New Online! Shaping epithelial tissues by stem cell mechanics in development and cancer bit.ly/40SWOfs

Our first 2025 paper! We discuss in @NatRevMCB how epithelial stem cells mechanically sculpt tissues, and how these forces are altered in cancer. Great work from our former and current tumor mechanobiology experts Vince Fiore & @almagro_jorge nature.com/articles/s4158…

Very happy to see our review out in @NatRevMCB Here we discuss how stem cells exert forces to sculpt tissues in development and homeostasis, and how stem cell mechanics go awry upon malignant transformation. Read it here 👇 nature.com/articles/s4158…

1/ Parece que para que el corazón sienta los ojos tienen que ver. Imágenes de niños muriendo de hambre han impulsado hasta a Alemania a exigir el fin de la tragedia. ¿Pero cómo piensa lograrlo si se niega a adoptar sanción alguna contra Israel? Las buenas palabras no dan de comer

⚫ Israel ha cruzado todas las líneas rojas en Gaza. Nuestros equipos están siendo testigos directos de un genocidio. El mundo observa cómo se sigue derramando sangre, se despoja de dignidad y se ataca nuestra humanidad. 🔴 DEJAD VIVIR A GAZA. 🔴

En un insólito documento, el papa Francisco ha pedido a los católicos de EE UU que no cedan “ante las narrativas que discriminan y hacen sufrir innecesariamente a nuestros hermanos migrantes y refugiados” elpais.com/internacional/…

Congratulations to @almagro_jorge and @ElaineFuchsLab as well!!! 🥳🥳🥳

Great to hear! 👏🏼 @greatysp @almagro_jorge

Joe Biden came into office promising to be the next FDR. Instead, his presidency of empty gestures and moral failures has given us something far more dangerous: a reinvigorated Donald Trump armed with a popular mandate and a drive for retribution. jacobin.com/2025/01/biden-…

¿Cuándo dejaremos de analizar los discursos de Navidad del rey como si fueran textos bíblicos? Son inevitablemente, y como el decorado desde el que habla, de cartón piedra. Puras patochadas. ¿Quién recuerda lo que dijo el año pasado?

I've obtained a copy of Luigi Mangione's manifesto: kenklippenstein.com/p/luigis-manif…

This is Luigi's manifesto, it’s clear why the media didn't release it. He understood what he was doing, and certainly wasn’t irrational. This is someone who saw kernnells of truth through all the propaganda. He's spot on about one thing, it's all about power, ruling class power.

No os podéis imaginar la emoción infinita al hablar con una paciente (melanoma muy agresivo en este caso) que está libre de enfermedad gracias al tratamiento con un compuesto que parte de la investigación en mi grupo. Mérito de un esfuerzo titánico del equipo de @Highlight_HLT!

As the ICC finally issues arrest warrants for Israel’s leaders, here’s a promise. For those who helped facilitate Israel’s genocide - Western politicians, media outlets, and journalists: We will not rest until you are held accountable for the crime you helped commit.

The ICC’s arrest warrants are long overdue. The Prime Minister & Foreign Secretary must immediately endorse this decision. That is the bare minimum. Will the UK government now, finally, honour its international obligations to prevent genocide and end all arms sales to Israel?

As the Senate prepares to vote on blocking offensive weapons sales to Israel, let's remember: Netanyahu has violated international & U.S. law, violating human rights and blocking humanitarian aid. It is illegal for our government to provide him with more offensive weaponry.

Pundits have claimed Trump won because the country turned right, the Harris campaign was too far left or too woke, Biden’s presidency was robustly populist, and racism and sexism made the result inevitable. 🧵Here is why all those claims are wrong
