A new study by Silvia Caballero Heisenberg Lab ISTAustria & colleagues, published in Nature Physics, shows how sea squirt oocytes harness friction forces within various compartments in their interior to undergo developmental changes after conception.

Santa arrived a bit late to the Heisenberg lab! 🎅😉 To get over Jan/ Feb blues❄️, we celebrated a slightly delayed Secret Santa with lots of yummy pizza🍕 and lovely gifts🎁 Any time is a good time for good food and presents 😉🤩🥳

Woohoo! Congratulations to our postdoc Nikhil Mishra for winning the first prize for his oral talk on cell cycle synchrony in zebrafish embryos at #CMMDR2024 Shiv Nadar University, Delhi NCR 🤩🎉 Great going, Nikhil!! 🥳🙌

Are you heading to #EESBioOsc EMBL Events EMBL Heidelberg? Make sure to stop by poster #54 to learn about cell cycle synchronisation in 🐟 embryos from our postdoc Nikhil Mishra!

We are thrilled to have been awarded the FWF Principal Investigator Project Grant to study the role of Keratins in epithelial tissue spreading! 🥳 Thank you FWF for your support!🙏 👇Keratin (green) & Utrophin (red) expression in 🐟embryo,🎥movie courtesy- Suyash Naik

Folks heading to #EESMechanobiology EMBL Heidelberg, make sure to hear our postdoc Naoya Hino talk about his work on 'Mechanosensitive cell shape transitions underlying epithelial tissue spreading' on Wednesday, 17th April! 🎥👇from Naoya showing Ca2+ (G) & actin (M) in 🐟 embryo

Here's the first from our 'Behind The Bench' series! We talk to Nikhil Mishra from Heisenberg Lab. Nikhil gives us a peek into his work and his journey to becoming a post-doc ISTAustria. Read more here: insdb.in/nikhil-mishra-…

Our PhD student Suyash Naik will be presenting his work at the Gordon Research Conferences on #IntermediateFilaments, TODAY at 6 pm! Make sure to attend to learn how the mechanosensitive crosstalk between #keratins and contractility mediate epithelial #morphogenesis in #zebrafish 🐟

Congratulations to Suyash Naik for winning a prize for his marvellous talk at the Gordon Research Conferences on #IntermediateFilaments! 🥳 Suyash took the audience by storm with his fantastic movies and data👏🏼 here’s a sneak peak of what to expect soon from him 😉👇 🎥👇Keratin-GFP in 🐠embryo
