Replying to @EpiMechFC
@EpiMechFC is one of the best #SciComm in the era of X
Love to learn from them!😆👇
Are you curious about how @EpiMechFC started a little over 2 years ago and how it has developed since then?
Do not miss our blog post! Thank you, @focalplane_jcs, for reaching out to us and for the opportunity! 👇

It’s time to talk about epithelial geometry and cancer. How can the architecture of an epithelium affect how tumours will grow and spread? In this thread, @almagro_jorge takes you through the basics of tissue architecture in carcinogenesis.

More generally, we reviewed how epithelial mechanics drive tissue architecture in physiology, and how this mechanical cues go awry in cancer here:

About counter rotating flows
xitter.cf/EpiMechFC/status/18834…
Let's look at some cool bilateral cellular flows videos!
IMHO: this is a goldmine for #EpithelialMechanics
Movie from Asai et al 2024 shows beautiful counter rotating flows.
About characterizing and controlling avian gastrulation flows
xitter.cf/EpiMechFC/status/19849…
Which features of tissue flows are most robust and how do they emerge from #EpithelialMechanics?
I’m @axplum (@Mattia__Serra) and I’ll be sharing some papers on characterizing and controlling avian gastrulation flows.

Building on 100+ years of research (with great threads here!), we hope new theoretical tools, integrated with experiments, can help to understand the interplay between forces, flows, and fates in the generative processes of the embryo.
Thanks for reading, and shoutout to our amazing experimental collaborators @gserranonajera and Kees Weijer!
