Fun revisiting this study and looking at the eLife peer review system for this postLight:

Insightful ‘postLight’ just uploaded by @simoncleary.bsky.social 👀 Simon revisits work discovering structures that control megakaryocyte protrusion events: extracellular matrix cages – work reviewed and published at @elife.bsky.social #postLight: prelights.biologists.com/highlights/m...

Check out this beautiful thread 🧵 and links to the study 📚 Awesome work on the life of megakaryocytes, very funny cells ! Lead by @wclairemasson.bsky.social !

It’s official! 🎉 Our latest paper on the role of the extracellular matrix (ECM) in megakaryopoiesis is out in @elife.bsky.social ! 🔗 elifesciences.org/articles/104... I’m thrilled to share this story with you in a short thread 👇

Blocking tubulin detyrosination via VASH1-SVBP inhibition enhances proplatelet formation & boosts platelet counts—no impact on function. A novel understanding of the megakaryocyte tubulin code beyond tubulin isotypes. #Platelet #HemeSky www.jthjournal.org/article/S153...

It was an honor and a pleasure to share our work on the impact of PACSIN2 on megakaryocyte and erythrocyte development yesterday afternoon at ISTH 2025! #ISTH2025

Awestruck by these cage-like structures that regulate escape of megakaryocytes from bone marrow into blood vessels. Congratulations to authors of this study, which I see is now also available as a reviewed preprint at eLife: elifesciences.org/reviewed-preprints/104963v1

Thanks again for the PreLight! I’m thrilled to see our work getting noticed and generating so much excitement!

The megakaryocyte: trapped in a cage of its own making 𐂺 In this #preprint, @wclairemasson.bsky.social & colleagues report the discovery of novel structures controlling megakaryocyte protrusion events. Excellent #preLight from @simoncleary.bsky.social ⬇️ 👀 prelights.biologists.com/highlights/m...

Wow, what a wonderful four months it has been! Thank you again to Dr. Eckly and her awesome electron microscopy team for hosting me in Strasbourg, FR. I am excited to bring back what I have learned, and I hope to return soon! #UMRS 1255

It was a pleasure to meet you and to have you in our team ! I hope to see you soon too ! 😊

Interested in #ECM & #platelet biology ? Check out our latest reviewed #preprint at @elife.bsky.social A wonderful story lead by A.Eckly and @wclairemasson.bsky.social @inserm.fr where we had a minor contribution Interesting to participate in the new @elife.bsky.social publishing scheme

First post on bluesky goes out to a wonderful annual science retreat that I had the pleasure of attending for UMRS 1255!
