Michelle Ly @Michelle_Lyy, Katheryn Rothenberg @KRothPhD, Rodrigo Fernandez-Gonzalez @RFG_Lab and colleagues find that integrin-based adhesions promote cell-cell junction & cytoskeletal remodelling during embryonic wound healing: https://t.co/7EextFofVV

This #FluorescenceFriday we are highlighting wound healing with research from @Michelle_Lyy, @KRothPhD, @RFG_Lab and colleagues. They find that integrins are necessary for actin accumulation at the wound edge.

[Katheryn Rothenberg @KRothPhD]

I'm really proud of this work and grateful to @RFG_Lab for letting me try out my crazy ideas, to Clara and Ray who did the initial experiments, and to @Michelle_Lyy who worked hard to bring everything to fruition. A true team effort!

[TBEP_UofT @TBEP_UofT]

Congratulations to @Michelle_Lyy (#TBEP alumni), on her publication in @J_Cell_Sci! Yet another great paper from the @RFG_Lab!

[Katheryn Rothenberg @KRothPhD]

A project started by what I thought was a simple question at the start of my postdoc - What about cell-ECM adhesion? I'm so grateful to have had the opportunity to supervise @Michelle_Lyy on this work that formed the basis of her Master's thesis.

Integrin-based adhesions promote cell-cell junction remodelling and cytoskeletal rearrangements to drive embryonic wound healing https://t.co/GRLoZajkeu #biorxiv_cellbio

[Katheryn Rothenberg @KRothPhD]

Cell-cell adhesions and the cytoskeleton are both reorganized as cells initiate collective migration - have you ever wondered what's coordinating these rearrangements? At @RFG_Lab we believe that it is Rap1 GTPase: https://t.co/qr9G52Vkge

🧶A #PhD journey is like #knitting. You: (1)assemble different threads of arguments; (2)develop patterns of thoughts/ideas (some more colourful than others); & (3)knit them together into a seamless knowledge fabric. Your end-goal keeps your labour of love alive. #AcademicChatter

We know it's St. Patrick's Day, but we're urging everyone to practise social distancing and save the party for another time. ☘️
Together, we can slow the pace of COVID-19 and keep our community safe.

[Katheryn Rothenberg @KRothPhD]

I had the pleasure of giving the first virtual @RFG_Lab lab meeting. Everyone looking good and healthy in isolation!

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Watch this. It shows why we should all do the right thing and stay home to the fullest extent possible. All of us can help slow the spread of the virus, protecting the elderly, the vulnerable, and each other. https://t.co/FgffQrMVB7

Speed reading is a compelling way to consume more content while gaining less insight.

The purpose of reading is to learn and reflect. It's about quality, not quantity.

A great book should be savored like a gourmet meal, not inhaled like fast food.
