Does viscoelastic confinement physically alter cell proliferation?
Sree @padmanabh97 & @Mridul_Gautam01, along with @bagade_nikita18 & Sunil Laxman, discovered a 3D confinement-driven cell cycle regulation in budding yeast. (1/9)

BREAKING NEWS
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2024 #NobelPrize in Chemistry with one half to David Baker “for computational protein design” and the other half jointly to Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper “for protein structure prediction.”

How do dynamical forces generated by tissue movement affect organ morphology changes during embryonic development?
Using Kupffer’s vesicle in zebrafish embryo as a model organ we showed that dynamical forces produce shape changes in a developing organ.

How do mechanical factors like ECM stiffness alter the internal organization of a cell? @piyushdaga4892 from our lab shows that ECM stiffening triggers the clustering of mitochondria around the cell nucleus, which in turn influences stem cell differentiation.
