“It is hard to put into words the extent of the damage being done to the US research enterprise, which is of almost incalculable value to both the nation itself and the wider world… An assault on science and scientists anywhere is an assault on science and scientists

Great opportunity to hear from an amazing scientist about some exciting science and mechanobiology.

Interested in nuclear #mechanobiology, and how advanced genomic tools can shed light on how the cell nucleus might sense mechanical forces? Read our latest review by excellent Julien Morival and Anna Hazelwood, now published J Cell Science: journals.biologists.com/jcs/article-ab…

Celebrating 140 Years of Women in Engineering at Cornell @cornellengineering and their amazing achievements. Hosted by Cornell BME’s Marjolein van der Meulen and Materials Science and Engineering at Cornell’s Lara Estroff who have been trailblazers in many areas.

Happy to share our latest research article, "The activation of INF2 by Piezo1/Ca2+ is required for mesenchymal-to-amoeboid transition in confined environments," in Current Biology: authors.elsevier.com/a/1koXe3QW8SA2… Graphical abstract:

There’s an enormous amount of disinformation flying around about NIH right now, so let’s clear a few things up. The NIH is not Big Pharma. It doesn’t make drugs, it doesn’t set public health agendas, and it doesn’t profit from your illness.

🔬 A new probe developed by Janelia researchers & collaborators that enables visualization of extracellular matrix structure in live tissues could also be useful in studying diseases linked to changes in the extracellular matrix and in diagnostic imaging➡️ janelia.org/news/looking-b…

Caillier, Patrick Oakes et al. find that T cells form #integrin mediated focal adhesions to pull themselves through confined spaces. hubs.la/Q03jXT9J0 📕 In Immune Cell Biology 2025: hubs.la/Q03jXWHM0 #AAI2025

This is the impact the recent cuts in federal funding have on biomedical research and human health. A new heart pump to save sick babies, which took 20+ year to develop, will be stopped short off helping patients, and the researchers fear for their jobs. news.cornell.edu/stories/2025/0…

This is a great opportunity for #FutureFaculty in #BiomedicalEngineering to present their work and receive valuable insights and feedback from current faculty. Please share and encourage postdocs to apply!

Under development by Cornell Engineering researcher James Antaki for over 30 years, PediaFlow is a device designed to save the lives of infants with heart defects and allow newborns to go home with their families while awaiting surgery or a transplant. But shortly after receiving a $6.7

How do altered levels of lamins and other nuclear envelope proteins contribute to cancer metastasis, and how does this relate to #mechanobiology? Learn more in our recent review by Sarah Henretta now out in npj Journals - biological physics and mechanics (doi.org/10.1038/s44341…).

There’s a (not so) silent war being waged against biomedical research and the scientific community is losing. Not because it lacks power, but because we haven’t fully stepped into it. Here’s what every researcher needs to understand at this turning point we find ourselves at:

We are offering an exciting project for aspiring clinical scientists! Cytoskeletal Dynamics in Circulating Tumour Cells from Breast Cancer Patients! Don't miss this opportunity to work at the interface between fundamental and clinical science😀 icr.ac.uk/study-and-care…

For perspective: In 2000, China invested $33B in R&D. By 2024, that number topped $500B annually. If you remove Harvard from the equation - China will dominate the list of top academic institutions in the world. Actions have consequences.
