We are hiring a research specialist to help launch our lab at The University of Chicago. How does biology use physics to sculpt complex visceral organ shapes? We address the dynamic & mechanical interactions between tissue layers that link genes to geometry. uchicago.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/External/job/C…

TubULAR maps whole-organ tissue deformations on complex dynamic surfaces and decomposes them into simple, interpretable components. Published online today. Developed w/ Dillon Cislo in @StreichanS Lab, UCSB Physics Nature Methods rdcu.be/dsVXT

TubULAR, a tissue cartography method developed by Noah P Mitchell and Dillon Cislo, enables generation of in toto maps of surface deformation to analyze deformation in dynamic tissues. #moty2023 nature.com/articles/s4159…

Last call for applications for a research specialist position in our new lab The University of Chicago. Great for someone looking to do developmental biophysics research full-time before grad school, for ex. uchicago.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/External/job/C…

APS DBIO members, Please consider staffing the DBIO table during the March Meeting. Sign up for as many time slots as you like below, and we'll be in touch with details. Volunteers will receive a DBIO t-shirt! docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d… image credit: Wenhui Tang (MIT, Guo Lab)

Latest from the lab: The Sex of Organ Geometry – aka ORGAN ORIGAMI! Organs exist in male and female configurations. For some 3D insights into how and why see rdcu.be/dJnkI (spoiler: it’s mechanochemical)

'The Mechanics of building functional organs - our take on this fundamental problem. We discuss general design rules building complex 3D geometries, advocate for a holistic understanding of morphogenesis by embracing the complexity of embryonic development.cshperspectives.cshlp.org/content/early/…

How do cell interactions determine the migration of cell trains? 🦠🚂🤔 Check out our latest study in Nature Physics in collab w/ Sylvain GABRIELE Edouard Hannezo Xavier Trepat & experiments led by Eleonore Vercruysse! ➡️nature.com/articles/s4156…

My group will be open to host PhD students & rotations for the upcoming Biozentrum, University of Basel Fellowship call We use theoretical physics to understand complex biological systems, from chromosomes to embryos Interested? Check our research & get in touch➡️davidbrueckner.de/research Please RT

It’s finally out! 🥳 Today @cellcellpress we report non-mineral fossils of ancient chromosomes in skin from a woolly mammoth that died in Siberia, 52,000 years ago. 🦣💨 Don’t miss our thread below! 🧵👇🏽

Pumped to share our latest and first (!) work from Rashmi Priya @rashmi-priya.bsky.social lab The Francis Crick Institute! Using the powers of #zebrafish, we uncover how multiscale mechanochemical coupling drives morphological and functional maturation of the developing heart 🫀 Stay tuned for the🧵 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

For PhD students from underrepresented backgrounds, consider signing up to connect with the communities here at Chicago in October. …cagolanddiversepostdocrecruitment.org

New microscopy space is almost ready -- excited for the science that will come University of Chicago (MGCB)

Finally, out in nature! A great team effort to address very constructive reviews. With Paolo Caldarelli, Alexander Chamolly, @villedieuA_bio, Olinda Alegria, Carole Phan, and Francis Corson , with the support of European Research Council (ERC) . rdcu.be/dTFJV
