- We're hiring! Postdoc position to work on collaborative projects building mathematical models of cell and tissue mechanics and biochemistry (PDEs and ABMs). For more details and to apply see northeastern.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/careers/job/...
- Excited to announce that I am organizing the "Quantitative Modeling Insights for Cytoskeleton Dynamics and Cell Polarity" minisymposium at ASCB Cell Bio with @buttenschoen.ca Veronica Ciocanel & Anna Nelson. We are 👀 for exciting speakers! Interested? Submit an abstract www.ascb.org/cellbio2025/...

- Reposted by Calina CoposNSF Physics was cut by 85%, basically wiping out most of its capacity for supporting research. NSF Astronomy was cut by 53% Undergrad education was cut by 71% and research on learning by 79% Graduate education was cut by 100% to ZERO. #GiftLink ⚛️🔭 www.nytimes.com/interactive/...
- When it comes to getting from A to B, is it smarter to buddy up as a supra-cell or go solo like two independent adventurers sharing the load? Check out our answer in this new modeling work! www.nature.com/articles/s41...
- Probably ancient at this point, but as a mathematician, I laughed out loud at the thought of "equality" being a potential screening keyword for NSF proposals. Dang! Kids, from now on we shall call the equal sign... double line?!? 🤦♀️
- New form of procrastination uncovered... making figures for departmental murals.

- @ascbiology.bsky.social 2024 has been a lot of fun! A sneak peek on our quantitative modeling work on motility modes of doublets.
- All about cell doublets! Our group has two new papers out, including on the signaling rules for collective polarization. More in 2025! journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol...
