The aim of our research group is to elucidate the mechanism that underlies the development of the Neural Crest, from induction to migration and differentiation.

Being elected a Fellow of the Royal Society is a tremendous honour. My deepest thanks go to the hundreds of students and postdocs who have passed through my lab over the last 30+ years. They have been the soul of the lab, and this recognition belongs as much to them as it does to me.

Spectacular Developmental Biology Jacques Monod Conference in Roscoff. Thanks to @bardinlab.bsky.social and @lionlchristiaen.bsky.social for putting together such an exciting scientific program. And the setting was incredible too, with a beautiful sunset to end the meeting.

Do you work with #zebrafish? Wanting a budget-friendly housing system capable of thermal control and filtration? Perhaps you just set up your lab and are looking for a short term solution? Then ZebRack designed by the Valdivia lab might pique of your interest?

🚨 How do mechanical forces shape a developing organ?
Our new #ScienceAdvances @science.org study, led by the amazing @cvagenapantoula.bsky.social, reveals a Piezo1-driven hydraulic mechanism, where mechanical cues control cell volume to guide cardiac formation ❤️🐟

So proud to share my paper on collective chemotaxis and force coordination in epithelial and mesenchymal cells, developed in the Mayor Lab and now published in JCB. Deeply grateful for everything I learned from Xenopus NC and the amphibian world, where adaptation is everything🐸

Force coordination distinguishes epithelial and mesenchymal modes of collective #chemotaxis. New study from Jorge Diaz and Roberto Mayor @mayorlab.bsky.social @ucl.ac.uk: rupress.org/jcb/article/...

Mechanical forces shape the developing heart by controlling cell volume through a Piezo1-driven hydraulic mechanism.
Pacheco & @drericabiophd.bsky.social discuss new study from @jorgediazfuentes.bsky.social & @mayorlab.bsky.social (rupress.org/jcb/article/...) which reveals the distinct force-generating mechanisms used by epithelial and mesenchymal cells during collective cell migration rupress.org/jcb/article/...
The 2027 EMBO practical course on #devbio is now open for registration. You'll get work with a lot of different model organisms, from fly to frog and everything in between, plus amazing imaging too. And the city is beautiful, so what I've heard 😌!

A new paper published in @jcb.org by postdoc Jorge Diaz from the Mayor lab at UCL shows that during collective migration, epithelial-like clusters generate traction force mainly through cryptic protrusions at the centre, while mesenchymal clusters do so at their periphery:
