I study how lymphocytes self-organize into multicellular structures. Also interested in how cells sense and respond to chemical gradients. Currently: Wyss Institute at Harvard. Previously: Comp Bio at Duke. debrajghose.com

- 1/5: New preprint: Cytokines control the physical state of immune tissue. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Unlike structured organs (heart, liver), immune tissue can shapeshift to form functional structures like germinal centers (GCs), tertiary lymphoid organs, granulomas, etc.

- Reposted by Debraj GhoseFINALLY out in #Science Advances! 🎉 3 years of hard work, a fantastic team — and I’m proud to be first and co-corresponding author! It's about Plexin signaling driving collective cell migration & organ sculpting. Check out the videos 😀 www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... #DevBio #CellBio #Microscopy

- Reposted by Debraj GhoseWhat governs where DNA replication begins in human cells? Here, we show that origins of replication in human DNA are epigenetically specified and that crucially, this epigenetic mark is required for both DNA replication and cell proliferation! @narjournal.bsky.social academic.oup.com/nar/article/...

- We found that cells use emergent collective memory—arising from simple chemical reactions—to outperform physical limits of detecting chemical gradients. Curious how? 1/n 8 min talk: www.youtube.com/watch?v=A7XH... bioRxiv: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... #biophysics #cellbiology

- Reposted by Debraj Ghose"Ants solving a geometric problem and it's amazing." This is a great example of 'emergent phenomenon': - None of the ants understand the problem they're solving. - None of them can see the whole shape. - A series of small decisions or rules add up to something with a new layer of complexity.

- @itaiyanai.bsky.social I completely agree! However, I've noticed people sometimes misinterpret the advice to avoid rigid hypotheses and assume they don't need to have questions while generating or analyzing data
