Excited to share a new review by @kocherlab.bsky.social and me:

Please please please make an axolotl one!
Congratulations Lennart, Ameneh and Nick!
I may have missed those but will happily dig into that as well, thanks for the info! Nonetheless, your editorial is also really well written and digestable so I just had to fan girl over it a bit ☺️
I am absolutely in awe of this editorial laying out the details of the Company of Biologists publishing and financing models. Such a welcome air of transparency that is so rarely seen in any institution, doing wonders for building trust within the community. The CoB team are an absolute role model 🫡
We’re looking for a technician to join our lab in Dresden - help manage the lab and work with us on a cool 'stem cell zoo' comparison projects! 🐁🚶♀️🦏🐒
Apply by May 21!
