New pape from my lab on how the exquisite biomechanical structure of joints, tendons, other doohickeys determine mechanosensory feature selectivity and establish a topographic map of joint angle among proprioceptive sensory neurons in the fly leg. The product of an expansive and fun collaboration across several labs.
Our next #preprint list is now up on FocalPlane. This week we focus on preprints that use #imaging techniques to answer questions in cell and developmental biology. We hope you find the list useful and let us know if there is a preprint we need to add!

🚨 New preprint out 🚨 !
"A computational pipeline for spatial mechano-transcriptomics":
http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2023.08.03.551894v1?rss=1
A new approach bringing together spatial transcriptomics and mechanobiology to yield new insights on how genes and mechanical forces work in concert to shape the embryo!
Congratulations to Adrien Hallou @gurdoninstitute , Bianca Dumitrascu @Columbia & collaborators 🎉👏 !
We are delighted with the excellent abstracts submitted so far for the European Developmental Biology Congress #EDBC2023. If you are coming to the meeting you are in for a treat.
The deadline to be considered for a short talk is now passed, but you can still submit an abstract to present a poster in Oxford, Paris or Barcelona
Don't miss out- Register soon!

Raj Kumar Sadhu, Aleš Iglič and Nir Gov review theoretical works demonstrating that curved membrane-bound protein complexes recruit cytoskeletal components, which together with the membrane, self-organise to form lamellipodia.
Summary: We review theoretical works, demonstrating that curved membrane-bound protein complexes that recruit the protrusive forces of the cytoskeleton self-organize the cytoskeleton and the membrane to form lamellipodia.
