Out today in Nature Physics! doi.org/10.1038/s415...
It was highlighted by Brown News: brown.edu/news/2026-01...

Huge thanks to my amazing co-authors Hyuntae
@htjeong.bsky.social and Carles, and deepest gratitude to my mentor Prof. Ian Y. Wong @ianywonglab.bsky.social for leading this journey. 🧡

Published online today in Nature Physics - we show how multicellular spheroids round up and orbit, driving a deterministic transition to 3D matrix invasion at predictable locations.

Amazing work from @jiwon-kim.bsky.social, @htjeong.bsky.social and collaborators

I'm very happy to share my first article as a corresponding author published in @natmethods.nature.com !! 😍

Some groups (like us) have developed complex 3DTFM methods in the last 15 years.

BUT its usage in studies that help better understand disease or development has been almost non-existent.

Engineers and biologists join forces to explore the mysteries of vimentin intermediate filaments!

Learned so much from Ming Guo, @aaandmoore.bsky.social, Ohad Medalia, Jennifer Lippincott-Schwartz, Dave Weitz, and Bob Goldman. Thanks to @natcellbio.nature.com for thoughtful edits
