🚨Can embryos regenerate their tails? A question I had.
With support from @biologists.bsky.social, Val Wilson, Elly Tanaka and Wouter🙏, I visited Vienna to start by cutting axolotl embryo tail buds.
The answer: Not always!😮...Sparking a fun and exciting collaboration that is only the beginning.

🚨 New preprint 🚨
Massive shoutout to first author @abinagui.bsky.social !!!
The common view is that regenerative competence declines with age. We challenge this idea by showing that axolotl tail regenerative competence is emerges during a defined embryonic window. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
