Our first 2025 paper!
We discuss in @natrevmcb.bsky.social how epithelial stem cells mechanically sculpt tissues, and how these forces are altered in cancer.

Dynamic forces shape the survival fate of eliminated cells - Nature Physics Tissues eliminate unwanted cells through cell extrusion, but the factors determining whether these extuded cells live or die are not fully understood. Now force transmission across adherens junctions ...

Published today! #Biophysics #Physics #Science

It turns out that the forces applied to cells as they are ejected from a tissue affects whether those cells 'live' or 'die'.

project file growing too cluttered? just consolidate everything into one massive analysis script thousands of lines long. just do it, copy paste them all together. you will certainly not regret consolidating everything into one massive analysis script thousands of lines long.

Inspired by the other amazing starter packs - here's one for cancer researchers!

I tried to make this broad - from immunology to genomics to cell biology and so much more..

This list also includes organizations & institutes supporting cancer researchers πŸ§ͺπŸ”¬βš•οΈπŸ©Ί

Hope its useful!

Here is an amazing story how science finds unusual ways: We tested a commercial dye for its suitability as an optoacoustic agent. During testing, we discovered something that was quite astonishing - it binds to all tumors. Here is the story:
