Welcome Mauricio! We are excited to have you at our institute!

Join us for the next DGZ, @DGZ.bsky.social Focus Workshop on #celladhesion and #extracellularmatrix , Tuesday April 30 at noon in Zoom, organized by Carsten Grashoff and Wickstrom-Lab. Speakers: Srishti Rangarajan Universität Münster, Ingo Thievessen, Dr. Amaia Cipitria, Julian Nüchel (PhD) ⬇️

Congratulations Clementine 🥳💪 Exciting times ahead!

We are delighted to announce our second cohort of Pathway to Independence Fellows, with whom we will be working over the next year as they look for their first independent position. Find out more about these eight talented postdocs: journals.biologists.com/dev/pages/pife…

🔎 A new review looks at tissue-scale mechanical state transitions, their molecular and cellular interactions, and their roles in organismal development, disease, and more.

Now that's comprehensive!
