Our latest on planar polarity mechanisms. Painstaking work by Alexandre Carayon, investigating mechanisms of cell-scale polarisation in the fly wing. Enjoy it (if this is your thing)! @struttlab @UK_Wnt @MCB_Sheffield @DRN_Sheffield

New work by @theajacobs_ @Sfb1348 @uni_muenster shows how actomyosin contractility at #tricellular junctions is modulated to control epithelial permeability in #Drosophila. See our preprint @biorxivpreprint biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Excited to announce…..it’s finally arrived (!!) nature.com/articles/s41556-0… A big thank-you to my team (particularly @robertr33), co authors & #FutureFellowship funding from @arc_gov_au Importantly- a big shoutout to @drDJVDavid @NatureCellBio for their support. 👇tweetorial 👇 #VivaLaMicrotubules 🎉
Buckle in, it is #microtubule cell migration story time! We reveal a new role for microtubules as cellular sensors which detect and respond to compressive forces, enabling movement and ensuring survival in mechanically demanding environments; just like this little guy squeezing through here. 1/10

Can we "drug" microtubule modifications to lower cardiac stiffness and improve function in #HFpEF? Out now in @ScienceTM , w/ long time collabs in @MarguliesLab 1/5 tinyurl.com/ynn6r2mz
