Just published 📢 @herveturlier.bsky.social and I show how the most advanced unfitted finite elements can increase our capacity to investigate fundamental problems in cell morphogenesis. 👉 Link to paper: doi.org/10.1016/j.jc... 🚀 Stay tuned for future applications to animal systems!

Our latest work on shape-programmable tissues is out in @science.org. By positioning topological defects in cellular nematics, we encode frustrated 2D force fields that relax into predictable 3D shapes. Collaboration with Marino Arroyo’s lab, led by @pauguillamat.bsky.social at @ibecbarcelona.eu.

How can we learn tissue mechanics directly from cell patterns and images? In our new preprint, we introduce VertAX, a differentiable vertex-model framework in JAX for simulating epithelia, inferring parameters, and designing target tissue behaviors. shorturl.at/PUzT0 1/5

New #Sci #Job ! Together with six other PI’s based at the Universities of Tübingen - Heidelberg - Hohenheim and the Max Planck Institute for Biology in Tübingen, we are looking for two PhD students and a Postdoc for our LEAP project, which is part of the Cluster of Excellence @greenrobust.de

Job alert🚨I am advertising a 2-year postdoctoral position to work on the mathematics of plant morphogenesis @mpipz.bsky.social. Candidates with interests in mathematical modelling, mechanics, or biophysics are strongly encouraged to apply. 🌱Reposts are appreciated! jobs.mpipz.mpg.de/jobposting/4...

Biophysicists are realizing that there is an undervalued element at play in early development: Aside from genes, mechanical forces also steer the growth of embryos. @annademming.bsky.social reports: www.quantamagazine.org/genes-have-h...

The BM^2 Lab is hiring a Ph.D. student to work on a variety of problems connected to modeling of morphogenesis in plants (i.e. ovule curvature formation, fixed handedness establishment in certain plant organs and its link to cell wall mechanics). Please share!

Leaving today @college-de-france.fr after 4 years. Thank you @herveturlier.bsky.social for the opportunity to work in your lab. Thanks to everyone at the @cirbcdf.bsky.social for making this such a stimulating and life-changing experience. Very excited to continue my research at the @upc.edu.

Three-Year Funded Postdoctoral Position to study organelle architecture in mammalian oocytes – Terret-Verlhac Lab, CIRB, Collège de France (Starting 2026). For more information, please contact: [email protected]

Wonderful (and humble) essay on mentorship by Brandon Gaut, on occasion of Brandon receiving the inaugural Mentorship Award of @genetics-gsa.bsky.social. I hope this will be widely read! academic.oup.com/genetics/art...

Intensive week at NTNU working together with @massing.bsky.social on our ongoing projects face-to-face for the first time! Thank you @massing.bsky.social for the warm welcome and scientific exchanges and @ifofficiel.bsky.social de Norvège for the financial support via the Åsgard mobility program.

Very excited to share a new preprint by @ericneiva.bsky.social who developed a first-of-its-kind finite element method for simulating 3D cellular dynamics with coupled surface–bulk flows and signaling. A technical tour de force with broad applications in mechanobiology & beyond tinyurl.com/bdfhfke3

📢 Fresh from the arXiv’s oven! 🥧 Our new work brings the newest evolving sharp-interface FE methods on fixed grids to the realm of living animal cells. Code available at github.com/ericneiva/Su...
