My latest animation algorithm produces various patterns depending on two parameters, and I made a page to show some examples (+ a web app to see all possibilities): → bleuje.com/animationsite/moo…

How do cells orchestrate themselves to achieve a directional movement as a group? Hi, I’m @SayukiHirano in @kazuhiroaokilab. In this thread, I’ll highlight key mechanisms of how cells communicate with each other to perform directional collective migration.

Tom Whipple, Science Editor of The Times Magazine just published a large article that featured GlycanAge as the "ultimate age test"... Kudos to the @GlycanAge team...

Our latest study on mechanical profiling of colorectal cancer organoids is out! We've uncovered a distinct phenotype in cancer stem cells (red 👇) caused by differences in membrane-to-cortex attachment. Led by @SeforaConti @IBECBarcelona #PhysicsOfCancer rdcu.be/dE8Qn

Did you know? There's an Interplanetary Transport Network in our Solar System, used to launch spacecraft from Earth and send them to the desired destination. It is a collection of gravitationally determined pathways through the Solar System that require very little energy for an object to follow. The ITN makes particular use of Lagrange points as locations where trajectories through space can be redirected using little or no energy. Interplanetary transfer orbits are solutions to the gravitational three-body problem. The ITN is based around a series of orbital paths predicted by chaos theory and the restricted three-body problem leading to and from the orbits around the Lagrange points – points in space where the gravity between various bodies balances with the centrifugal force of an object there. Notable spacecraft that used the ITN were the ISEE-3, launched in 1978, the Hiten lunar mission in 1991, NASA's 2001–2003 Genesis mission, and the Chinese spacecraft Chang'e 2.

What are the timescales of mechanotransduction? Does it cease iimediately once force transmission stops? In a great collaboration with the labs of @ShenoyLab, @AnsethGroup, @IvaskaLab, @XavierTrepat, and Gerhard Wiche, Amy showed that it does not.

😯 François Jacob (co-discoverer of gene regulation) asked by Lucy Shapiro (Stanford): "It's always been hypothesis-driven research [..] but a new way is looking at vast amounts of data and not asking a question, just seeing if it give you a pattern." Jacob: "It’s very boring.."
