📢 #Preprint alert! 📢
In our lab's latest work, Afnan explores early patterning in the human forebrain using some really cool techniques.
Make sure to check it out!
A ‘tour de force’! First description of human early telencephalon patterning & signalling centre dynamics, coupling transcriptomics & 4D gene expression imaging.
➡️ Human forebrain is distinct from mouse as soon at anterior neural plate closes. First @crick.ac.uk paper from @houartlab.bsky.social
At the @bsdb.bsky.social conference, Corinne introduced the Marie Johansson Prize to honour our late, brilliant colleague. The award aims to celebrate outstanding early-career researchers. Huge congrats to @giulia-boezio.bsky.social for the award and a stellar presentation of your postdoc research!
We're so proud of our very own Richard for being awarded this fellowship! Onwards and upwards!
Can’t be happier seeing Richard starting this. His original angle to an old problem ( 😉) has great potential for success.
Fascinating to see how findings in dev. neuro. leads to insights in age-related degenerative disorders!

What a day! Congrats to @danafd.bsky.social for great achievement. Big thanks to Sylvie Retaux & @jamesasharpe.bsky.social for very useful examination of thesis.
Absolutely loved joint supervision w. Zena! Perfect @crick.ac.uk & @kingsioppn.bsky.social combo
Dana’s day had a stiff competition 😉😉😉
I illustrated my way through the @bsdb.bsky.social Spring Meeting a couple weeks ago - here's my illustrated summary of the conference! I sketched (almost) all the speakers and glimpses of the science that made it such a great few days.

Excited to share our new #preprint uncovering how early human forebrain is patterned.
Compared to mouse, human dorsoventral and anteroposterior telencephalon patterning is strikingly delayed, which is correlated with SHH and FGF signalling differences.

🚨Meet the latest early career researchers awarded Race Against Dementia Fellowships🚨
These rising stars are challenging old ideas and driving bold new approaches to speed up progress @RichardTaylor @sorayam.bsky.social @HelenRowland

Couldn’t be prouder of the first PhD graduate of the lab, super congrats @danafd.bsky.social 🙌🎓🌟. Such a pleasure to supervise you together with @cohouart.bsky.social @houartlab.bsky.social, the learning journey never ends 😌. Huge thanks to @jamesasharpe.bsky.social and Sylvie Retaux for examining 💥
