Also sincere thanks to Dr. Vikas Trivedi for helping me dive deep into the mechanobiology world, for always supporting me during the difficult times!

Additional thanks go to all facilities involved at EMBL Barcelona, CRG, MPI-CBG, PoL and CMCB.

Special thank to my supervisors Prof. Miki Ebisuya for always trusting my crazy ideas, respecting my decisions, and giving me freedom to explore!

Big thanks to Prof. Otger Campàs for keeping pushing the physical aspects of the project and for all the wonderful discussion!

Finally my PhD work is out in bioarxiv! We identified a transient fluidization in the basal region of human neuroepithelia, which may contribute to the early human-specific brain expansion! It highlights tissue fluidity as a previously underappreciated dimension of evolutionary neurobiology.

New preprint from the lab! We discovered a transient fluidization in the basal region of human forebrains by tracking microdroplets in cerebral organoids.This “basal fluidization”, absent in gorilla and mouse, may contribute to greater surface expansion in human forebrains
