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 to postdoc, Soline Chanet, for being awarded an EMBO Long-Term Fellowship.
Congratulations to Hannah Yevick and Clint Ko on submitting their papers. You can read Hannah’s paper titled Structural redundancy in supracellular actomyosin networks enables robust tissue folding, and Clint’s paper titled Microtubules stabilize intercellular contractile force transmission during tissue folding on BioRxiv.
Several members of the Martin lab – Juana De la O, Anthony Mc Dougal, and Mingmar Sherpa – will be attending the 13th annual International Conference on Neural Tube Defects at the University of British Columbia from August 11th – 14th. Juana and Anthony will be giving talks on their research, while Mingmar will be presenting a poster. Please come by and say hello!
Congratulations Jaci on a stellar PhD thesis and tour de force paper. We wish her the best of luck on her next position in industry!
