Using mainly immune cells, we try to understand how cells migrate, change shape and interact in tissues. #immunecells #cellmigration Run by lab members! sixt.pages.ist.ac.at @ISTAustria Joined March 2022

If you would like to help science become more sustainable: • Reuse gloves when possible, they can be sterilized with no change in their properties: 📄twtr.to/uPYLx • Don't overstock-gloves do expire!

An institute like ISTA consumes around 1700 gloves/day. These gloves are often discarded after a single use. Although nitrile CAN be recycled, Europe lacks sufficient infrastructure to process this material, so the gloves end up being incinerated.

We teamed up with @ISTAsustainable and Saki, visiting artist @ISTAustria, and collected used non-contaminated gloves. The result was a beautiful dress worth a red carpet event in the lab. Check more of her work 👉sakitheartist.com 📸juergenhofmann.com

Last Friday our @ERC_Research synergy team #pushingcell got together @institut_curie in Paris. Great discussion with @BassereauTeam, @PierreSens group and Anna Akhamnova’s team!

👻Trick or treat?🎃 Here is a treat 🍬 In our new perspective article @mi_riedl dives into the self-organizing principles behind actin polymerization and the Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction. Two seemingly different systems, one underlying principle. 👉 shorturl.at/hyUY3

@mi_riedl paper is officially out in @NatureComms! We show that actin wave synchronization unifies the speed in collectively moving cells. Our unconventional "toy" model emphasizes the importance of nearest-neighbor coupling in this process. Check it here: rdcu.be/dl0JF

Thrilled to announce the publication of my first lead-authored paper @NatureComms: Combining cell biology with an unconventional toy model, we show that synchronization unifies speeds in a collective. rdcu.be/dl0JF

(5/6) DCs don't just passively follow chemical cues! CCR7 senses CCL19 and actively shapes the distribution of chemokine. This dual function allows immune cells to generate their own gradients, guiding their collective migration in complex environments more effectively.

🧵(1/6) How do immune cells know where to go? It has been proposed that cells simply respond to externally established gradients of chemokines, but we think that’s not all…

@reenak52086225 @globalimmuno And maybe ezrin surrounds the spot and keeps it confined? We do not know why it is always spots of WASP and never bigger areas. Let's find out!
