The German Physical Society #DPG just published a book on "Physics - insights and perspectives" (in German, title translated). It summarizes the current states of all fields of physics, including a section on "Physics and life". The PDF can now be downloaded here: physik-erkenntnisse-perspektiven.de

There has been much theory work on competition for limited pools, in particular for F-actin network growth, but quantitative experimental data was rare. This new assay now demonstrates the decisive role of turnover. Also instructive comment by Cristian Suarez and David Kovar doi.org/10.1016/j.cu...

I didn't find a specific mechanotransduction starter pack, so I open one myself😊. There are still a lot of people to be added, but it's late, so please drop me a message or post here to nominate yourself for the Mechanotransduction community. go.bsky.app/2PXf5SC
