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. https://t.co/vegeJhbOfI
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.

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.
New Viewpoint: Stramer @stramerlab and Sherwood @SherwoodElegans discuss recent insight into basement membrane dynamics in live animals as well as considerations for the interpretation of fluorophore-tagged BM studies. https://t.co/QAHPJmk1wX

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. https://t.co/szGGqMqT0l
@KingsJobs 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.
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! https://t.co/TIM828s2yu. 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

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: https://t.co/akGPBHBi8V
We discovered some rules of tissue collisions. Video: role of tissue shape/size. 1/n
https://t.co/7zfKXHDjGL 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.
