So cool to have this awesome meeting right where I work! 😊 #cellbio #devbio
This video by @acapellascience.bsky.social has a cult following in #DevBio circles. It is just to perfect and the kind of content that is so important with science under attack www.youtube.com/watch?v=ydqR...
Got to play around with Holotomographic imaging of muscle cells yesterday via the @uclastemcell.bsky.social imaging core and the results are pretty spectacular 🤩 You can see everything from mitochrondria to lamellipodia to macropinocytosis…with no labels!
🧵1/6 Excited to share that our new STAR Protocols paper is out! 🧬✨
We describe an improved protocol for culturing mouse fetal gonads ex vivo using 3D-printable molds. 🐭🧫

Recently back from an amazing #Herping trip to #Albania and managed to see Europes smallest and rarest Viper - the Greek Meadow Viper (Vipera graeca), lots of careful searching at 1900 metres resulted in finding a beautiful, sub-adult female
Please help us to promote these nice photos and the EMBO Developmental Biology course (deadline 30 July)

Thrilled to start 2026 with our latest preprint, in which we dive into a dedicated forward-walking circuit in the fly brain: doi.org/10.64898/202.... This effort was spearheaded by the fantastic @chrisjdallmann.bsky.social with help from a bunch of talented people in the lab.
in the starting blocks ... Excited to open the meeting today!

🤔🧫How do cells within a tissue move/differentiate with such remarkable precision, in the right place and right time?
👨🔬The Barriga group @eliasbarrigalab.bsky.social explores the biophysical mechanisms that coordinate morphogenesis in development + regeneration

How does the brain control locomotion? In our new preprint, we uncover a brain circuit in Drosophila that controls forward walking independently of turning. This dedicated locomotor circuit enables flexible motor control and might reflect a shared principle across species. doi.org/10.64898/202...
