Great news today for the lab!

Post-doc Nathan Hervieux (poster 150) and PhD student Tom Sharrock (poster 156) will be sharing current work during this evenings poster session at #EESMechanical

Our paper is now online ! #vertex #morphogenesis #Drosophila The tricellular vertex-specific adhesion molecule Sidekick facilitates polarised cell intercalation during Drosophila axis extension biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Latest pre-print from the lab is now available on #bioRxiv - "The tricellular vertex-specific adhesion molecule Sidekick facilitates polarised cell intercalation during Drosophila axis extension"

The Sanson lab is offering 2 PhD projects, beginning in October 2020, under the new Wolfson College, Oxford & PDN Cambridge joint studentship. For more information -> pdn.cam.ac.uk/graduate/wpdn-… or contact us directly. Please share & RT.

Bénédicte spoke to - from the Node this morning as part of the #BSDBGenSoc2020 e-meeting. A quick Q+A session highlighting the lab's current work.

Bénédicte and Tom Sharrock's review on cell sorting and morphogenesis in early Drosophila embryos is now live! -> authors.elsevier.com/a/1bs7r3si8Pkf…. The review covers mechanisms of cell sorting, accompanying cell behaviours, and also features a very beautiful in situ HCR by Erik Clark

Preprint available online now! The team's latest work on how adhesion dynamics regulate cell intercalation behaviour with Alex Nestor-Bergmann Guy Blanchard Nathan Hervieux Alex Fletcher @JoscelynEtienne PDN Cambridge biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Well done Alex Nestor-Bergmann for winning a poster presentation prize at the ‘EMBO: Physics of Living Systems workshop’ last week! PDN Cambridge

We are looking for a new postdoc to study the composition and role of tricellular adherens junctions in epithelial morphogenesis. In collaboration with St Johnston Lab and Buckley Lab. For more info see jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/30122/. Please share & RT. PDN Cambridge (Cambridge University)

We are lucky to welcome Bridget Ryan, a summer student, to the lab this week. And congratulations Bridget on your Gurdon/The Company of Biologists Summer Studentship! (bsdb.org/awards/gurdon-…) PDN Cambridge British Society for Developmental Biology

We have another summer student starting this week. Welcome Florrie Clark! We hope that both you and Bridget enjoy working with us and learn lots PDN Cambridge

An opportunity to join our lab! We are currently advertising a research position, in collaboration with St Johnston Lab and Buckley Lab. For more info see jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/31741/. Please share & RT PDN Cambridge Cambridge University

Check out our new preprint ‘Different temporal requirements for the LRR transmembrane receptors Tartan and Toll-2 in the formation of contractile interfaces at compartmental boundaries’ biorxiv.org/content/10.110… PDN Cambridge Cambridge University

Our latest paper on mechanical boundaries and the role of Tartan is out in Development journals.biologists.com/dev/article/14…

Morphogenetic movements can generate forces that pull on adjacent tissues and change cell behaviours through mechanics and mechanotransduction, but does this always happen? We find that #Drosophila germband extension is remarkably robust to mesoderm invagination. #morphogenesis

Our cell division orientation paper is out!

Congratulations Guy Blanchard and Elena Scarpa for having their work featured as Biomedical Picture of the day Biomedical Picture of the Day BPoD ! To find out more about the video, have a look at this paper doi.org/10.1242/dev.20…
