Scar #fibroblasts generate an aligned supracellular actin network in response to IL6, leading to #ECM anisotropy. Great interdisciplinary collaboration with @DrTJShaw and Angelika Manhart @MathematicsUCL. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Join us as a RIKEN Special PostDoc Researcher! Areas of our focus include: -Developing tools for visualizing & manipulating ECM -Directing stem cell behavior via ECM manipulation -Exploring principles of skin development, regeneration & evolution riken.jp/en/careers/pro…

Graham Dunn was a pioneering cell biologist and amazing person. He will be missed both personally and professionally. Lovely obituary by Gareth Jones and @AlexanderBersh1. journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/13…

We are looking for a research technician to work on an exciting collaborative project with @RLWczyk using a combination of fly and mammalian models to understand basement membrane physiology during development and disease. jobs.ac.uk/job/DKN082/tec…

Fully funded PhD studentships @KCL_MRCDTP now open! Joint project available with @DarrenWilliamsLab on mechanisms controlling the mechanical properties of the central nervous system. kcl-mrcdtp.com/project/the-ex… #MRCDTP25

📢We are recruiting! 3y postdoc position available in our interdisciplinary team @institut_curie #Paris. Join us if you're interested in live imaging, quantitative biology & (opto)genetics of Drosophila epithelia during morphogenesis. institut-curie.org/team/bellaiche Please RT!

A role for a dynamic #BasementMembrane during development and disease is underexplored. Tools are now there to dissect BM component dynamics in several model systems. Have a look! Thanks @SherwoodElegans for the fun discussion.

🥁Meet the Invited Speakers at #MBE2024🥁 + numerous short talks available + an entire session - ECM breakthrough - with all talks selected from abstracts + a beautiful city to visit - So, don’t wait: Register and submit abstracts now! 👉🏼mbe2024.sciencesconf.org

Our paper on early nephron morphogenesis in human renal organoids is now out in @Dev_Cell , great work from @jpnigby and collaboration with @AstraZeneca

We are excited to have this opening in the Shaw Lab at KCL to study skin biology at the intersection of developmental biology and regeneration. It’s a great team with awesome collaborators! Closing date 23rd Feb. Please get in touch with any questions. kcl.ac.uk/jobs/083427-re…

We are excited to have this opening to help finish a project about skin biology at the intersection of developmental biology and regeneration.

The Anatomy Department at KCL is recruiting! I hope you agree this is an exciting opportunity to join a great team, with excellent facilities, a rich history, and limitless potential. Please spread the word, and get in touch if interested.

Please RT: We are recruiting a Senior Laboratory Research Scientist in our lab @TheCrick to study cell and tissue mechanobiology. @ERC_Research #biophysics #mechanobiology #ECM #organoids crick.ac.uk/research/labs/…

We've moved to UCLA and are hiring post docs, a lab manager & a lab technician. If you are intrigued by the cell bio of immune cell tissue interactions and mitochondrial function in immunity, come join us! tinyurl.com/k4z8pr3k. See job ads section in join us tab on website

The go to #Matrix biology meeting of 2024 will be in Lyon in September.....see you all there. organised by @TheRuggieroLab and @SFBMEc. Bursaries will be available as always from @BSMB1 mbe2024.sciencesconf.org

Tissues have neighbors and border disputes just like us, and border formation determines how we heal and grow! Some more details (and eye candy) on tissue collisions ppr: doi.org/10.1038/s41467… We discovered some rules of tissue collisions. Video: role of tissue shape/size. 1/n

embopress.org/doi/full/10.15… Here we show that TGF-β and insulin signalling converge in the fat body to control ECM secretion via short gastrulation (sog), a TGF-β antagonist.

The @Lennon_Lab are recruiting😀 Are you interested in #basement membranes? How they form vital tissue connections? How these are affected in human disease? Then join our collaborative team @wtccmr & @DukeBiology wellcome-matrix.org/vacancies/ @amsocmatbio @BSMB1 @IntSocMatBio

Exciting news! Our new research paper is published! This exciting study was done with a amazing collaborator Scott Early (@vesselman) lab. Congratulations🎉🍻🥳
