Today we celebrate the birthday of not one, but two amazing women in science! 🤗🎉Marie Skłodowska-Curie (1867), who discovered #radium & #polonium & pioneered #radioactivity, & Lise Meitner (1878), whose brilliance uncovered the physics behind #nuclearfission. Happy birthday, trailblazers! ✨

Our latest paper has just been published in Cell!
doi.org/10.1016/j.ce...
We developed a new method called MCC ultra, which allows 3D chromatin structure to be visualised with a 1 base pair pixel size.

Grateful to 🇵🇱 @ncn.gov.pl , 🇩🇪 @maxplanck.de , and 🇨🇿 MEYS for putting together the first Dioscuri Symposium in Krakow. Loved the open discussion panel — honest, insightful, and human. (And yes, the writing workshop was fantastic as well 😉).

The first international workshop that focused on #zebrafish was convened in 1990 in Eugene, Oregon. Sponsored by NIH and NSF, the gathering of ∼40 scientists sought to evaluate the research potential of the tiny fish. Today, nearly 1,800+ zebrafish labs exist worldwide. #ZebrafishFunFacts 🧪

Fantastic work! Zebrafish can regenerate what?!👇
📣🧪 Read our latest #research on joint regeneration in #zebrafish, published today in @natcomms.nature.com www.nature.com/articles/s41... @columbiauniversity.bsky.social
Dynamic cell fate plasticity and tissue reintegration drive functional adult synovial joint regeneration after complete resection - Nature Communications
Joint injury and disease are leading causes of disability, with mammalian joints exhibiting poor regenerative capacity. Here the authors showed that after loss of a whole joint, adult zebrafish regenerate de novo articular cartilage, ligament, and synovium into a complex joint organ.

Let’s zoom in 🔍
To study filament morphology in more detail, we used two transgenic markers:
🔴 kdrl:mCherry — marks endothelial vasculature
⚪ fgf10b:nEOS — highlights pillar cell nuclei within the lamellae
Big thanks to @fabianlab.bsky.social for the fgf10b:nEOS line

This was a fantastic conference for me and I believe for many of us. Thank you! ⛰️🙏🌼
Wow, that was amazing! We thank everyone for attending the V4SDB 2025 meeting! You all made it an excellent conference, where we had the opportunity to hear from outstanding speakers,share ideas and experiences, and of course have some unforgettable time during social activities!
