🚨Why can’t mammals regenerate legs or arms like frog tadpoles or salamanders? Our preprint tackles (part of) this BIG question with surprising findings about oxygen sensing 🔗biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Happy New Year, everyone! 🎉 🐭 vs 🐸 #evodevo #regenerative #cellbio 🧵👇
This Sp9 staining ROCs 😍 (Pun very much intended — for 🐸 regen aficionados.)
With HCR™ Pro, we’re redefining what’s possible for RNA detection – delivering ultra-sensitive detection ideal for low-abundance targets or highly autofluorescent samples. In this case study, Dr. Douglas Houston from the University of Iowa used HCR™ Pro to reveal clear…
Very happy to share it’s online! If you read the bioRxiv, updates include tracking cells and tissue flow, Histo4i time course (69 Abs) comparing spatial patterning and a new WLS KO ipsc line establishing mechanosensing via YAP-WNT caudalizes organoids nature.com/articles/s4158…
I am very excited to share my postdoc work “Morphodynamics of human early brain organoid development”, where we take a multiscale morphodynamic view of human brain organoid development. In collaboration with @GillesGut @GrayCampLab @TreutleinLab biorxiv.org/content/10.110…🧵(1/9)
A nice advance for imaging-based spatially resolved transcriptomics from the Weigert and La Manno labs. Spotiflow uses deep learning for subpixel-accurate spot detection in diverse 2D and 3D images. nature.com/articles/s4159…
Very honored and grateful to be named one of the 100 extraordinary biologists!It’s been a joy working with the @Co_Biologists team, contributing to the community, and having the opportunity to share my science.❤️
Our first extraordinary biologist this week is Meng Zhu, former preLighter and Development presents… feature, who has been instrumental in the working group of Chinese early-career researchers consulting our WeChat channel. #100biologists
🚨 Paper Alert 🚨 Absolutely delighted to share our last paper on "spatial mechano-transcriptomics" in @naturemethods👇!! nature.com/articles/s4159…
Hiring alert! @SRsrivatsan @fredhutch and I @HHMIJanelia are looking for a joint postdoc to combine single-cell omics and ex utero embryogenesis. Please retweet! If you are interested, DM us or send an email to [email protected] ; [email protected]
Still an MPI für *Entwicklungsbiologie* kid at heart, but now calling FML home! #LabMove #NewNameSameGene
Modern tools challenge long-held assumptions - interesting findings on local oxygen levels during fracture repair! 👇 The plot thickens with the entry of 🩸 :)
I am thrilled to release our latest preprint from @AmiLang_Science, out today @biorxivpreprint! Local erythropoiesis directs oxygen availability in bone fracture repair biorxiv.org/content/10.110… A paper thread:
