Spotlight: @isabella-gaeta.bsky.social, @shuangshuangdu.bsky.social, @valentatormenta.bsky.social et al. (doi.org/10.1083/jcb....) revealed that dermal #fibroblast depletion does not affect epidermal #StemCell proliferation in the skin. Rognoni highlights the findings: rupress.org/jcb/article/...

So happy to share this angle of my postdoctoral work! The skin epidermis keeps on keeping on, even when we deplete a majority of dermal fibroblasts.

@isabella-gaeta.bsky.social, @shuangshuangdu.bsky.social, @valentatormenta.bsky.social et al. show that the epidermal stem cell layer retains its capacity for proliferation despite significant fibroblast depletion during both adult and neonatal stages in vivo. rupress.org/jcb/article/... #StemCells

While living systems rely on collectives to function our academic institutions reward singular stars. This piece “The myth of the irreplaceable scientist” challenges how we define impact in science and invites us to imagine evaluation systems that better reflect the collaborative nature of discovery

Visibility in Academia, like in the world, is not fixed; it is produced. This piece “What Cell Biology Reveals About Academia” is a reminder that everyone has the potential to be either seen or unseen. sciencepolitics.org/2026/03/23/w...

Condensates are powerful ways to break symmetry and cells do remarkable things with them. Here we show that in a multinucleate fungus, a condensate regulates translation of a cyclin and a formin in distinct locations. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Geisterfer, Jalihal et al. show spatially distinct effects of Whi3 condensates on target translation in Ashbya syncytia. In vitro, translation is enriched at condensate–solute interfaces but repressed...

We lose extraordinary scientists because we fail to see how the system works through us. This piece “How Do We Become the Gatekeepers?” is a reflection about professional norms, where they may stem from and the impact on us all
