Finally research is considering the functional/ anatomical complexity of the brain.
It's not about regions, but how circuits function dynamically.

The European Society for Evolutionary Developmental Biology is delighted to welcome you to the 10th biennial meeting, to be held at the University of Glasgow from June 9th - 12th in 2026.
I am genuinely humbled by the kind words from the first readers of my book!
The ๐ is fully #openaccess, made possible by the generosity of libraries worldwide and @mitpress.bsky.social's D2O program: direct.mit.edu/books/oa-mon...
Please help spread the word!

โ @nicolettapetridou.bsky.social & co report a feedback loop between Nodal signaling and tissue phase transitions in zebrafish #embryos. Nodal alters adhesion, triggering tissue rigidification and reduced porosity, which limits its diffusion and speeds up Lefty expression.

๐จ Why canโt mammals regenerate limbs like frog tadpoles or salamanders?
In our new paper in @science.org , we show that species-specific oxygen sensing acts as a gatekeeper for initiating limb regeneration ๐ญ๐ธ

A study in @nature.com shows that while complex traits are polygenic in population at large, they have distinct architecture at tails, where rare variants of large effect act as key drivers. Not a surprising finding but neat to see it demonstrated in large UK Biobank cohort across traits & methods.๐งช

Why mammals cannot regenerate limbs like amphibians do presents a long-standing puzzle in biology. To uncover the underlying differences, we compared amputation responses of embryonic mouse (Mus musculus) and Xenopus laevis tadpole limbs. Lowering ...
