- Reposted by Cornelia Schwayer🚨 Job Alert: we seek a Lab Manager for @juliabatki.bsky.social's new group (start Mar 2026), which will study cell fate regulation during organ development. Join the Batki's group to drive experiments & lab operations! Apply at: www.fmi.ch/education-ca...
- Reposted by Cornelia Schwayer🥳 Thrilled to share our lab's first preprint, led by our talented postdoc Justine Creff! 👩🏻🔬 We tackled a fundamental question: how the epithelium withstands mechanical stress at the interface of cells with distinct geometries and mechanics, such as enterocytes (E) and goblet cells (G) (1/9)
- Reposted by Cornelia SchwayerAre material phase transitions more than simple regulators of tissue deformability? Check our latest work uncovering that rigidity transitions can trigger cell polarity! Congratulations to @laura-rustarazo.bsky.social , @crisp-c.bsky.social and Adrián for leading this work!
- 🎉 Excited to share our new work: “Adhesion-driven tissue rigidification triggers epithelial cell polarity”, now on @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social ! A huge thank you to @nicolettapetridou.bsky.social, Bernat, @crisp-c.bsky.social, Adrián, and everyone involved! 🙌 🧵⤵️

- Ever wondered how the gut changes during pregnancy and lactation? Check out this new work by Tomo Ameku, @irenemiguel-aliaga.bsky.social lab and co-authors. Happy that we could contribute to this beautiful story using the organoid system ☺️
- Epic effort led by Tomo Ameku in the lab, with contributions from the labs of Nick Bellono, Vassilis Pachnis, @francoisleulier.bsky.social, @schwarzergnoto.bsky.social, @priscaliberali.bsky.social, @coxlabkcl.bsky.social, @priscaliberali.bsky.social and Maria Rodriguez-Colman

- I am very excited to share our most recent work on how ‘Cell heterogeneity and fate bistability drive tissue patterning during intestinal regeneration’ ☺️ Thanks a lot to @silviabarbiero.bsky.social @davidbrueckner.bsky.social @priscaliberali.bsky.social @ehannezo.bsky.social and all the co-authors!
- A perfect start in the new year! 🌱 Regenerating tissues are just an amazing spatio temporal controlled process! Our new manuscript explores how cell heterogeneity and bistability orchestrate intestinal regeneration. 🧵 biorxiv.org/cgi/content/...
