The Conway lab is excited to share the publication of our new lamin A biosensor, in which we show that nucleoplasmic lamin A is also mechanically loaded. A great collaboration with the Ihalainen group. @danielssonphd

In this study we show that changes in cell mechanics can induce eversion, a change in apical-basal polarity that occurs not as a result of protein trafficking but instead from an inward-out collective movement of cells.

We are incredibly grateful for all of the hard work of current and past Conway lab postdocs, lab techs, graduate students, and 30 undergraduates over the last 9 years, without whom none of this would have been possible.

One is a expert opinion/mini-review article on nuclear mechanics and mechanobiology that grew out of a #SB3C2021 workshop authored by @krisnoeldahl, Tanmay Lele, @conway_lab, @ShenoyLab, and @theghoshlab. doi.org/10.1115/1.4053797

Congratulations to our undergraduate student, Ashley Cardenas-Alviar, for winning best cell biology poster at ABRCMS, for her work on how the modulation of Piezo 1 activity affects epithelial cyst morphology and homeostasis. We are proud of you Ashley!
