@mhakala.bsky.social shows that HRS forms bidimensional condensates onto endosomal membranes to flatten clathrin/ESCRT-0, an observation unexplained since the 2000s. Thx to Kukulski lab, @stefvass.bsky.social @colomlab.bsky.social @kaksonen.bsky.social @mishakudryashev.bsky.social rdcu.be/fihKk

Guillaume Pernollet shows that epithelial cells adjust their shape to locally flatten, forming scutoids for any geometry, changing our view of cell packing. Thanks to all! @clairedessalles.bsky.social @juanmagararc.bsky.social @sciencesunige.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

@marineluciano.bsky.social recreates intestinal Villi geometry by growing epithelial cells on wavy rolling substrates. Unexpected intrication of curvature effects is observed.

ESCRT-III is an ancient complex, present in Archaea, with only two proteins and all membrane remodelling functions. Great work by @javierespadas.bsky.social, @diorgeps.bsky.social, @sami-c.bsky.social, thanks to the @buzzbaum.bsky.social lab! Drawing by Julie Polge. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Yamini @yamini-ravichan.bsky.social changed the topology of Hydra to show that actin orientational defects of Hydra induce the full program of head regeneration: www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... Mechanics controls development! Thanks to Dan Pearce, Karsten Kruse, Matthias Vogg & Brigitte Galliot.

The best reason for quitting X came after announcing it.

Seems like the GIF is not working with an additional image, so I repost it.

It's good to resocialize on bluesky with scientists long seen on Twitter! As a #welcome image, we share a beautiful image of nematic myoblasts covering an alginate capsule taken by Claire Dessalles @clairedessalles.bsky.social... and their flows!
