First Person is a series of interviews with the first authors of a selection of papers published in Journal of Cell Science, helping early-career researchers promote themselves alongside their papers. Guillaume Hatte is the first author on 'Tight junctions negatively regulate mechanical forces applied to adherens junctions in vertebrate epithelial tissue', published in Journal of Cell Science. Guillaume completed his PhD in the lab of Claude Prigent at CNRS UMR 6290 and Universite' de Rennes 1, Rennes, France, where he investigated the involvement of tight junctions during epithelial cell cytokinesis in a vertebrate model.
