We're excited to introduce a new, physiologically relevant human pancreatic ductal organoid for studying collective cell rotational migration: Check out the persistent rotation we observed via live imaging. #CellBiology #Organoids #Morphogenesis

Rotational migration in human pancreatic ductal organoids depends on actin and myosin activity
Communications Biology - Pancreatic ductal organoids serve as a primary human model to study rotational migration — a process driven by myosin-dependent contractility, actin polymerization,...

Emergence of cellular nematic order is a conserved feature of gastrulation in animal embryos
Nature Communications - The morphogenetic events that occur during gastrulation involve dramatic cell- and tissue-level changes. Here they show that propagation of nematic order, leading to...

Morphogenesis alert! A unifying physical principle links gastrulation in frogs, fish and flies! Stoked to be part of this new paper with Xin Li in Dave Thirumalai's lab and Robert Huebner in my group and a co-lab with @peiferlabunc.bsky.social and Margot Williams.

Scientific collaborations come in many flavors & are fun because they expose you to new areas of science. That was definitely the case for this paper, out today. We were definitely in the passenger seat but it was fun to go along for the ride 1/n
