If a metastatic #cancer cell is offered 2 paths it decides very fast, bc it does matter where it goes...

OTOH, if a non-cancer #cell is offered 2 options it takes some time to explore and decide.

#HappyNewYear !
Let's start 2026 with a @cellcommlab.bsky.social paper

How many branches is OK during #CellMigration?
It depends on the #cell: for ex. immune cells are just fine.

How do migrating cell groups balance force and flexibility?

Our new preprint shows that RhoGAP15B downregulates RhoA–Myosin activity to stabilise protrusions and enable efficient collective migration in vivo.

Happy New Year!

The law of the jungle.
Interactions of cells in a collective lead to global rotation.
In 80% of the case HUVEC cells turn clockwise.
How many cells does it take for this to happen?
