"White Americans are not afraid of the cops. White Americans are never afraid of the cops. Even when they are committing insurrection." --Just a few words from @JoyAnnReid moments ago on MSNBC, in one of the most powerful statements I've ever heard on television.

Watch the movies while reading our newest. Great work from Jasmin Imran Alsous, with Nicolas, Jonathan Jackson, and Frank Mason. Another great collaboration with Jörn Dunkel's group who provide the critical connection to balloons. MIT Biology pnas.org/content/118/10…

It's #DBIOtweetorial time! Your host, Wallace Marshall. Welcome to 10 Crazy Things Cells Do. We hope to get you thinking about the complexity of cells + challenges in learning physical principles that underly cell behavior. Let's get started! #EngageDBIO #XtremeCellBiology.

Anne Pipathsouk, Weiner Lab et al. discover a novel nanoscale organization of a key #actin regulator that could explain how cellular protrusions expand and self-straighten and how transcellular holes are repaired. bit.ly/3v117Sq #cytoskeleton #migration #motility

Postdoc opportunity in Fred Chang’s lab @ UCSF for a newly funded project on a carnivorous fungus that hunts and eats nematodes. This fungus makes ring traps that snap shut to capture worms. We hope to investigate mechanisms of ring morphogenesis and ring constriction.

We are organizing an amazing event @ucsf highlighting, giving a platform for, and building a community for native quantitative biologists. Join us on November 18-19. This year will be virtual meaning we can include more folks! Register: qbi.ucsf.edu/native-and-ind… Plz retweet!

Hi all, It is my pleasure to launch the HHMI Biointeractive and SEAS program's FREE course on 'Inclusive Teaching'. More than anything, this course asks us amidst the haste to slow down, pause and reflect on being human-centered in teaching . biointeractive.org/professional-l…

Ok, this is a big one! Proud to present our latest story on hydropatterning-a process that allows plants to sense moisture gradients in soil and activate branching. Johannes Scharwies defines the genetic basis for this response in maize and Arabidopsis! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
