Fantastic study showing that mechanosensor YAP1 acts as a molecular "pre-patterner" cue during intestinal regeneration. Congratulations @priscaliberali @EdouardHannezo and the entire team!

A perfect start in the new year! 🌱 Regenerating tissues are just an amazing spatio temporal controlled process! Our new manuscript explores how cell heterogeneity and bistability orchestrate intestinal regeneration 🧵
