We leverage optogenetics, mechanical perturbations, and modeling to reveal a mechanochemical long-range mutual activation between front and back polarity programs that complements their known local mutual inhibition. Rac-driven protrusions increase membrane tension, triggering mTORC2-dependent Rho activation at the opposite side of the cell. Conversely, Rho-mediated contractility induces cortical-flow regulation of phosphoinositide signaling, promoting distal Rac activation. Our findings demonstrate how the actin cortex and plasma membrane interact as an integrated mechanochemical system for long-range Rac-Rho patterning. Efficient migration also requires polarized organization of the cell interior, with organelle positioning increasingly recognized as a key determinant of cell movement. Yet how this organization is established remains unclear. Building on our mechanochemical framework, we now investigate how actin-generated forces position organelles during migration and how disruption of this intracellular organization contributes to disease.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nWebsite of the De Belly lab: <a href=\"https://cri.utsw.edu/faculty/henry-de-belly/\">https://cri.utsw.edu/faculty/henry-de-belly/</a><br>\r\n<br>\r\nThis is part of the Physics of Living Systems monthly symposium: <a href=\"https://pols.epfl.ch/physics-of-living-systems-seminars/monthly-symposium/\">https://pols.epfl.ch/physics-of-living-systems-seminars/monthly-symposium/</a></p>", "image_description": "Dr. Henry De Belly, UTSW", "creation_date": "2026-08-19T11:02:03", "last_modification_date": "2026-08-19T12:10:32", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "SV 1717", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==SV%201717", "url_online_room": "https://epfl.zoom.us/j/7467019292", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "Dr. Henry De Belly, UTSW", "organizer": "Dr. Juan Manuel García-Arcos, EPFL", "contact": "Dr. Juan Manuel García-Arcos, [email protected]", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Public averti", "en_label": "Informed public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "Mechanobiology, cell signalling, cell migration, mTORC2, Rho GTPases, cellular organization", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/121471/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/9/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/111/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 72726, "title": "Bad neighbours, antisocial behaviour, and party animals; the secret life of microbes", "slug": "bad-neighbours-antisocial-behaviour-and-party-anim", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/bad-neighbours-antisocial-behaviour-and-party-anim", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33944/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33944/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33944/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-10-20", "end_date": "2026-10-20", "start_time": "12:15:00", "end_time": "13:15:00", "description": "<p>In this talk, I'll take a look at three \"microbial vignettes\". In the first, I'll examine how the presence of co-habiting microbes profoundly affects the biology of a human pathogen, Pseudomonas aeruginosa. This is important, because in diseased human airways - where P. aeruginosa is an unwelcome, but common inhabitant - the pathogen invariably shares the infection site with a variety of other microbes. It turns out that these microbial neighbours interact with one another and that these interactions are perturbed by the loss of a quorum sensing \"master regulator\" (LasR) in P. aeruginosa. In the second \"short\", I'll talk about how we are now able to manipulate the rate of evolution of the organism, either by \"stepping on the gas pedal\" or by \"slamming on the brakes\". The ability to do this, in an experimentally-controlled manner, is allowing us to access some novel evolutionary trajectories, and to address some truly fundamental biological questions. Finally, I'll take a fresh look at bacterial biofilms and in particular, examine whether the exopolysaccharide \"bioglue\" that holds these structures together might have additional - possibly more important roles. It turns out that it does, and that the exopolysaccharide matrix acts as a \"net\" to selectively sequester secreted proteins, potentially conferring novel functionalities on the biofilm.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nBrief Speaker Bio. <br>\r\nAfter reading for a degree in Biochemistry at the University of Oxford, Martin completed a PhD on bacterial chemotaxis at the Weizmann Institute of Science (Israel), where he was awarded the Wolf Prize for his contributions to the field. Leavuing Israel with a PhD and a [German] wife, he then moved to Toulouse (supported by a long-term EMBO fellowship) where he learned the dark art of x-ray crystallography and solved the structure of a signaling complex involved in bacterial chemotaxis. He then moved back to the UK to take up a post-doctoral position at the University of Cambridge working on quorum sensing in the fascinating plant pathogen, Pectobacterium atrosepticum. There, he developed skills in molecular genetics and demonstrated (for the first time) that quorum sensing molecules bind directly to their cognate LuxR homologs in a range of bacteria. This advance allowed him to secure a Royal Society University Research Fellowship to start his own group - where he learned the hard way that prospective students don't like any project with the word \"plant\" in, and when offered projects on the plant pathogen <em>versus </em>a mammalian pathogen, always went for the latter. Since around 2000, his team's focus has been on understanding better the link between metabolism and virulence in the opportunistic human pathogen, <em>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</em>. He is now Professor of Microbial Physiology and Metabolism at the University of Cambridge.</p>", "image_description": "Welch", "creation_date": "2026-10-01T10:27:10", "last_modification_date": "2026-10-01T10:27:10", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "SV 1717", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==SV%201717", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "<strong>Martin Welch</strong>, University of Cambridge, Department of Biochemistry", "organizer": "Cauã Antunes Westmann", "contact": "[email protected]", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Public averti", "en_label": "Informed public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/122009/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences -

