We are the Cluster of Excellence Physics of Life (PoL) at TUD Dresden University of Technology @tudresden.bsky.social @dfg.de.
Our goal is to unravel the principles underlying the organization of living matter.
@ricardalert.bsky.socialReposted by @poldresden.bsky.socialNew preprint! Migrating cell clusters have an asymmetric shape, with higher contact angle at the rear and lower at the front. We explained it by treating the tissue as an active droplet driven by asymmetric tractions!

@mpi-cbg.deReposted by @poldresden.bsky.socialWe presented a film by Carolyn Kirschner on 15.09. @mpi-cbg.de, created with @mpi-cbg.de, @beckergroup.bsky.social, @ritamateus.bsky.social @mosaicgroup.bsky.social @poldresden.bsky.social. The film explores the significance of zebrafish. www.mpi-cbg.de/news-outreac...
@ebisuyamiki.bsky.socialReposted by @poldresden.bsky.socialNew paper from the lab!
We developed a self-organizing bovine muscle and blood vessel-like network from ES cells, bringing us one step closer to creating structured cultured beef steak! 🥩🔬

@poldresden.bsky.social🎉Congratulations to PhD student Olga Lyraki from the Barriga group @eliasbarrigalab.bsky.social for receiving an Onassis Fellowship!
Her project examines how electrochemical signals from the developing eye can guide cell migration to help shape the vertebrate head

@mpi-cbg.deReposted by @poldresden.bsky.socialFilm Screening and Talk: “There is no such thing as fish” September 15th @mpi-cbg.de w Carolyn Kirschner (Artist S=T+ARTS Ec(h)o / Goldsmith U of London) & @ritamateus.bsky.social (research group leader @mpi-cbg.de, @poldresden.bsky.social @tudresden.bsky.social) in dialogue. Everybody is welcome!
@poldresden.bsky.social🧫How can mechanical forces shape life?
We were delighted to see PoL Professor Otger Campàs @campaslab.bsky.social featured in a new Nature Methods article @nature.com highlighting research on the physical forces that sculpt living tissue.
