Congratulations to Elisabeth on her paper about the biophysics of mitotic cell rounding

Post by Carsten Hoege

Hyman lab postdoc Elisabeth Fischer-Friedrich —you may remember her Two Minute Talk on Cell Rounding! — has just published a paper on the work she discussed in her video. You can read the free full text of her paper, here. This paper is the result of a collaboration between the Hyman and Jülicher labs in Dresden and the Müller and Helenius labs at ETH-Zurich.
