Proud to share this work with @KevinChalut and @Byron_Mui Why do some injuries scar while others regenerate? Using digit tip models, we show the ECM is a key driver. HA-rich ECM promotes regeneration, and boosting it can shift healing away from fibrosis. science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

Thanks a lot, Michel, for joining us and delivering an amazing and inspiring talk! Reptiles are just great - and full of physics!
Fascinating discussions yesterday at the 2026 Spring Meeting of the German Physical Society (DPG) in Dresden.
Thanks to @Franze_Lab for the invitation to speak about tissue mechanics.
Our 3D prints of crocodile embryos sparked a lot of curiosity among researchers and students.

Highly recommended, great lab! And even if I may be a bit biased, I think the environment is also cool. #mechanobiology #MPZPM

We will miss you badly, my friend...
Jochen Guck just passed away. He was not only a brilliant mind, amazing researcher, and outstanding person — he was also one of the best friends one could ever have. Jochen, you will be missed so deeply. Your spirit and laughter will stay in our hearts forever.

Thanks @DionnHargreaves @LabWoolner @Dev_journal for highlighting our preprint! Curious how mechanical and chemical signaling guide axon pathfinding—or how frogs are an excellent model for unpicking this question?@Franze_Lab @EvaPillai 🐸🧠 Check it out. #xenopus #Devbio
