Reassembling the dual pipette aspiration team in Krakow! Meeting with CP ⁦Heisenberg Lab⁩ at #EZM2023 and visiting Matt’s new lab at the Max Planck Dioscuri Center at the Jagiellonian University. Amazing that we are all PI now.

The last but definitely not least @2023EZM our PhD student Chia-Teng Chang discusses his work on how BMP gradient regulates gastrulation movements of germ layers in zebrafish. Thanks EZS European Zebrafish Society IZFS Polish Zebrafish Society and Kraków for the fantastic science and interactions 🐟😻

Every trip to ⁦ISTAustria⁩ ends with lots of excitement. Thanks to ⁦Heisenberg Lab⁩ for hosting. Met old friends, gave a talk to engaging crowd, many 1-on-1 meetings with ideas for collaboration, tried new experiments, got cool prelim data. What else can I ask for?

Tsai lab at #SDB2023! Come check out Wyndham's poster on adhesion-based fin patterning (today B166), Chia-Teng Chang's poster on positional information of spinal cord (tomorrow B125), and Madeline Ryan 's talk on Sunday 8:50 am on amazing spinal cord morphogenesis phenotypes!

Can’t be more proud with Maddie’s ⁦Madeline Ryan⁩ fantastic talk at #2023SDB on our work of cadherin function in spinal cord morphogenesis. She is applying for grad school this fall! Please watch out for this rising star!

One of the great joy as a PI is seeing the excitement of your students as they present their works. Thanks to Society for Developmental Biology #2023SDB for providing such a platform, and all who came, listened, and provided feedback to our works. We had a blast and loved the community!

A pattern formation mutant!

I always consider myself an "in vivo cell biologist". And the zebrafish is a beautiful live imaging model to uncover cool cell biological mechanisms in tissue development. Excited about the opportunity to speak to the Cell Biology community here at WashU! Join me today at 1 pm!

Waking up surrounded by beautiful fall foliage in central Missouri as we conclude day 1 of our first lab retreat. Chalk talk with mustache, dinner career chat, poker games, lively Disney themed karaoke. I’m so lucky to work with these smart and fun people! Excited about day 2!!

D2 of lab retreat: chalk talk (with real mustache), describe your dream experiment session, kayaking, hotpot dinner, zebrafish themed jeopardy game hosted by Zebrafish Rock! wizard Madeline Ryan, fire pit chat on lab culture. What an action packed fun day! I love my lab!

Per request of Zebrafish Rock!, more mustache photos from our first ever lab retreat. This is such a fun group exercise. I hope everyone is excited about testing all the new ideas back in lab (I know I am!)

Do you know undergrads interested in working full-time in top-notch Dev Bio or Cell Bio labs for 2 years before applying to PhD? The WashU post-bac program offers immersive research experience and training for academic skills! Now open for application! sites.wustl.edu/devbioregenmed…

Stunning movie of zebrafish spinal cord morphogenesis from our very own Chia-Teng Chang featured on Zebrafish Rock! What a beautiful (and mysterious) process!

Excited to share our new study quantifying the information content of morphogen signaling in the zebrafish spinal cord with the WashU Medicine Genetics community. If you are interested in gene expression noise, tissue patterning, and morphogen signaling, join me this Thursday at noon!

Proud PI moment: your technician is accepted to the graduate school that rejected your application 17 yrs ago. Congrats Madeline Ryan for the offer from BBS at Harvard, making it 7 for 7! We're so excited that you have so many great options for your PhD study! Well-deserved!

We’re very excited to share the first preprint from my lab along with Harry McNamara, @BillZJia, Adam Cohen, and Alex Schier. We describe a set of methods for exerting spatial control over Nodal signaling in zebrafish development. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Now out! I'm beyond thrilled to share our method for dynamically measuring neurulation forces. We hope that our addition to the toolkit will push forward the quantification of living tissue mechanics.
