Good times at our traditional Christmas team lunch today 🎄🥂
It was a year full of exciting results, marked by our first PhD student graduating and two preprints published!
Very grateful for this team and all that we’ve achieved together over the past four years.
Looking forward to what’s next! 🙏✨
🏳️🌈 This June, CBI celebrates LGBT+ Pride Month.
To all LGBT+ members of our community:
❤️ You are welcome here.
🧡 You belong here.
💛 You are valued here.
💚 We stand with you.
Posters, quiz and a convivial Pride apéro coming soon at CBI!

Paper alert! β-catenin forms condensates that help build cell–cell adhesions - showing its role goes beyond simply linking E-cadherin to α-cat/actin. Great collaboration with the Schuijers lab!

Group Leader Call at the @cbitoulouse.bsky.social in
Genome biology, projects at the interface with devbio will be given particular attention. please share :)

Development builds... But it also breaks!
Planarians split to reproduce. Hydra tears open a mouth. Embryos fracture to make cavities.
Failure? No. Fracture is essential to development.
Our new review on fracture physics and its uses in development:

🚨🚨🚨
The SFBD board needs to be renewed with 5 members
We wish to strengthen our board with young scientists
To apply: send a brief text introducing your research interests and motivations to [email protected] by December 4th
Elections will be held online from December 10th to 17th
Please share the info
#HappyNewYear !
Let's start 2026 with a @cellcommlab.bsky.social paper
How many branches is OK during #CellMigration?
It depends on the #cell: for ex. immune cells are just fine.

Excited to share our work on epithelial multilayering - identifying why stem cell stay in the basal layer and how and why differentiating cells move up. Great collab with @manningresearch.bsky.social and Niessen labs! Check out preprint and great summary below www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

New paper out!
We show how mechanosensitive adherens junction proteins link actomyosin contractility to actin assembly using in vitro reconstitution.
Huge congrats to Aurélie Favarin, Rayan Said, & all authors!

Happy to highlight our collaborative work from our @ijmonod.bsky.social team with @destriano.bsky.social, B. Goyeau and M. Chabanon.
Cytoplasmic crowding acts as a porous medium that hinders macromolecular diffusivity.
Plus: a clever way to measure cell volume.

Summary: This Review presents mechanical fracture as a unifying morphogenetic strategy and describes how developmental systems actively exploit mechanical fracture to drive morphogenesis, reproduction...
