Cover image expansion

Cover: Scanning electron micrograph of the epidermal epithelium of adult zebrafish (Danio rerio). The distinctive labyrinth-like patterns seen on most of the cells are actin micro-ridges that are characteristic of superficial keratinocytes. In response to injury, directed migration of keratinocytes into the wound promotes healing. This process requires keratinocytes to sense and respond to chemical and physical cues in their external environment. In isolated zebrafish keratinocytes, Ca2+ influx is required for polarity and migration, and appears to occur through mechanically activated channels, including several transientreceptorpotential family members such as TRPV1. Moreover, cell motility and intracellular Ca2+ levels are affected by pharmacological agents that target TRPV1, indicating a new role for this channel during cell migration. See article by D. M. Graham et al. (pp 4602–4613).

Introducing FocalPlane’s new Community Manager, Esperanza Agullo-Pascual

We are pleased to welcome Esperanza to the Journal of Cell Science team. The new Community Manager for FocalPlane, Esperanza is joining us from the Microscopy Core at Mount Sinai School of Medicine. Find out more about Esperanza in her introductory post over on FocalPlane.


New funding scheme supports sustainable events

As part of our Sustainable Conferencing Initiative, we are pleased to announce funding for organisers that seek to reduce the environmental footprint of their event. The next deadline to apply for a Scientific Meeting grant is 26 March 2021.


Read & Publish participation continues to grow

"Alongside pre-printing for early documentation of work, such mechanisms are particularly helpful for early-career researchers like me.”

Dr Chris MacDonald (University of York) shares his experience of publishing Open Access as part of our growing Read & Publish initiative. We now have over 150 institutions in 15 countries and four library consortia taking part – find out more and view our full list of participating institutions.


Cell scientist to watch: Romain Levayer

In an interview, Romain Levayer talks about starting his own lab, his love for preprints and his experience of balancing parenting with his research goals.


Live lactating mammary tissue

In a stunning video, Stewart et al. demonstrate warping of the alveolar unit due to basal cell-generated force as part of their recent work investigating roles for mechanically activated ion channels in lactation and involution.
