@drsusanna.bsky.social paper is now out in its final form. Relative to the original preprint, we now show additional mutant data and a better way to display heat maps of gene activation. www.cell.com/current-biol...

Be on the lookout for an exciting meeting that Matilde @matildegalli.bsky.social , Silvia @santoslab.bsky.social and I are organizing next year in Amsterdam. It will be a lot of fun. coming-soon.embo.org/w27-24

Nice new paper from Stas Shvartsman's group presenting an elegant mathematical model for the control of metamorphosis and testing it using Erk optogenetics. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Happy to have contributed, together with former student Yitong Xu, to this paper. Read the thread below from @brugueslab.bsky.social for more details.

Excited to share Alison's @alisonkickuth.bsky.social paper from the lab out in @nature.com this week! We uncovered how a mechanical ratchet mechanism drives cytokinesis in early #zebrafish embryos. Read more in this thread 🧵 and at www.nature.com/articles/s41... 🤩 @poldresden.bsky.social @mpi-cbg.de

Congrats, Ale and lab. A big step forward with a lot of new and unexpected observations! These waves are fascinating indeed

@sushantbangru.bsky.social and @rdiegmiller.bsky.social new review on regeneration is out in Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology. A fun piece to write and another great collaboration with @kenposs.bsky.social.

Using quantitative live imaging, Brantley et al. reveal that cells decode dynamic BMP signaling during dorsal patterning of the Drosophila embryo by integrating activity over time. These results advan...

Really excited to share our new paper in @nature.com! We uncovered how a physical instability of the cytoplasm coupled with the cell cycle drives cytoplasmic partitioning in early embryos #zebrafish #drosophila.

The lab’s first pre-print! We investigated how growth-inducing Erk activity waves are regulated in regenerating zebrafish scales. We discovered that Erk waves are followed by waves of expression of their own inhibitors, as predicted by excitable waves theory. tinyurl.com/26r2cmpj

Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology, Published online: 11 November 2025; doi:10.1038/s41580-025-00917-1The ability to track single cells in vivo, combined with insights into chromatin structure, immune–tissue crosstalk, bioelectric and metabolic cues and quantitative modelling, is changing our understanding of how tissues are repaired and renewed. This Review discusses how signals are regulated during regeneration and future directions for a more quantitative understanding of regenerative biology.
