Excited to share our new preprint with Ming Guo and @ProfBuehlerMIT at MIT! Discover how our geometric deep learning model predicts multicellular folding and embryogenesis, unlocking insights into cell interactions and tissue morphology. https://t.co/sf1IOVB7ph
I'll be presenting Unraveling Tissue Mechanics: Investigating Structure, Fluid Dynamics, and Rheological Behavior at Biological Physics Seminars on 27 Jun https://t.co/zdSNjWSUjE
Our paper on cell division and motility creating hexatic order is now in PRL! Discover how tissues could achieve orientational order through a complex interplay of division and motility, leading to flexible yet structured hexatic phases. @BowickM@KITP_UCSB@PhysicsNEU
The Liao lab is looking for a postdoc/research scientist! Areas: Cytoskeleton, biophysics, or related. $$ with exciting projects, supportive environment. Boston beckon! Please, retweet! https://t.co/WMBmndLij5
Our latest work "Discontinuous Shear Thickening in Biological Tissue Rheology" has been published in PRX! We uncover exotic rheological behavior in tissues affecting processes like wound healing & development. https://t.co/h5feWRSjAd
At the beginning of this year, Dr. Xingbo Yang joined @PoLDresden to establish his own research group. His group is mapping the energy costs and energy distribution within a cell.
P.S.: He is offering a postdoc position!
Welcome Xingbo and his new team!🤓

Yesterday, all of us in the department got together to felicitate Prof. Sriram Ramaswamy and Mr. Mariyappa on the occasion of their retirement. We sincerely thank them for all the contributions they made over the years!
#physics#retirement#felicitation#gratitude
Delighted to be included in the first issue of PRX Life! This is the latest work from Marisol Herrera-Perez along with Christian Cupo, Cole Allan, and Alicia Dagle on optogenetic interrogation of tissue fluidity!
Our work with Ming Guo @ MIT also just came out in Nature Physics. Here we looked at the effect of spatial curvature on a developing lung organoid.

Our latest work on how shear force can lead to tissue solidity and nonlinear elasticity has just appeared in Phys. Rev. Lett! @cris_marchetti_@PhysicsNEU https://t.co/jfsY7Mo8cV
A minimal cell-based computational model demonstrates that fluid-like epithelial tissues become rigid above a critical applied strain, a process similar to shear-driven rigidity in other soft matter systems https://t.co/Oh8Zkcss5H #biophysics
