Excited to see this is out finally! Very insightful findings on mechanisms of GRNs in regulating patterning. Impressed by how the experimental biology and mathematical modelling are integrated. Congratulations to all authors!

Everyone needs to see the birth of a baby octopus at least once in their life, right? x.com/Oceandiversity…

Check out the piece I've written on the Node about our most recent publication in Development with Katherine Exelby Lorena Rubén Pérez-Carrasco Vicki Metzis Peter Sollich James Briscoe. I summarise some of the key findings of this work. Do get in touch with any questions! thenode.biologists.com/precision-by-d…

Human embryo research beyond the primitive streak We argue it’s time to revisit the 14 day limit for in vitro culture & a science led progressive extension of culture period, coupled with public dialogue is the right way forward science.sciencemag.org/content/371/65…

WOW I accidentally deleted my only famous tweet (don't ask...), so if you have already seen this, too bad! Dictyostelium doing its thing. Captured in the Dr. Janis Burkhardt, 5x objective, 1min timepoints, ~17h condensed into 40seconds

Finally, in our 3rd session we will learn about morphogenesis and patterning in different model organisms thanks to the talks from Daisy Vinter @JustinaTYeung @Susie__McLaren and Meng Zhu Don't miss them! 🪰🐟🐭

For any new followers who haven’t already seen this:

Presenting my first 🐟 talk at #IZFC2021 today! Come hear about how I’ve been tinkering with an ERK reporter to improve its specificity in the early embryo Hill Lab

We are happy to announce the winner of our #imagecompetition 🥇 @JustinaTYeung 🎨 Justina wowed us with this beautiful watercolour and we are sure it will make the #YEN2022 poster look stunning youngembryologists.org/uncategorized/… Thanks to everyone who participated!

1/9 Super excited to post this new preprint with friends at Janelia! When and where are memories stored in the brain? Many say they’re stored in hippocampus and then transferred to cortex. Turns out this can be a disaster for generalization. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Theoretical modelling can be very helpful, sometimes essential, to understand the mechanisms controlling embryonic development. Here is a brief overview and perspective on modelling preimplantation development with Edgar Herrera Delgado Cells & Development authors.elsevier.com/a/1dwBU9UUBWBD…

Researchers have found that otter-filled seagrass meadows are much more genetically diverse—and thus resilient—than they are in places without them. fcld.ly/xcphq8t
