Cell dynamics revealed by microscopy advances, from the Legant lab sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Anna Akhmanova and myself wrote a comment for Current Biology about this publication. We put it back into the context of previous works, summarized the most convincing parts and pointed at exciting questions about MT dynamics and cell migration. authors.elsevier.com/a/1jYNi3QW8S6F…

Cells move through the body to perform everyday functions but how they do this, especially in a crowded tissue environment, is a mystery. 🕵️‍♀️ Research by Dr Dr. Samantha Stehbens PhD defines a new set of principles on how cells experience and survive compression. 🔗 bit.ly/3T7zcPX

Big news y'all -- I'm excited to announce that I recently joined the faculty of UT Austin, where I'm building a CPRIT-funded lab exploring cytomorphic signaling in cancer and beyond. Without exaggeration, this is a dream come true. Let's get to work! theWeemslab.com

CLASPing and squeezing during cell migration | Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology nature.com/articles/s4158…

"The authors have uncovered an elegant adaptive feedback mechanism in which microtubules function as a mechanostat by becoming reinforced in response to compression and enabling cells to orchestrate spatiotemporal contractility to squeeze the nucleus through a tight space."💪💪💪

Navigate is out, an open-source, Python-based LSFM control software with easily reconfigured hardware controls. nature.com/articles/s4159… Congrats Zach Marin , Xiaoding Wang , Kevin Dean , and all involved. They put in quite some effort.

The future of microscopy is "smart" and software tools like 'navigate' from Kevin Dean and colleagues for controlling light-sheet microscopes will be a critically important part of that! nature.com/articles/s4159…

Everybody start navigating! Congrats Zach Marin Kevin Dean Reto Fiolka & crew! #lightsheet #Microscopy
