Very happy that our paper “Cell response to extracellular matrix viscous energy dissipation outweighs high-rigidity sensing” is out @scienceadvances

A thread on the main findings follows👇
@CNIC_CARDIO@SBEsp@SEBBM_es
We show that how individual tissue components assemble to each other, besides their local densities, is key to accurately modeling brain tissue mechanics
Happy to have this work published! Using the mouse hippocampus, we developed a model to predict local tissue mechanics. Thanks to Carlos Borau @M2BE_I3A@Nelda373@Franze_Lab! 👇

@RicardAlert@AdamShellard@mayor_lab We found that + & - durotaxis actually emerges from the movement toward + gradients of friction (+ frictiotaxis). Did u find any case of - frictiotaxis?
We also propose how cell adhesion can be manipulated to control durotaxis (shift migration directions or arrest migration). And extended the model to describe haptotaxis!
New paper on durotaxis! We used clutch models and active gel theory to explain positive and negative durotaxis @softmatter See more 👇https://t.co/4K8cc3GvOP
Our work on wrinkled fingers also featured at @CCMA_cat. @LaCaN_UPC@la_UPC@IMTech_UPC Per què s'arruguen els dits quan els posem en remull i què diu això sobre la nostra salut https://t.co/Hoe6TZ89FX
