In their new review – published in Trends Cell Biology – Susanne vd Brink and Alexander van Oudenaarden discuss the current status of the gastruloids field: what has already been achieved with this new model system, and what challenges lie ahead? hubrecht.eu/review-gastrul…

We have two fully-funded #PhDpositions in our lab! Would you like to use in vitro systems to unveil gene interactions during cell-fate commitment? Join our team! We combine scRNAseq, molecular recorders and systems biology. You can read more here: alemany-lab.com

Highly recommended: amazing science and brilliant mentorship, in Leiden!!!

It's my pleasure to organise the ISSCR Digital Series: Spatial Transcriptomics: From Methods to Insights Thank you brilliant panellists & mods, & my amazing co-pilot Jan-Philipp Junker for what will be an insightful series! Part 1 starts Mon 4 April🎉 isscr.org/meetings-event…

Excited to share the latest preprint from our lab on reconstituting human somitogenesis in vitro! biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Check it out, spread the word and enjoy this video of human PSC-derived somites forming in a dish.

🧬 *Exciting Announcement*🧬 We have a couple fab new opportunities in the lab, including #Postdoc and #PhD openings! 🤩 Do send me an email if you’re interested and send/RT if you know anyone awesome who should apply! 🙏

1/3 OTD 10 years ago the term #gastruloid was coined to refer to the structures that Embryonic Stem Cells form when they are subject to a specific protocol that combined observations from three ms bit.ly/3WcUagE , bit.ly/3oahkr6 and bit.ly/3o4S0Tq.

Thread 1. #Gastruloids are one of a collection of #Stembryo models that have emerged over the last few years & are transforming the way we do mammalian #DevBio through a combination of genetics, experimental embryology and cell biology bit.ly/3BxQ9Kc

Thread 2 #gastruloids have still much to prove as an experimental system but over the last year a number of mss have highlighted their potential as a new model for #DevBio, specifically mammalian DevBio . I highlight a few here.

Please share: we are looking for a student for a funded MSc internship/post-MSc training, 6 months extendable for up to one year, to work with us on blood 3D gastruloids! Anna Bigas lab, Hospital del Mar Research Institute Barcelona. See poster for details and contact information

Two days left to apply for a funded internship position in the Anna Bigas lab, to study blood development with gastruloids (embryonic organoids)!

Creating blood stem cells using embryo models 🧫🩸 We talk to Susanne vd Brink (HMar Research Institute)about her research with embryo models and her involvement in the ethical and regulatory aspects of this pioneering technique. 🔗 ellipse.prbb.org/creating-blood…
