Interphase cell morphology defines the mode, symmetry, and outcome of mitosis
During tissue formation, dynamic cell shape changes drive morphogenesis while asymmetric divisions create cellular diversity. We found that the shifts in cell morphology that shape tissues could conco...

Often take a moment to stop at look at this photo in the reception of the building where I work. It was taken in 1968 by Shirley Baker from the spot the building was later built.

So proud of my dear friend Pleasantine Mill @cilialab.bsky.social, winner of the 2025 @bsdb.bsky.social Wolpert medal

She gives an impassioned speech on the importance of community & connection, particularly during these precarious times

If you can't read her slide, do see alt text
