If you are a postdoctoral fellow and a @SocDevBio member, don't miss this chance to showcase your research Worldwide!
#DevBio #Postdocs! Abstracts are being accepted for speakers in the 2025-2026 Ethel Browne Harvey Postdoctoral Seminar Series. SDB postdoctoral members are eligible to apply. Deadline: August 1. #SDBPostdocSeminar bit.ly/3x1ptgb
Good website to follow the effects of BBB on NIH-funded research, including on local economy. Federal Health Research Cuts scienceimpacts.org
YES! _Especially_ now as we come to understand the importance of mechanotransduction for regulation of gene expression & metabolism! It’s virtually impossible to replicate the mechanobiological environment of embryos or tissues.
The complexity of living systems cannot be fully recapitulated by in vitro or computational approaches alone. While advances in non-animal model technologies offer complementary tools, they lack the full physiological and developmental context of a living organism. 💯
new guidance for non-animal NOFO: "all new Notices of Funding Opportunity that relate to animal model systems (NOFOs) must now also support human-focused approaches such as clinical trials, real world data, or new approach methods (NAMs)"
It is absolutely crazy to think we no longer need model organism research. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
Such an experience for @SocDevBio #ChooseDevelopment! Fellows! Thank you to @MBLScience #Embryology for such an opportunity for the Fellows. 🤩
Jacob Gray @michiganstateu is spending this week @MBLScience Embryology course as a @SocDevBio Choose Development fellow to learn about cephalopods 🐙🦑🪼, cnidarians, planaria, & ctenophores. Here w/MBL Director & Course Directors.
That’s a wrap for the chick/mouse (&lizard) module @MBLScience Embryology course. @SocDevBio
🧠⚡️Electroporated and glowing! This E17.5 mouse cortex shows GFP-labeled cells (green), EdU+ proliferating cells (red), and nuclei (DAPI, blue). Image taken by @agnihotrinitin 🔬 #FluorescenceFriday
Go, Embryo! Axolotl! Happy 4th! @MBLScience, @SocDevBio
