A PARTAGER SVP Grand nouvelle: @UMontreal lancé un programme de maîtrise en embryologie et développement. Ce programme en français sera particulièrement intéressant pour toute personne envisageant une carrière dans le domaine de la fertilité. Voir ci-dessous

At @srf_societyuk #srf #fertility2025 in Liverpool. Hoping there won’t be an emergency however. Door positioning does not fill me with confidence.

RETWEET PLEASE Les inscriptions sont maintenant ouvertes pour le cours d'études supérieures en embryologie et développement de l'UdeM, qui débutera en 2025. Cliquez ici pour plus d'informations pathologie.umontreal.ca/etudes/cycles-…

Needlessly deploy all latest techniques VS a properly designed experiment


Boom! Still got it 😂 @ReprodJournal @SRF_Repro #SSR2024

Pierre Masson, chair of the depart of pathology at Montreal (1927-1954), inventor of novel stains –Masson trichrome, silver stain, keen observer of tumors and cell of origin: the glomus tumor, nevi, carcinoid tumor, remembered as a modest man yet a giant of surgical pathology.
Congratulations to Inwon Lee for some great observations and beautiful movies. When investigating how mitochondria move in eggs and embryos, we found Trak2 caused aggregation into 'mitoballs'. Nuclear position, shape and function were all disrupted and embryos failed to develop.
A study studying cell organisation led by Inwon Lee, @DeepakMonash, @jcarrollmonash in @PNASNews reveals that disruption of #mitochondrial distribution by forming 'mitoballs' displaces nuclei & disrupts early #embryo development: bit.ly/4cIuQG6 10.1073/pnas.2317316121
Nobody has their slides ready a week before! 🫠
Please RT. @SRF_Repro are now advertising for new Editors in Chief for its long standing flagship journal, @ReprodJournal. Got cool ideas as to how to take a society-owned journal to the next level? Then have a look at the ad... srf-reproduction.org/srf-journals-e…
Yes, it’s that time of year again, and here’s the obligatory photo.

Le programme peut être suivi soit sous la forme d'un diplôme « Microprogramme » d'un an, soit sous la forme d'un programme de maîtrise d’une durée de 2 ans. admission.umontreal.ca/programmes/mic… admission.umontreal.ca/programmes/mai…
Funny thing about science is that If you ignore the existing literature or never bother to read it every single one of your findings is a fantastic novel breakthrough!
Interested in graduate level study in Embryology? Can speak French? Then take a look at this new programme at @UMontreal. Could particularly suit anyone interested in a career in the fertility-treatment field. admission.umontreal.ca/programmes/mic… admission.umontreal.ca/programmes/mai…
