😱 AHHHH!!! 1 week left for #cellmech2025 !!!! Do you have everything ready to come to Leuven?? Check our programme here 👉 buff.ly/XqP8rmF If you present your work, check this 👉 buff.ly/wYloavk

Our new preprint is up! This is the main postdoc work of @wiesner-t.bsky.social focusing on exocytosis along the axon shaft and its regulation by the sub membrane actin-spectrin scaffold: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Read the thread below for a summary of our findings 🧵1/11

📢📢Hiring 2 Research Assistants & 2 Postdocs at Emory University in Atlanta to study cytoskeletal biophysics/biochemistry. Please RT. RAs: great for recent bachelor's/master's in Physics/Bio/Chem/Biochem. Email CV and interests to [email protected]. More info: www.shekharlab.org

My first thought when reading the title was integrins, and it was nice to see that authors established that link bringing together previous and new stuff.

@biljanaermanoska.bsky.social, Baets, and @rodallab.bsky.social show that a presynaptic actomyosin core coordinates with Integrin receptors to maintain neuron-muscle mechanical continuity at #Drosophila neuromuscular junctions. rupress.org/jcb/article/...

In @jcb.org, @biljanaermanoska.bsky.social, Baets, and @rodallab.bsky.social show that a presynaptic actomyosin core coordinates with Integrin receptors to maintain neuron-muscle mechanical continuity at #Drosophila neuromuscular junctions. rupress.org/jcb/article/...

Honored that our work with @rodallab.bsky.social and Jonathan Beats has found its final home @jcb.org. We identify a presynaptic actin core at the Drosophila NMJ—a long-lived, NMII-dependent structure that may help synapses withstand mechanical stress. 🧵 1/5

The first article that I edited for @jcb.org is out! It's about presynaptic actin, it's in Drosophila, and it's from @biljanaermanoska.bsky.social, Jonathan Baets and @rodallab.bsky.social. Congrats for this neat work!
