New preprint! 🚨 We uncover a slow adaptation to stretch that links star-bundling of keratin filaments with nuclear escape from its keratin cage. Led by @tomgolde.bsky.social‬ 🙌 @IBECBarcelona www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

We are looking for a postdoc for an ERC funded project at @albertpol.bsky.social Lab at @idibaps.bsky.social in Barcelona. Do you want to use 3D #epithelioids to study the role of lipid droplets against bacterial infections? Come and join us!👇 www.clinicbarcelona.org/uploads/medi...

Today we report that an engineered skin bacterium, swabbed gently on the head of a mouse, can unleash a potent antibody response against a pathogen. Could lead to topical vaccines that are applied in a cream. @djenetbousbaine.bsky.social led the charge... @natureportfolio.bsky.social 1/55

🆕A 3D culture system makes it possible to simulate the behavior of epithelial tissue This technique is an key step forward in understanding how mutations expand in tissues as we age @albertherms.bsky.social @albertpol.bsky.social @hospitalclinic.bsky.social www.clinicbarcelona.org/en/news/a-ne...

Resharing here a recent X post. In this preprint, we introduce an improved version of NanoSeq, a duplex sequencing protocol with <5 errors per billion bp in single DNA molecules, and use it to study the somatic mutation landscape of oral epithelium in >1000 people. 1/ www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1...

Our group investigates the role of #lipid droplets (green) in killing intracellular pathogens (blue, E coli in human macrophages) when they are searching for nutrients. In our family we have nicknamed them defensive lipid droplets and FATal attraction. Credit @robparton.bsky.social @UQpress
