Happy to see Rashmi’s latest on embedded ncMTs at the nucleus and how they enable intercalation out @jcb.org. Congrats to her and many thanks to the constructive editors/reviewers at JCB! doi.org/10.1083/jcb....
Including the majestik møøse
A møøse once bit my sister…
Nø realli! She was Karving her initials øn the møøse with the sharpened end of an interspace tøøthbrush...
WE APOLOGISE FOR THE FAULT IN THE SUBTITLES. THOSE RESPONSIBLE HAVE BEEN SACKED.
Mind you, møøse bites Kan be pretti nasti…
Rashmi's been at the heart of what we do for the last 5+ years — she's led our work on nuclear behaviors. Such a nice defense and huge congrats to her on earning her PhD!! :-)
Alpine hiking season is here! Happy days...
... and found the Vault (thanks to Leong for the tour-de-JFarm!)
Also saw the super-res Nobel...
Back MOSAICing @hhmijanelia.bsky.social... as always a great imaging experience, and they have an open call for apps: www.aicjanelia.org/apply @aicjanelia.bsky.social
Yep! He's got skills, dashed it out just in time for the fly meeting...
He's also looking pretty spiffy these days ;-) #eliteknittingskills
Liam is repping the lab at #DROS25 — check out his talk on tiny cells and cell density effects during early morphogenesis 5PM Saturday in Ballroom A/B! @genetics-gsa.bsky.social
Thanks Stefan -- congrats on your beautiful @currentbiology.bsky.social paper as well.... Cheers!
Interfaces in the embryonic epithelium systematically rotate and their behaviors update with angle, and thus cells can participate in many more intercalations than the two predicted by simple hexagonal geometrties - the above movie shows a cell that interacts with a whopping 10 intercalating cells!
Happy to see this collab with the Loerke lab out in @jcb.org - congrats to Katie, Liam, Dinah, and all coauthors. Read more about "rectifying" interfaces here: doi.org/10.1083/jcb....
#ASCB For those interested in nuclei and/or epithelial remodeling…
Rashmi’s presenting a nice story on nuclear positioning at 1:30 Monday (P2047/B360) and Liam is exploring the impact of cell density 1:30 Tuesday (P2759/B376). See you in SD!
