Our work demonstrating “how a tissue-like soft environment transforms the structural mechanics of axonal growth cone to be a battering ram” has been published in Cell Reports~

Award-winner Zhu, first author Chen Chen, and we celebrate the good time in a steak house. Kai, Li-yuan, and Chih-Yu are our 2022 Summer Interns~~

We found that growth cones of 0.1 kPa neurons exhibit a highly coordinated T-zone activity, a mechanism distinct from the one observed on conventional glass coverslips.

我們利用水膠平台系統，解開當神經軸突的生長錐生長在軟組織環境中時，如何變身成為Cajal眼中有助於長軸突前進/施力的攻城錘（battering ram) 型態。

Zhu is the youngest member of 8C01; joined 8C01 at the end of the Year 2020 when he was a high school freshman (10 grade). Ever since then, we have watched his growth, his persistence, and development of tasks/sense of good science every day. It’s always a joy to work with young talents like Zhu. We are proud of him! Congratulation, Zhu, Keep up with the excellent work ~~
