Watching gastruloids grow is fun and can be -very- surprising: see how they manage to deal with large size differences and the challenge of defining a unique anteroposterior axis, while keeping transcription tightly regulated in time. Cool work from cool scientific friends 🔬
Happy to share our collaborative effort showing a temporal decoupling between morphogenesis and transcription during gastruloids self-organization

Aujourd’hui l’@ipggmicrofluid est ouvert à tous pour la @FeteScience ! Venez nous retrouver de 14h à 18h, avec des ateliers pour découvrir l’univers des labos. Ici, le labo de l’équipe Piel @institut_curie (et son microscope @LEGO_Group 🤩)
Lennon-Duménil and colleagues find that DCs can sense shape changes associated with migration, that can modify their migratory and immunoregulatory properties. Read it here: rdcu.be/dKcRHnature.com/articles/s41590-0…
We’re hiring! We have a BBSRC-funded postdoc position @imperialcollege@ImperialLifeSci, starting 1st July, to develop DNA-based tools to measure single-molecule forces in cells. Advert coming soon. Informal enquiries are welcome!
Check out our new methods chapter detailing how we use DNA-based tension sensors to quantify antigen extraction and internalisation in the B cell immune synapse! These tools can be easily adapted to study force-mediated endocytosis in any cell model.
Haven’t posted for a long time as I’ve been busy looking after my baby girl but I’m excited to share our new methods chapter, where we detail how to quantify force-mediated antigen extraction in the B cell immune synapse using DNA-based tension sensors. eur03.safelinks.protection.o…
An international multi-language survey spearheaded by #eLifeAmbassador @HaageVc is asking #postdocs about the reasons behind their early departure from research groups.
Take the survey and help the group address the postdoc crisis: elifesciences.org/inside-eli…@PostdocVoice
We have a postdoc position open to study bacterial nanomachines at the structural level using cryoEM/ET 👀👇. Your have experience in such approaches and you want access to a Titan and 2 Glacios microscopes (and more coming) ? The job is for you.

We are looking for a bioimage analyst to work within the core facility, but collaborating on the projects of the users of France-Bioimaging (that is: roughly all France).

It is still time to register and submit an abstract for the symposium organised by @SBCF1 & @GDR_ImaBio in Giens, France from 14 to 17 November.
Three full days of microscopy & cell biology 🔬!

Please RT🤗
Want to look @ lymphocytes polarizing at the #immunesynapse... in LIVE ?! Here is a detailed protocol to do so with microfluidics (@LPinon_Lea and I know it by heart...) and that works with both cell lines and primary B and T #cells (which are both cool cell types, of course)🤓🔬
I will be recruiting post docs in the coming weeks. If you are an immunologist interested in using fancy microscopes and machine learning based analytics to study immune cells, you should apply!!
L'enquête est édifiante... "49% des femmes scientifiques disent avoir été «personnellement confrontées à au moins une situation de harcèlement sexuel au cours de leur carrière"
