Our work on the mechanoresponsiveness of actin is out! While plant microtubules have been extensively studied for their role in mechanobiology, actin has very much been ignored. Here we show that actin responds to cellular deformations within minutes and observed it in Marchantia and Arabidopsis!

EMBL meeting on Mechanobiology: @green-te.bsky.social en force, filling the two front rows and prominently featured with >10 posters or talks 🌱✊

Fantastic 2 days to discuss plant cell plasticity and latest single cell & spatial technologies at our ASPIRE & GreenTE gathering 🌱🍃🌿! Many thanks to @PaszkowskiLab & @JST_ASPIRE ❤️.

On 22 april at 2 PM CET, the MechnoBioTalks webinar series will continue with Michael Nash. His research focuses on engineering the mechanical properties of biomolecules with highly interdisciplinary research, combining single-molecule biophysics, molecular modelling, and high-throughput screening.

We’re hiring! 🌱🔬 Join GreenTE as a Postdoc to study how mechanical signals drive seed germination. You’ll explore how physical cues are translated into biochemical signals. Interested? Check out the link below: green-te.nl/job/new-post...
