Just because it's Monday, we love #microscopy & we love #mitochondria, the powerhouse of the #cell
We videoed mito under the microscope to see their dynamics.
Here they join forces!
Ofc we <3 the other #organelles too (to prevent jealousy)

We combined cell biology, #AI based image analysis & a mathematical model to show how migratory behaviour changes with branching
For now macrophages & endothelial cells, but we have many more, stay tuned ;)
Kudos to all authors for the effort, especially to a great Padawan @jboixcampos.bsky.social

#HappyNewYear !
Let's start 2026 with a @cellcommlab.bsky.social paper
How many branches is OK during #CellMigration?
It depends on the #cell: for ex. immune cells are just fine.
