New paper out: With Reik Lab and Solenn Patalano we studied physical mechanisms of how societies of paper wasps can maintain stable social order (queen and workers) but show striking plasticity by rapidly reprogramming after loss of the queen👇 Center for Systems Biology Dresden sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Lineage tracing experiments are often compromised by the merging and fragmentation of clones. Together with Yiteng Dang we wrote a review summarising statistical strategies to detect and resolve such non-clonality. frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

Thank you!

A new paper from Hyun Youk presents a quantitative approach to determining a chemical signal’s interaction length, revealing a mm-scale quorum sensing mechanism for determining the collective growth of differentiating embryonic stem cells. Open access: nature.com/articles/s4158…

About two more weeks left for applying to a PhD studentship in Quantitative Developmental Biology in my group, to work on experimental testing of mathematical models of angiogenesis and cell-ECM interactions. universiteitleiden.nl/en/vacancies/2…

Very happy to have contributed to this!

Super excited to share with y'all a new mechanism for collective motility in living tissues which can learn about in our latest preprint.🎉 Check it out! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Check out Yiteng Dang 's work on collective motion💨, collab with Jacqueline Tabler 💀.
