Munich news, health insurance, technology, jobs and other topics for expatriates. The Eye Newspapers covers daily news and offers services for foreigners.

Cancer cells are subjected to high mechanical pressure that leads to a rupture of the nuclear envelope when migrating through narrow tissue structures, as in the case of metastasis. DNA would normally ...

Directional cell migration is essential for normal development and healthy physiology of an organism. During cell migration, contractile forces generated by nonmuscle myosin 2 (NM2) filaments ...

In this paper, we propose NeRD (Neural Robot Dynamics), learned robot-specific dynamics models for predicting future states for articulated rigid bodies under contact constraints. NeRD uniquely ...

Not revised: This Reviewed Preprint includes the authors’ original preprint (without revision), an eLife assessment, public reviews, and a provisional response from the authors. Ever since the ...

In this study, the authors offer a theoretical explanation for the emergence of nematic bundles in the actin cortex, carrying implications for the assembly of actomyosin stress fibers. As such, the ...

The development of axons and dendrites (neurites) in a neural circuit relies on the dynamic interplay of cytoskeletal components, especially actin, and the integration of diverse environmental cues.
