Kudos to you and beyond proud ❣️
Looking forward to seeing all the incredible things you’ll continue to accomplish !!

Measuring and manipulating mechanical forces during development - Nature Cell Biology This Review discusses the recent advances in experimental approaches to interrogate the mechanical forces that mediate tissue deformations during development, highlighting the insights afforded at bot...

Happy to share our review on methodology for measuring and manipulating mechanical forces with specific focus on developmental biology! Congrats to authors @clemvilleneuve.bsky.social @mccreery.bsky.social and hats off to the community for developing awesome tools www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Here’s a story about actual Nazis, the Original Gastruloid, and the lengths scientists will go for other scientists and for science itself. Welcome to Episode Two of the #LongBibliography

Show and tell - the Node Show and tell To provide more visual content on the Node, we are starting a new series called ‘Show and tell’. The aim of these short posts is to act

Images and videos are great at catching people's attention 📸👀

Check out our 'Show and tell' series, where researchers use an image or a video to hook you into reading more about a paper or a technique that's of interest to the #DevBio community:

A case for broadening our view of mechanism in developmental biology ABSTRACT. Developmental biologists can perform studies that describe a phenomenon (descriptive work) and/or explain how the phenomenon works (mechanistic work). There is a prevalent perception that mo...

'We wondered how mechanistic questions, particularly at the molecular/genetic level, came to dominate developmental biology, questioned whether there truly is strong consensus amongst our colleagues, and considered whether a revision of our attitudes about mechanism is needed.'

The 10th edition of CellMech 2025, which my lab is co-organizing in Sept-Oct ‘25, has officially opened the abstract submission portal! cellmech2025.org

We are thrilled to announce our amazing list of keynote speakers, who will help us to make this conference a major event in mechanobiology!

Thank you! This is super helpful

Tis the season to be jolly ! Merry Christmas 🎄🎆❤️

Wonderful

what a dynamic steady state! how does assembly match exactly the disassembly rate? how does it distribute in space without rupturing the cell in multiple pieces? fascinating movie!

How much fun is too much fun? 😁

Narnia ?

On days when you are just too overwhelmed, remind yourself of some good microscopy images :)
