorting The organization of cells into spatial patterns is a fundamental aspect of multicellularity. One major mechanism underlying tissue patterning is adhesion-based cell sorting, in which a heterogeneous…

Too fluid, too rigid, no patterning. Garner et al. identify tissue fluidity—how freely cells move within a tissue—as a critical regulator of adhesion-based cell sorting. Read their study to learn how tissues can tune their fluidity to enable patterning.
