A droplet microfluidics approach to stably trap and phenotype individual micron-sized algae reveals their distinct but stereotyped movement patterns and how they respond in real time to local environmental cues, including novel boundary circling behaviour under strong confinement.

Intersectional genetic tools are used for selective control of enteroendocrine cell subtypes in vivo, revealing their differential roles in gut physiology and feeding behavior.

Spatial variations of transcription factor expression regulate the choice of progenitors to stay in their niche or to migrate into neural and mesodermal tissues.

Orai1 channels activate intermittently in motile T cells, generating calcium transients, detected by a novel genetically encoded indicator and inducing pauses that favor antigen scanning.

Motile interstitial T cells in live zebrafish access a broad range of length-scales due to long-lived cell-intrinsic variation in speed, and a coupling between speed and directional persistence.

Toxoplasma gondii formins have several non-overlapping roles including generating an apico-basal flux of F-actin that is controlled by phosphorylation and methylation and is essential for motility.

Theoretical predictions and experiments on multicellular aggregates indicate that the extracellular matrix acts as a mechanical sensor, which regulates cell proliferation and migration in a three-dimensional environment.

First identification of the molecular determinants driving contact-dependent predation in Myxococcus..

A lipid mediator lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) derived from fibroblastic reticular cells regulates T-cell movement through the densely packed reticular network in lymph nodes in a manner dependent on the LPA receptor LPA₂-ROCK-myosin II.

A novel bacterial protease activated by a eukaryote-specific factor attacks a host protein involved in cytoskeleton organization to inhibit cell migration during Legionella pneumophila infection.
