(1/3) We are excited to announce the launch of The Forest of Biologists, a new #biodiversity initiative that celebrates the contributions of the biological community to our journals Development, J Cell Science, J_Exp_Biol, @DMM_journal and Biology Open. #forestofbiologists

Many thanks to Development and the selection committee for this exciting opportunity!!

Please spread the word! We are recruiting a partner in crime (a.k.a. postdoc) to drive forward our research program on species-specific developmental rates. Check out the lab website or reach out to me directly for more information: diazcuadroslab.org

Excited to share a preprint of my thesis work!!! Many thanks to amazing collaborators Andrei Zakharov, ShenoyLab, Nidhi Bhutani, Alex Dunn and Youngbin Lim. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

hello world! new results (with jared toettcher): tinyurl.com/3595banh Stem cells can self-organize morphogenesis in vitro w/o spatial patterning cues. But how? We programmed cells to record their signaling histories to map symmetry breaking during gastruloid morphogenesis (1/n)

I, for one, am not so interested in who is “first” but which models can provide the most insight. Let’s move beyond describing structures and towards proving to the wider world that our research is high-quality and VALUABLE to researchers & society. Let’s play the long game (3/3)

What a beautiful tour de force!! Congratulations Tyler, looking forward to reading it!!

So cool!! Congratulations Vasudha!!

Now out in Nature Communications! 🤩 "Plakoglobin is a mechanoresponsive regulator of naive pluripotency" I can't express how excited I am to see it published! I think I now have more questions than answers, but I guess that's good when doing science! 😇 nature.com/articles/s4146…

Pathway to Independence – an interview with Yuchuan Miao In this interview, we caught up with Yuchuan Miao over Zoom to find out more about his research background, his hopes for Development's PI Fellow programme and his future research questions: journals.biologists.com/dev/article/15…

Excited to share our paper in Developmental Cell on tracking brown fat adipogenesis in mouse and using human pluripotent stem cells to recapitulate the development in vitro! Big thanks to all the contributors and collaborators in and out of the twitterverse cell.com/developmental-…

It's great to see this perspective by me and my fellow Development Pathway to Independence Fellows out. We discuss our take on the future of developmental biology or, in my case, "The evolutionary origins of animal development" journals.biologists.com/dev/article/15…

We've also published interviews with each PI Fellow to learn more about their background and the future of their research as they set up their own lab: journals.biologists.com/dev/pages/pife… Priti Agarwal Clotilde Cadart LFort James Gahan Leah Greenspan Thomas Juan PolinaKameneva Yuchuan Miao

We are delighted to announce the next call for applications for our 'Pathway to Independence' programme - aimed at supporting postdocs going on the job market. Full details can be found at journals.biologists.com/dev/pages/pi-p…. Application deadline 31 January 2024.

Alex Schier and I are super happy to share this review for the 50th Cell. We really enjoyed working on it and we hope you will share our excitement for developmental biology: from pattern formation, self organisation and human development! cell.com/cell/abstract/…

Our July issue is live! 🌞⛱️🕶️ This month's cover was inspired by our Review on somitogenesis by Yuchuan Miao and Olivier Pourquie (Harvard Medical School) - the parallel somites reminded us of seats on a plane ✈️ Find the article here: go.nature.com/45GiBYd

This month, Development has published interviews with all our 2024 PI fellows - a fantastic set of postdocs going on the job market this year. You can find out more about them all via this page: journals.biologists.com/dev/pages/pife…. Do take a look if you're hiring!
