From embryos to equations and back. We study how physical principles shape life, from collective DNA–protein interactions to mesoscale processes within cells and tissues. Tweets by Grill Lab members. https://grill-lab.org
Biohub @biohub.org and @maxplanck.de, represented by @mpi-cbg.de and @mpipks.bsky.social, invite applications for the Global Science Scholars program, a three year international postdoctoral fellowship program between the U.S. and Germany. www.czbiohub.org/program-mpi-...
Elisabeth Knust -- former director at the @mpi-cbg.de -- acknowledges the "priviledge to do curiosity-driven science" in her acceptance speech for the Klaus Sander lifetime award of the @gfeev.bsky.social at #gfe2026 in @unipotsdam.bsky.social. Congratulations!
Are robotic swarms the next state of matter? Excited to share the very first preprint from the lab! "Three phases of odd robotic matter" arxiv.org/abs/2603.09897
In our latest preprint we show that Lifeact::mKate2 can reverse the chirality of active torques in the actomyosin cortex. This results in cortical flows with opposite handedness during left-right symmetry breaking, leading to the formation of situs inversus worms. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
We invite you to submit your latest research to our upcoming special issue - Imaging Cell Architecture and Dynamics. This issue will be coordinated by @franbottanelli.bsky.social and Giulia Zanetti, alongside our Editor @guijacquemet.bsky.social. journals.biologists.com/jcs/pages/im...
A position with prospects! We offer excellent researchers again the possibility to apply for a position as a Leader of a Lise Meitner Research Group in all areas of #science. Applications are possible between February 11th and April 15th, 2026. www.mpg.de/lise-meitner... #lisemeitnergroups
The Lab of Stephan Grill at MPI-CBG has finally made it to Bluesky and we also have a brand new homepage: grill-lab.org Check it out.
