  • "ARVCF catenin controls force production during vertebrate convergent extension" (2022, Developmental Cell)
  • "Mechanical heterogeneity along single cell-cell junctions is driven by lateral clustering of cadherins during vertebrate axis elongation" (2020, bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory))

Other papers co-authored with different scientists included studies on biomechanical integration of cell crawling and junction contraction (2022, Cell Reports) and collective cell migration regulated during mammary epithelial bifurcation (2023, Journal of Cell Science).

Frequently collaborating scholars in their work included John B. Wallingford, Shinuo Weng, D. Thirumalai, Sena Sarıkaya, and additional contributions from John B. Wallingford. Their collaborations produced multiple outputs, highlighting teamwork in advancing research in related fields.

The primary publication venues for the scientist were:

  • bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)
  • SSRN Electronic Journal
  • Cell Reports
  • eLife
  • Developmental Cell
