🚨 Last day to submit to the SDB Art Show ‼️ SDB will host the show at the 85th Annual Meeting in Las Vegas 🎰 Open to meeting attendees: 2D & 3D in "Research Images as Art" or "Art Inspired by Research" 🎨✨ More information: www.sdbonline.org/2026mtg_art_...

What can we learn from butterflies? 🦋 Butterfly models help us uncover how genes shape form, revealing the mechanisms behind pattern formation, cell fate decisions, and morphogenesis. #ModelMonday #DevBio #EvoDevo 🧬 📸 Photo by Ignacio Vazquez on Pexels

✨ Excited to host Karen Sears (UCLA) at #2026SDB in Las Vegas! Karen has introduced diverse species including bats and opossums into the study of comparative embryology to understand the rules that govern mammalian development and its evolution. 🔬 #devbio

✨Rare model organisms can teach us how to build a body differently. In snail embryos blastomeres can be as big as the rest of the embryo! 🐌Phrontis vibex blastula stained for tubulin (gray), phalloidin (blue) and histone (magenta). 🔬 #ModelMonday #DevBio 📸: Clemens Cabernard

✨ Excited to host invited speaker Joyce Onyenedum at #2026SDB in Las Vegas! 🎰🃏 Her research explores plant diversity and the mechanisms underlying variation in plant traits. 🌱 🧬✨ #devbio

🚨 Deadline extended till June 10th‼️

✨ Excited to host invited speaker Nipam H. Patel at #2026SDB in Las Vegas! 🎰🃏 His research explores the evolution of developmental mechanisms and how diverse body plans, patterns, and colors arise across species. 🧬✨ #devbio

✨ Looking forward to hearing from Paul Trainor at #2026SDB in Las Vegas! Paul’s work at the Stowers Institute on neural crest development in mammals (sometimes fish and chameleons) has helped bring attention to understudied craniofacial conditions. 🔬 #devbio #Stowers25
