After 8 amazing months at the NYU/Center for Soft Matter Research I had to say goodbye😭to a wonderful group of colleagues and students. Thanks for the hospitality and patience in teaching me active swimmers and holographic tweezers🤩. Next thing to do: Setting it up in Germany💪
Getting tissue stress from images is tough, and elastic tension sensors are a way to solve this. Still, the analysis is complex. Try our GUI gitlab.gwdg.de/betzlab_publ... implementing analytical solutions to obtain surface stresses AND shape parameters of beads and nuclei.
I am so proud. Dorian's poster was selected for the posterprize at this years spring meeting of the German Physical Society🥳. Well deserved💪. Three prizes by my students in three years. I am so lucky that I can call this talented crowd of passionate researchers the BetzLab 🤩

You are a biologist and want to get an idea why looking at intracellular active mechanics is important for cellular function? Check out our recent review preprint: arxiv.org/abs/2501.14538. We try to give an intuitive access, but also provide details in extensive toolboxes.
