Morphogenetic coupling leads to pattern emergence in the pre somitic mesoderm dlvr.it/Rs7f5S

My wife wouldn't let me sneak this into my PhD thesis, so I thought I'd post it here. This is a catalog of various accidental graphs I made - I call it "Adventures in R". Please enjoy my many failures. 1/6

So, my sister asked me what are the five most important books to read for students in your lab, and she was irritated that i didn't have an answer at the ready. (#devbiolwriteclub Rule #4. Read with Intent.) So, here's my first draft of a list:

In our ‘Transitions in development’ series, Kate McDole @MRC_LMB tells Seema Grewal about her early career, the research themes of her lab, and making the best of the pandemic restrictions with her lockdown project.

Very happy to have this one out in Development! How can models of embryo development teach us how mammalian embryos take shape? doi.org/10.1242/dev.19…. First teamstembryo MPI-CBG Dresden Review, together w/ Lenne Lab David Turner Iftach Nachman Vikas Trivedi. #stembryo #gastruloids 🧵 (1/7)

During the first year of the pandemic, I decided to draw and paint embryology for my students. You can see the results here. If you're learning embryology - or just curious about human development - they might be useful. #LockdownEmbryology youtube.com/watch?v=dBw4Nq…

I am thrilled to share that my PhD work is now out in preprint!! 🎉 “ Zebrafish Neuromesodermal Progenitors Undergo a Critical State Transition in vivo” #preprint biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Come join me in a thread 🧵 [1/14]

We have created a list of our favourite science podcasts, but we need your help to complete our collection. Let us know your recommendations and we'll have a listen and add them to our list. thenode.biologists.com/podcasts/

Interested in a PhD studying the evolution of developmental processes? We look at the evolution of complex phenotypes using inter-disciplinary approaches including mathematical modelling, experimental embryology, and microscopy. Reach out if you’d like to discuss! 📸 Shannon Taylor 🏳️‍🌈

Today sees the publication Basic Books of an argument for the central role #cells play in organism building: From the first eukaryotic cell, through the emergence of #animals, the Burgess Shale and #gastrulation to the construction of a human #embryo #CellsRUs #NotInTheGenes.

I’m delighted to share our latest publication from Moris Lab on the derivation of mouse PGC-like cells in gastruloids. Thanks to Chris (Martinez Arias lab, GeneticsCambridge, Abcam) & Jenny (The University of Edinburgh) for their work in Cambridge, which followed us to The Francis Crick Institute! journals.biologists.com/dev/article/do…

And we are carrying on the detective story in Moris Lab now! 🔎 In fact, we are hiring a postdoc to carry this project forward, so please apply if you ❤️ PGCs and want to play with glds🍤 - or spread the word + RT! 🙌 (6/6) jobs.ac.uk/job/DBM422/pos…

Please share with any students who may be eligible! STEM SMART is a free, 17-month programme to support students in raising their attainment at school and develop their confidence to apply to study STEM subjects at top universities.

Things that Darwin hated, a 🧵 To Charles Lyell, 1st Oct 1861 But I am very poorly today & very stupid & hate everybody & everything. One lives only to make blunders.— I am going to write a little Book for Murray on orchids & today I hate them worse than everything

New analysis from the The Royal Society shows just how high UK visa costs for researchers are compared to upfront costs for similar visa routes in 13 other countries. Here, we take a look at how the UK compares to countries in the G7 included in the analysis 🔍⤵️ 1/5

A really fun collaboration with David Turner and Sam Ball in which we utilised AI to answer one of life's burning questions: Is it a rod? Or is it a ring?
