How can growth be used to harness the ability to contract? Check our work finally out on #CurrentBiology to learn how Cardamine’s valve “engineered” its epidermis to do just that! doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.… Go #MorphoMechanX!

I am happy to announce that I'll be starting my research group at @slcuplants this November! If you are enthusiastic about plant development and hormones in shaping form, please apply for the post-doc position advertised here: jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/48137/

What makes a tree weep? 🌳💧 Unraveling the molecular mechanisms behind the graceful drooping branches of weeping trees. The hormone auxin and the gene WEEP play key roles in guiding gravitropism N&V: doi.org/10.1093/plphys… Orig ar: doi.org/10.1093/plphys… #auxin #gravitropism

Dear Twitter friends, as it has become morally unacceptable for me to remain on this platform, I will close this account by the end of this week. You can find me on #Bluesky as Gabriella Mosca (@moscabiomeclab)

Researchers challenged longhorn crazy ants and humans with the same task: maneuvering a T-shaped object through two consecutive open doorways. Single humans always outperformed single ants, but ant groups could beat human groups. In PNAS: ow.ly/5vat50UwZAo

Don't miss this opportunity to start your group @ZMBP_Tuebingen!

Our workshop on Finite Elements for Cell & Tissue Morphogenesis at Villa Clythia @caescnrs was a great success ! Congratulations to @ericnumerics for the perfect organisation and looking forward to a next edition.

The Hungarian judge decided against house arrest for Ilaria, held in prison one year on charges of assault against neo-Nazi militants. She was brought into court in chains. Her basic rights are denied in the core of Europe. Shame Hungary! Free #IlariaSalis!https://t.co/VIOXWTQ9Cp
