Exciting news! On Jeff Holt’s suggestion, May 4th is International #MechanotransductionDay! 🎉 Let's celebrate the incredible process by which cells convert mechanical stimuli into electrochemical signals, influencing everything from hearing to tissue growth.
Jeff Holt (Harvard Med) wrote to me suggesting we declare today International Mechanotransduction Day! I love the idea! May the 4th be with you. #StarWarsDay #touch #hearing

The hardest part about attending #bps2024 while recovering from long covid was having the discipline to step away from my favorite conference for a few hours each day to rest a bit. Apologies to friends and colleagues whose presentations I missed & whom I missed catching up with!