Parallèlement, il s’agit de créer des images qui manifestent la qualité visuelle des formes et des couleurs de ces micro-organismes. Notre rapport à la nature exige l’admiration de sa beauté. Aujourd’hui, des artistes comme Rahel Oberhummer s’engagent dans une double mission : participer activement à des processus scientifiques et créer des images sensibles tout autant que savantes.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Collaborations</strong><br>\r\n<br>\r\nSérie photographique réalisée en collaboration avec l’Institut fédéral de recherches sur la forêt, la neige et le paysage (WSL). Unité : Biodiversité et écologie de la conservation.<br>\r\nDr. Beat Frey, Dr. Joel Rüthi, Dr. Ivano Brunner, Beat Stierli<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Eléments biographiques</strong><br>\r\n<br>\r\nRahel Oberhummer (*1991, Loèche-les-Bains) est diplômée de la HEAD, Genève. Elle a étudié aussi à la Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, Copenhague, à la Hochschule für Kunst und Design de Lucerne et au Billy Blue College of Design à Sydney. Au début de l’année 2026, elle a obtenu une résidence de trois mois à Hanoï, au Vietnam, dans le cadre d’un séjour de recherche soutenu par Pro Helvetia et accueilli par l’espace Exutoire. Elle vit et travaille à Vevey.<br>\r\nLa relation entre les structures sociales humaines et les formes de vie non humaines est au cœur de son approche artistique. Rahel Oberhummer se concentre sur les interactions subtiles entre les humains et l'environnement, avec une attention soutenue pour les écosystèmes dont nous dépendons et que nous mettons pourtant en danger. Des questions se posent, que l'artiste explore à travers une recherche scientifique autant qu’artistique.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<a href=\"https://www.raheloberhummer.ch/\"><strong>>>> Site web de l'artiste Rahel Oberhummer</strong></a><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Vernissage</strong> le jeudi 7 mai 2026 à 18 :30 <br>\r\n<strong>Exposition visible jusqu’au 11 octobre 2026<br>\r\nHall du RLC / entrée libre</strong><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<u>Image</u> :<em> </em>Dioszegia patagonica 001, Pochonia/Metacordyceps chlamydosporia 205, Pseudogymnoascus pannorum 511, Potato Dextrose Agar with sepia ink, 2022.</p>", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-03-16T17:17:43", "last_modification_date": "2026-05-26T15:56:40", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "Hall du Rolex Learning Center", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==RLC%20G1%2094.12", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [], "speaker": "<a href=\"https://www.raheloberhummer.ch/\">Rahel Oberhummer, artiste</a>", "organizer": "Pôle Culture EPFL", "contact": "<a href=\"mailto:[email protected]\">Véronique Mauron Layaz</a>", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 1, "fr_label": "Tout public", "en_label": "General public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/120096/", "category": { "id": 5, "code": "EXPO", "fr_label": "Expositions", "en_label": "Exhibitions", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/22/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/6/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 70762, "title": "Agir sur le stress et l'anxiété: des clés pour le quotidien", "slug": "agir-sur-le-stress-et-l-anxiete-des-cles-pour-le-4", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/agir-sur-le-stress-et-l-anxiete-des-cles-pour-le-4", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32174/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32174/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32174/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-10-07", "end_date": "2026-10-07", "start_time": "09:00:00", "end_time": "17:00:00", "description": "<p>Le stress et l’anxiété font aujourd’hui partie intégrante du quotidien, d’autant plus dans un cadre professionnel.

I will discuss two discoveries that reveal how lysosomes solve these complementary challenges and how their failure creates disease vulnerabilities. First, I will describe Lysosomal Leucine Aminopeptidase (LyLAP), an enzyme specialized to processively degrade the hydrophobic α-helices of transmembrane proteins. LyLAP is highly expressed in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, where its loss causes hydrophobic peptides to accumulate, compromises lysosomal function, and ultimately leads to cancer cell death, revealing a potential vulnerability in tumors with elevated endocytic activity. I will then describe LASER, a damage-responsive protein assembly that couples lysosomal membrane injury to repair. At its core, the oligomeric protein TFG recognizes LC3/GABARAP proteins conjugated to damaged lysosomes and recruits the ESCRT machinery to restore membrane integrity. Neurodegenerative disease-associated mutations in TFG disrupt this process, linking defective lysosomal repair to human disease. Together, these findings reveal lysosomes as dynamic systems that coordinate cargo degradation with membrane surveillance and repair to maintain cellular homeostasis. <br>\r\n<br>\r\nMore about Dr. Aakriti Jain's lab at UTSW: <a href=\"https://aakritijainlab.com/\">https://aakritijainlab.com/</a></p>", "image_description": "Dr. Aakriti Jain", "creation_date": "2026-08-19T11:24:24", "last_modification_date": "2026-09-21T16:54:33", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "SV 1717", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==SV%201717", "url_online_room": "https://epfl.zoom.us/j/7467019292", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "Dr. Aakriti Jain, UTSW", "organizer": "Dr. Juan Manuel García-Arcos", "contact": "Dr. Juan Manuel García-Arcos, [email protected]", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Public averti", "en_label": "Informed public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "ESCRT, Lysosomal repair, organelle dynamics, Lysosomal Leucine Aminopeptidase, transmembrane protein degradation", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/121477/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/9/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/111/?format=api" ] } ] }
