Excited to share our paper out in Developmental Cell today. A colab with Scialdone Scialdone Lab & CellSig_Lab labs. Study led by S Thowfeequ Shifaan Thowfeequ & J Fiorentino–a molecular characterisation of one of the most important cell migration events during development. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…


Very happy to share our paper looking at how the head-tail axis is established in mouse embryos Developmental Cell : sciencedirect.com/science/articl… A great collaboration with the Srinivas lab Srinivas Research Group , led by Shifaan Thowfeequ Shifaan Thowfeequ and Jonathan Fiorentino

Delighted to share our latest paper in Developmental Cell characterising the molecular underpinnings of Anterior Visceral Endoderm migration - the key event laying down the anatomical foundation of the body during embryonic development.

A new paper published in Developmental Cell unravels the molecular mechanisms underlying a key event which lays down the anatomical foundation of the body Srinivas Research Group Scialdone Lab Shifaan Thowfeequ dpag.ox.ac.uk/news/new-paper…

#HelmholtzMunich Scialdone Lab & University of Oxford have deciphered molecular mechanisms behind a key event shaping our body's structure. The study focuses on the anterior visceral endoderm (#AVE) & its vital role in establishing the head-tail axis in mammals. t1p.de/j1q60

Is evolution predictable or highly contingent? This new Royal Society Publishing paper explains why life here & elsewhere might be universal regarding its logic, from molecular information & cells to viruses &ecosystems.

Happy to see this was published yesterday! It was great working on this with Shankar and Shifaan Thowfeequ. And thank you to the great editorial team at Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology.

Nice to see our latest review published in Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology today – a collaborative exploration of mammalian extraembryonic development with Courtney Hanna for an invaluable epigenetic focus. Srinivas Research Group x.com/NatRevMCB/stat…

Excited to share my work Riley Research Group, out today Nature Cardiovascular Research: nature.com/articles/s4416… Using imaging, scRNAseq & computational modelling , we find that the neonatal cardiac conduction system can regenerate & demonstrate how MI-induced damage elicits arrhythmogenesis 🫀⚡️ 🧵[1/n]

Very happy to share our work on lymphatic endothelial cell specification, which was published in Nature Cardiovascular Research this week.

DPAG's Stone Group publishes new research in Nature Cardiovascular Research on the cellular mechanisms underpinning the formation of lymphatic endothelial cells oliver stone, Dave Grainger, Irina Lupu Read the paper nature.com/articles/s4416…
