The EMBO Dev Biol course in Quintay, Chile, dives into zebrafish embryos under the expert guidance of Corinne Houart (King's College London) & Leonardo E. Valdivia (Center for Integrative Biology U. Mayor). Students are hands-on with exciting experiments, exploring the wonders of development! #DevBiol #Zebrafish


Spectacular finale of the Drosophila lab at EMBO #DevBiol course in Quintay, Chile! Students shared insights, supported by stunning images they captured—guided by Nipam Patel, Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) Director, and supported by Mathew Parent from Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL). #ScienceEducation
