🚀Exciting new review exploring the intersection of #mechanobiology & #AI!
From predicting cell forces to analyzing complex genomic data, AI is unlocking new insights into how cells respond to mechanical cues.

Thrilled to share our latest publication! We describe a novel acid-dependent mechanism regulating clathrin-independent endocytosis. This study was a fantastic collaborative effort with the labs of Ludger Johannes, Roberto Weigert, and Satyajit Mayor. nature.com/articles/s41556-0….

Interested in pexophagy? Check out our newly published work: we developed pexophagy reporters for use in Drosophila research. Very happy to have been involved in this collaboration @LivUniISMIB

🚨 New publication alert! 🚨
We developed live #Drosophila melanogaster models with fluorescent reporters to study #pexophagy – the selective autophagy of peroxisomes – in vivo. 🧵👇 @livuninews @wellcometrust @CCI_liv @LivUniHLS

*Fully funded PhD position available in the lab*
We will use structural proteomics to map the mechanosensitive interactions of talin in dendritic spines and how they change during long term potentiation.
Please RT, and email/message for details

Look at the amazing speaker list for Adhere2 next September!
This is going to be an excellent meeting, in beautiful Zadar, Croatia.

Can't wait for Fibronectin, Integrin and Related Molecules (FIRM?) GRC! What a great lineup of speakers - fantastic from @WickstromLab @TanentzapfLab
@WickstromLab & myself are happy to announce the program for the upcoming Fibronectin, Integrin & Related Molecules Gordon Research Conference. This is one of the oldest GRC conferences around (since 1982) & we put together an OUTSTANDING program for y'all. Registration is open.

Check out @IvaskaLab latest unexpected discovery on hyperactivation as a way to kill KRAS mutant cancer cells and limit KRASmut xenograft growth with nanobodies disrupting SHANK3-KRAS interaction 👇
What happens when unexpected happens!? 1) @johannalilja_ @IvaskaLab #JasminKaivola identified SHANK3 as a KRAS inhibitor 2) predicted SHANK3 depletion boosts KRASmut tumors 3) observed SHANK3 depletion kills KRAS-cells by ERK hyperactivation, apoptosis rdcu.be/dTQDP

My commute this morning ☺️
@IvaskaLab in #TheHappiestCountryInTheWorld @BioscienceTurku is starting our @ERC_Research AdG funded project BorderControl on tumor-matrix crosstalk limiting cancer progression. We are looking for postdocs! Pls contact me for more info
