How is developmental speed regulated ? 🪰 Happy to share my PhD story from Schweisguth Lab @devstempasteur.bsky.social. Here we show that cellular NAD+ availability and redox constrain developmental speed in the fly eye. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... A big thanks to everyone involved!

Check out my first #preLight on the work of Sokol's team exploring PCP and mechanosensation! It was so much fun to pick a preprint, read it, write about it, and even get to ask the authors questions directly. I have a feeling this is just the beginning of many more preLight posts to come! 🙌

Epithelial morphogenesis is all about how epithelial tissues develop unique shapes and structures! I'm @nehaghosh.bsky.social and will share some research in this area.

Super excited to share that the final version of our study on the role of Adenylate Kinase 7 (AK7) on centriole maturation is finally out! @devbiol.bsky.social Read the full version here: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

The effector caspases drive cell death, but their activation can often be survived, so how do cells make this decision? Our new preprint from @levayerr.bsky.social shows that instantaneous caspase activity is important, but past activation has a key role to play! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

New article alert! Ever met someone who looks exactly like you? Science says it’s more than a coincidence! Read more on the science of look alikes in our latest piece, written by Silvia, PhD student in epigenetics🧬 www.piplettes-pasteur.com/post/you-may...

In their Cell Science at a Glance article, @alinegrata.bsky.social & @levayerr.bsky.social @pasteur.fr describe the remodelling steps that take place within dying or extruding cells, outlining the commonalities & variations between tissues &organisms. journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/...

So happy to share that our review on epithelial cell extrusion is out! @levayerr.bsky.social Extrusion is such a plastic, context-dependent process, so capturing it visually in the poster that accompanies the article was a super challenging but fun task! journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/...

Everything you always wanted to know about cell extrusion in one poster...check out this nice visual piece from @alinegrata.bsky.social and the accompanying review in this "at a glance" piece of @jcellsci.bsky.social journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/...

Just wrapped up an amazing 2-week Principles and Applications of Fluorescent Microscopy #PAFM course @pasteur.fr! Built a microscope, designed a confocal, attended great talks, and got hands-on with the latest tech🔬💡 Great mix of theory and practice. 10/10, highly recommend!🤩 #microscopy #biology

Check out this great article 🫶🏼 Whales, oceans, hearts adaptations, and whatnot🔬✨ Also available in French 🇫🇷 ! @piplettesmagazine.bsky.social
