Having a great time at #EMBOevoAnimalGenomes in Sevilla 🤣 Time to get back to the afternoon session!

Everything comes to and end and the #EMBOevoAnimalGenomes is no exception 😭 A final session on “Synthetic biology approaches to model evolution” and time to say farewell. 👏🏻Thanks to all participants. Maybe we will see each other again? Who knows… 😉

🚨 We are recruiting! 🙏Please RT 📢 We offer a FPI fellowship to work on enhancer-promoter 3D communication at Centro Andaluz de Biología del Desarrollo 📨 Send your application to [email protected]

Are animals of different sizes made of the same cell types? (or are there size-specific cell types?) This is the question that we address in our recent bioRxiv, using planarians. Here’s an X-plainer (formerly known as tweetorial) of our results. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

🚨 🚨 We are looking for TWO computational biologists 💻🧬, one based in Barcelona and one in Berlin, to work on single-cell and spatial long-read transcriptomics. Barcelona: recruitment.crg.eu/content/jobs/p… Berlin: mdc-berlin.de/career/jobs/po… Please RT! 🙏 More details below. 👇

Fresh out of the press Developmental Cell! w Z. Smith Yale Department of Genetics and B. Law & M. Chan Princeton University we engineer a high-content molecular recorder to reconstruct thousands of cell lineages during embryoid morphogenesis. #MeissnerLab MPI for Molecular Genetics.

🥼 Open PhD position! 🌞🌞We are recruiting new lab members in the beautiful Seville 🗣️Please RT! 👋Contact me if you are interested: [email protected]

💪🏻We broke the world record on number of theses defended in the same day. A memorable day and a reunion of past lab members Max Delbrück Center MDC-BIMSB 🎉 Two new Ph.Ds awarded. Well done Vicky Chung Irene Mota We are all proud of you

The final version of our article is available We report a novel role for microRNAs in sex determination. A nice collaboration with Barrionuevo and Jimenez lab, and led by Alicia Hurtado Irene Mota Miguel Lao 👏👏 Max Delbrück Center MDC-BIMSB Centro Andaluz de Biología del Desarrollo nature.com/articles/s4146…

I am very pleased to share that our latest research🧑‍🔬 from PomboLab, about allele-specific chromatin structure 🧬, now live on bioRxiv. Shout out to Prof Ana Pombo, Alexander Kukalev, Rieke Kempfer and the rest of the team for this remarkable work of science. ↓ Short thread below ↓

How do embryos and ESCs safeguard pluripotency throughout a state of dormancy? A great collaborative effort of the Aydan Bulut-Karslioglu -lab & the MPI for Molecular Genetics involving Helene Kretzmer Abhishek Sampath Kumar Tugce Aktas Vera van der Weijden & many more. nature.com/articles/s4159…

🥳 Enhorabuena al equipo del #CABD y de Universidad Granada por el descubrimiento por primera vez del papel determinante que juegan los microARNs en el desarrollo del sexo en mamíferos! 🐭 El estudio se ha publicado en Nature Communications MDC-BIMSB Max Delbrück Center Fany Martinez Real Irene Mota Miguel Lao

🏆 Congratulations to @mamartl Elena Rivas Marín & Rafael Domínguez Acemel from #CABD! We are happy to announce that their proposals were selected for funding through the highly competitive 'Ramón y Cajal' program! Way to go!

It’s finally out! 🥳 Today @cellcellpress we report non-mineral fossils of ancient chromosomes in skin from a woolly mammoth that died in Siberia, 52,000 years ago. 🦣💨 Don’t miss our thread below! 🧵👇🏽

😀 I am deeply honored to receive the "Jose Luis Gómez Skarmeta" award, named after one of the scientists I admired most. Thanks for the SEBD and the committee for considering worthy of such a prestigious award (1/n)

🚨Preprint alert🚨 Excited to share the #preprint version of our work MundlosLab ! Curious about how a transposable element (TE) insertion can cause developmental phenotypes? 🧬🦠🐁 Check the 🧵 below and the full version on BiorXiv: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

🚨🚨🚨 Very excited to share our new preprint on the cis-regulatory determinants of #microexon #splicing regulation by SRRM3/4: biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… Work led by Sophie Bonnal, with Simon Bajew & Rosa Martínez Corral. UPF Medicine and Life Sciences, Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG). European Research Council (ERC). Short teaser👇1/7

Excited to have our work out now in Orli Bahcall. @BartDeplancke nature.com/articles/s4158… Few important changes compared to the preprint! see 🧵 below

It's a great pleasure that our study about the regulatory role of the Shox2 gene desert – a non-coding genomic region with multiple critical functions in embryogenesis - is finally out! #unibern #UCalgary #BerkeleyLab nature.com/articles/s4146… #devbio #enhancers #Shox2 #GeneDeserts

Amazing work!! Super cool study 🦇🦇 ! Congrats Mark Schindler, Christian Feregrino and everyone else ☺️
