It is with infinite sadness that we learned of the passing of Clarisse Orniacki. She joined @vdoye.bsky.social lab and defended her thesis in December 2022 and pursued her career with a postdoc in‬ @tedfon.bsky.social at McGill University in Montreal . Tribute 🔗 www.ijm.fr/tribute-to-c...

If I could change one thing about #ScientificPublishing I'd ask funding bodies to stipulate all work they fund be published in non-profit journals. The knock-on effects would alleviate most of the strain on #AcademicSky. This isn't hard. It's big, but actually, it's pretty easy. 1/n

Nice preprint from Basto lab (Curie)! Polyploid Drosophila salivary gland cells eliminate centrosomes via novel MyoII- and autophagy-dependent exocytosis: preserves mitochondrial function and supports high metabolic demands. Interesting secretory autophagy pathway! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

It always surprises me that young people know about Watson and Crick but not about Jacob and Monod when the contribution of the latter is, imo, of bigger significance and creativity than the other's which would have been found sooner or later. Not so much of the day #GRN framework.

One of the most exciting discoveries from our lab so far is now online as a preprint! Read a story on how the ParMR and Min systems started to collaborate to create the CorMR cytoskeleton, which now controls cell shape in multicellular cyanobacteria: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
