Imaging spotlight: linking mechanical forces and the Golgi

Posted by , on 22 September 2026

In this Imaging spotlight, Felix Campelo, Stéphanie Miserey and Jean-Baptiste Manneville highlight the key findings from their research asking whether the Golgi apparatus can sense and respond to mechanical forces. They talk about the importance of selecting the correct microscope for your question rather than assuming that the most sophisticated microscopy is best, as well

JCS snapshot - Live imaging of epithelial phagocyte differentiation in the Drosophila ovary reveals transient and novel behaviours

Posted by , on 11 August 2026

In our latest JCS snapshot we hear from Caique Almeida Machado Costa, who, together with Wu-Min Deng and team, used time-lapse imaging to uncover dynamic behaviours during epithelial-to-phagocyte differentiation, including migration, delamination, long-range target capture and cell engulfment. In this snapshot, Cai take us through the key findings from their research.
