An institute like ISTA consumes around 1700 gloves/day. These gloves are often discarded after a single use. Although nitrile CAN be recycled, Europe lacks sufficient infrastructure to process this material, so the gloves end up being incinerated.
If you would like to help science become more sustainable:
• Reuse gloves when possible, they can be sterilized with no change in their properties:

• Don't overstock-gloves do expire!
👻Trick or treat?🎃
Here is a treat 🍬 In our new perspective article @mi_riedl dives into the self-organizing principles behind actin polymerization and the Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction. Two seemingly different systems, one underlying principle.

How do immune cells know where to go? It has been proposed that cells simply respond to externally established gradients of chemokines, but we think that’s not all…
(5/6) DCs don't just passively follow chemical cues! CCR7 senses CCL19 and actively shapes the distribution of chemokine. This dual function allows immune cells to generate their own gradients, guiding their collective migration in complex environments more effectively.
If you are attending the @lindaunobel Laureate Meeting this month you might meet our postdoc Mario (@mj_avellaneda)! We are all looking forward to hear about all the amazing talks that will happen…
Thrilled and honoured to have been selected for the @lindaunobel#LINO23 meeting!
Big thanks to @HFSP for the nomination 🙏
Really looking forward to enjoying those summer days with amazing people! 😊
The directed cell migration GRC is happening next January and there are still some places available! Don’t miss out on an interactive and engaging meeting.

📣 JOB ALERT!! 🔬
Time to get into the details of amoeboid #collectivemigration!
3 years funded postdoc position in collaboration with @PielMatthieu, @mcoppey and Voituriez labs to decrypt the cellular and molecular mechanisms of CAM (science.org/doi/10.1126/scia…)
Looking forward to our next #globalimmuno talk this Wednesday, November 16th at 9am PST, noon EST, 5pm GMT by Dr. Michael Sixt.
Title: "Leukocyte locomotion - the single cell perspective"

Thrilled to share our work in @Nature showing elevated viscosity counterintuitively increases cell motility and imprints mechanical memory in tumor cells enabling them to disseminate more efficiently in vivo! Thanks to #NCI, @KaustavBera11, @SXS_biophysicsnature.com/articles/s41586-0…
