Excited to share that our paper is out in @natcomms.nature.com 🔗 rdcu.be/ez3Gt We uncover how MICAL1 regulates actin dynamics to enhance VWF–GPIbα binding in platelets. Big thanks to all co-authors & collaborators ! @hithlabinserm1176.bsky.social @echardlab-pasteur.bsky.social

F-actin disassembly by the oxidoreductase MICAL1 promotes mechano-dependent VWF-GPIbα interaction in platelets

Nature Communications - To stop bleeding from an injured vessel, platelets adhere and form a clot despite high shear stress from the flow. Here, the authors show that platelet actin disassembly is...

👏very nice congress in Lausanne for the #GTH2025. Proud of Jean Solarz, working in our group for 4 years now has PhD student, for his presentation on MICAL1 in platelets. #hemsky #hemesky

Great presention of Caterina Casari during the #GTH2025 on SynthoPlates. When art meets science. 🇨🇭 @caterinacasari.bsky.social #womeninscience #synthoplates

👏An incredible session by 3 incredible women during the #gth2025 with Alessandra Balduini on Red blood cells prod, Catherine Strassel on platelet prod and Caterina Casari with bioinspired platelets. @alessandrabalduini.bsky.social @caterinacasari.bsky.social

The lab is at #GTH2025 in Lausanne with Caterina, Jean and Alex! Jean has already presented his study, but don't miss Caterina tomorrow with the SynthoPlates! @caterinacasari.bsky.social @alexkzis.bsky.social #Science #congress #switzerland

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.

Super talk of Stephan Schiffels from Max Planck Institute during the #GTH congress. We are all a mix from our genetic heritage and immigration ! @mpimmg.bsky.social #freedom #immigration @stschiff.ecoevo.social.ap.brid.gy
