New preprint from the lab! We studied how single cells migrate up, down and about fibronectin gradients. Experiments by Isabela Corina Fortunato, PhD , theory by David Bruckner. Collaboration with Edouard Hannezo and Raimon Sunyer IBEC biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Have you ever wondered how cell heterogeneity can regulate tissue patterning and how such patterns are maintained? Then come to my talk at the ASCB meeting #cellbio2024 this Sunday afternoon ☺️

If you are attending #CellBio2024 and are interested in understanding how the process of crypt morphogenesis is coordinated both in vivo and in organoids then come to my talk Wed Dec 18th in the subgroup “Organoids as tools to study the function of tissue in Health and Disease”

Happy to share the latest work from Preeti Sahu, with Adriana Sánchez Danés on the biomechanics of cell fate choices during tumor initiation! We implement/test a 3D vertex model with proliferation and fate choices for multilayered tissues! 🧵below (1/n) bit.ly/3ZXxJzk

Researchers from the The Clevers Lab developed a method to grow organoids using a bacterial protein: Invasin. The study, published today in PNASNews, shows that Invasin offers a sustainable, affordable and animal-free alternative to current methods. hubrecht.eu/Invasin-protei…

I am very excited to share our most recent work on how ‘Cell heterogeneity and fate bistability drive tissue patterning during intestinal regeneration’ ☺️ Thanks a lot to Silvia Barbiero David Brückner @prisca Edouard Hannezo and all the co-authors!

How do embryos ensure precise tissue patterning? It’s all about timing cell divisions! Our new preprint reveals how cell proliferation syncs with signalling oscillations to regulate precision of somite formation and growth. Check the full story: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Lab’s latest: (mouse) mums grow their guts during pregnancy and lactation: cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

🎉 Excited to share our new work: “Adhesion-driven tissue rigidification triggers epithelial cell polarity”, now on bioRxiv ! A huge thank you to Nicoletta I Petridou , Bernat, Cristina Pallares Ca , Adrián, and everyone involved! 🙌 🧵⤵️

It is out now with some interesting revision results: nature.com/articles/s4158…

Congrats Haillot & the whole Ulrich Technau Ulrich Technau Lab! Another brilliant example of how we shouldn't assume simplicity in non-bilaterian animals. Triploblasty’s roots seem to run older than we thought! Nice to see a crosstalk between MAPK, β-catenin & Notch to define germ cell

Thrilled to share 🎉 I’m joining University of Zurich DMLS as Assistant Professor (tenure track)! I’ll launch the Neural MorphoGenomics & Developmental Dynamics Lab, exploring how genes + morphogenesis shape brain development using organoids, imaging & spatial genomics 🧠🔬🧬
