Un pétition du collège des sociétés savantes pour mettre en avant le rôle de la recherche dans la campagne politique à venir et rappeler le sous investissement chronique en France depuis 20 ans. N'hésitez pas à faire ciculer recherche-publique-2027.fr

Well, now that my pipettes have been delivered, I guess I can announce that I am opening my own lab in Rome @UniRomaTre 👩‍🔬👨‍🔬🔬 funded by a FIS3 Starting Grant On active cytoskeleton stuff, of course !

📢 We are looking for a Junior Group Leader to join us at @institutcurie.bsky.social! Having joined the department just over a year ago, I can honestly say that it is an exceptionally stimulating and supportive scientific environment, filled with outstanding colleagues — all in the heart of Paris.

Registration for the Cell Biology and Cancer course at Institut Curie is now open! Explore how biological forms emerge across scales, from intracellular organization to tissues. 📅 November 16th-20th, 2026 (Paris) ⏳ Deadline: September 10th, 2026 🔗 training.institut-curie.org/cours/biolog...

Ready for #CellLaVie2026? Program & registration are live! Join us Oct 21–23, 2026 at Institut Pasteur, Paris, for multidisciplinary cell biology, imaging, talks, posters & outreach, w/ Manuel Théry's behind-the-scenes look at the Musée d’Orsay video-mapping project. www.atoutcom.com/cell-la-vie/

🔬 First live-cell imaging experiments done in my lab at HKU! Human RPE1 cells expressing Lifeact-GFP (actin) and EB3-GFP (MT plus-ends), imaged in Fast Airyscan mode on a Zeiss LSM 900👇. Thanks to Denise Kuok Iok Teng for imaging setup, and to Manuel Théry & Louise Bonnemay for the cells 🙏🫶😆

First paper as first & corresponding author, out in PLOS Computational Biology! 🎉 napariTFM brings traction force & monolayer stress microscopy into napari, accessible via GUI; open-source, validated and no coding required. 😉 Check it out 👇

And here's my small contribution, an actin dynamic state that continuosuly contracts, on the roof of the museum!

We just released a new major version of TrackMate (v8), the cell and organelle tracking plugin of Fiji. It ships many new features, detailed below, but that are articulated around the following:

Go right or left? A question that we encounter very often in our daily lives, and while our decision may sometimes be hindered by the fear of making a mistake, cells DO NOT HESITATE!!! They swirl with the confidence of someone who’s always RIGHT… or LEFT!!!

Launching celldynamicslab.com, the homepage of our new group at EPFL working on cell fragmentation, membrane and cortex mechanics, FLIM imaging, and microfluidics tools. MSc/PhD or postdocs interested in quantitative cell biology are welcome to reach out. We're also hiring a lab manager in 2026!

My team is recruiting a Study Engineer (IE) with experience in mammalian cell culture - ideally human iPSCs - to work on a project exploring the role of aneuploidy and centromere regulation in neuroblastoma initiation and progression. info and application here institut-curie.org/job/study-en....

Learn all things #cytoskeleton #research in an interdisciplinary environment at EMBO Workshop "Structure and Function of the Cytoskeleton" in Paris, FR, 7–10 April 2026. Deadline: 20 December 2025 https://meetings.embo.org/event/26-cytoskeleton #EMBOCytoskeletalFunction #EMBOevents #conference 🧪

Structure and Function of the Cytoskeleton

The cytoskeleton, a dynamic and intricate network of protein filaments, is found within the cytoplasm of all cells, from bacteria and archaea to complex eukaryotes. This essential cellular component …

#Microtubule-driven cell shape changes and #actomyosin flow synergize to position the #centrosome, say Alexandre Schaeffer, Manuel Théry (@manuelthery.bsky.social ) and colleagues: rupress.org/jcb/article/... @lblanchoin.bsky.social @gelinmatthieu.bsky.social #Biophysics #Cytoskeleton

Unlike eggs & mitotic cells, in adherent interphasic cells the centrosome is NOT positioned by a balance of forces along #microtubules, but by cell shape organization around the #centrosome: rupress.org/jcb/article/... @lblanchoin.bsky.social @manuelthery.bsky.social @gelinmatthieu.bsky.social

There are days in life that shake you. I’m shattered 💔 to share that I just found out that the US Government terminated my 2024 NIH Director’s Early Independence Award (~$2 million), threatening my long-promised assistant professor job at Columbia University & academic career... 1/🧵

New preprint out 🔥🔥 on my postdoc work with @manuelthery.bsky.social and @lblanchoin.bsky.social about how we can create sustained dynamic steady states of actin network inside microscopic wells that contract "forever" without collapsing! A thread 🧵 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
