Active forces driving spreading and retraction of living tissues Carlos Pérez González, Integrative Cell and Tissue Dynamics group Development, regeneration and cancer involve drastic transitions in tissue morphology. In analogy with the behaviour of inert fluids, some of these transitions have been interpreted as wetting transitions. The validity and scope of this analogy are unclear, ... Read more

Optical control of endogenous receptors and cellular excitability with light Aida Garrido, Nanoprobes and nanoswitches group Light-controlled manipulation of neuronal activity has transformed the field of neurobiology. Light provides temporal and spatial resolution over activation or inhibition of targeted populations of neurons, one single neuron or single synapses. Such precision could be achieved with optogenetics, ... Read more
