At the @cbsmontpellier.bsky.social we equipped the JKP atomic force microscope, mounted on an inverted microscope, with photothermal excitation. This custom-built optical pathway focuses a laser onto the cantilever in our correlative AFM–fluorescence microscopy setup. @costaluca.bsky.social

Postdoctoral position in the team of Alessandro Barducci in the CBS, focusing on multiscale simulations of RNA-driven condensates, with applications in synthetic biology. More information : www.cbs.cnrs.fr/images/jobs/... The position is expected to start in early 2026, with some flexibility.

Excited to share our new preprint on Myxococcus xanthus! We show that two distinct motility motors can propel the same bacterial cell simultaneously, and that this dual propulsion is tunable by environmental calcium. 🧵 1/6 📄 Read it here →https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.10.29.685086v1
