New #preprint—Impossible ecologies: interaction networks and stability of coexistence in ecological communities (arxiv.org/abs/2309.16261). Great Center for Systems Biology Dresden collaboration with Yu Meng, Szabolcs Horvát, Carl D Modes. MPI-PKS Dresden MPI-CBG Dresden

In 2019, I took over the supervision (at least partial) of 6 students from Suzanne Eaton EatonLab. Today the last one abhijeetkrishna , shared with Carl D Modes on an awesome collaboration, defended his thesis. Congratulations! 🎉 MPI-CBG Dresden Physics of Life Dresden IMPRS-CellDevoSys. Papers coming!

New year, new preprint! This one from the outstanding @_JFuhrmann, in collaboration with abhijeetkrishna, Carl D Modes, Marko Popovic and Frank Jülicher. EatonLab MPI-CBG Dresden Physics of Life Dresden #Drosophila #biophysics biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

HFSP Program Grant Award HFSP for Carl Modes Carl D Modes and collaborators for their joint project “From nano to organismal scale: structural regulation of regenerating jellyfish.” Congratulations! 🥳 mpi-cbg.de/news-outreach/…

Don't miss the workshop on Software Tools for Network Science at NetSci 2024, organized by Nagy Tamás Tiago Peixoto and myself: netsci.nascol.net We welcome abstract submissions on all computational / software-related network science topics.

Marino Zerial, director MPI-CBG Dresden and Human Technopole was elected as new member of the German National Academy of Sciences Nationale Akademie der Wissenschaften Leopoldina. The Academy recognized his outstanding achievements in the field of cell biology. mpi-cbg.de/news-outreach/…

Happy to announce that I joined the faculty of Computer Science at TU Dresden and ScaDS.AI.AI ! We will continue our work on quantitative methods for spatial analysis of microscopy images - exciting times ahead! (positions available soon!)

Don't miss tomorrow's first ever software-focused NetSci 2024 satellite and school, with presentations on various network analysis packages in the morning and tutorials in the afternoon! Schedule at netsci.nascol.net/schedule

Article in Physical Review E by Michael F. Staddon in the group of Carl D Modes at the MPI-CBG Dresden and the Center for Systems Biology Dresden. 🙌

Very happy to share the first article from my postdoc work in the Tomancak lab! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…. We studied the self-organization of actin in aggregates made from Hydra cells. Thread below (1/9)

Thanks to the people who contributed to this work Giulia Serafini , Heino, Zechner lab , Carl D Modes (team smectics), Pavel Tomancak and the Tomancak team. Also, a big thank to the Hydra community for help and discussions!

Great story from Anaïs Bailles on the role of #mechanics in initiating the remarkable #Hydra reformation from #singlecells to functional #animal.
