🧬 New paper alert! We used AFM PeakForce tapping to map the nanoscale topography of the basement membrane in Drosophila wing discs—revealing unexpected fiber-like and self-affine structures. #BasementMembrane #AFM

Happy to share our new work from my graduate lab, with friends & colleagues @suewop.bsky.social, Pieter Derksen, Gary Han, Nikolas Claussen, and @streichan.bsky.social! We find that germ layers exhibit persistent, distinct flow patterns during zebrafish gastrulation.

Stationary and germ layer-specific cellular flows shape the zebrafish gastrula
During gastrulation, a sequence of complex processes transforms the blastula into a multilayered embryo. Fixed sample analysis has revealed much about how genetic signaling cascades determine the majo...

Excited to start my first day as a postdoc in @akankshi.bsky.social's lab! Seeking to understand quantitatively how a living organism can reproducibly form a complex topological structure from simple initial conditions, and what implications this may have for its behavioral function.
