Congratulations Mary Ann Collins on publishing review article on plant and animal morphogenesis in Developmental Cell!
Congratulations to graduate student, Natalie Heer, for publishing her review article “Tension, Contraction and Tissue Morphogenesis” in Development. Natalie contributed to the special issue celebrating the 100th anniversary of “On Growth and Form.” Her review article describes the latest research explaining how forces are generated to sculpt tissues.
Graduate student Clint Ko and Undergraduate Prateek Kalakuntla publish MBoC paper on how mitotic entry can repress ‘active’ contractility and result in relaxation that promotes neighboring tissue folding.
Congratulations grad student, Marlis Denk-Lobnig, on her paper titled Combinatorial patterns of graded RhoA activation and uniform F-actin depletion promote tissue curvature being published by Development.
Adam Martin has been promoted to Associate Professor, effective July 1, 2016.
Congratulations Mimi Xie for publishing her work “Loss of Gα12/13 Exacerbates Apical Area-dependence of Actomyosin Contractility” in Molecular Biology of the Cell! Mimi showed how apical actin density can depend on apex size. Suppressing this dependence is important to coordinate contractility across a tissue.
Congratulations to graduate student, Jonathan Coravos, on passing his qualifying exam.
