Job alert! 📣 I’m looking for a research assistant to join my new team @idrm.ox.ac.uk
Were using #zebrafish to understand gene-environment interactions that shape the heart 🫀generate natural diversity 🐸🐭 and contribute to congenital defects ❤️🩹
Full info below, and please share! 🫶🏻

Don't miss this online session on Monday! I'll be talking about our lab's new directions on oxygen sensing in heart plasticity and diversity 🫀🌬️ and @zoenahas.bsky.social will tell us all about shoot branch architectures in plants 🌱 Looking forward to it!
Hot off the press!!! Proudly presenting our lab's new review on how do cells communicate to control organ size :) We focus specially on dynamic connections that operate at different timescales to regulate organ growth and morphogenesis. #devbio #SizeandShape www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
Today in Oxford - the Jenkinson DevBio symposium, showcasing exciting #DevBio science from all around the UK! What a lineup 🎉

We developed image analysis tools to capture the nematic orientation field of 3D tissue surfaces. Tested on epithelial aggregates, zebrafish hearts, myoblasts on spheres & micro-vessels, we combined soft matter physics with exp. biology.

Next Monday, 15 June at 2:30 PM (UK time), we are excited to welcome Zoe Nahas @zoenahas.bsky.social and Toby Andrews @tobyandrews.bsky.social!
This seminar will be online and will be the last one of the term. We hope to see many of you there and finish the term with great science and discussion!
