Hi #ScienceMastodon. @focalplane_jcs is your #microscopy community site hosted by @J_Cell_Sci & @Co_Biologists, connecting people, resources & info.
Anyone can contribute on https://focalplane.biologists.com. We’ll be tooting the latest news & posts from the #community. You can also join and use the FocalPlane Network to make new connections.

We’ve just moved over to our own instance @biologists.social, & hope that you’ll join us there for friendly chats between biologists!

For #CellMigration lovers
How do cells decide when facing a symmetric junction?
The membrane oscillates exploring both directions until one arm wins.
TLDR: this depends on the actin cytoskeleton & cancer cells decide faster than healthy cells

Emergent seesaw oscillations during cellular directional decision-making - Nature Physics

Cell motion along linear confinements is deterministic. Now a model predicts deterministic oscillations in cellular polarization at a Y junction in a set-up with adhesive patterns.

#DarthVader cell using the force to choke another one (arrow/red nucleus) until...well, wait for it to see it in slow motion
Only the sound is missing to be like #StarWars

For the long weekend.

#Mitochondria, powerhouse of the #cell were labeled (cyan) and it's possible to visualize how they reach every corner.

Last week @Martina_Alamo_R finished her internship @ the @cellcommlab, and left Hamburg.
Now she is back home @LabYuseff 🇨🇱 to finish her #PhD thesis.
Good luck Marti, we already miss you (and your experiments of 300 coverslips 😅 support pic 👇🏼)

Hi tweeps do you know any free/good/fast/easy to use screen recorder?

We were using https://www.freescreenrecording.com/ before they decided to mess up everything and ask for money.

With @JBoixCampos we tried several others but nothing worked like that one...
