Very sad news, John Gurdon has died.

A developmental biologist's developmental biologist, Nobel prize winner

His work is the foundation of much of today's dev & stem cell bio.

An inspiration to many, including me. Always asking questions & wanting the answers

Excited for the @isscr.org‬ meeting in Hong Kong this week? #ISSCR2025

We've curated a 'Focus on stem cells' collection to complement the meeting, highlighting recent research and review-type articles discussing the wide range of studies using #stemcells.

Focus on stem cells
Stem cells are inextricably linked with developmental biology. They underpin the formation and maintenance of our tissues, and are activated after injury to enable repair and regeneration. The recent advances in using stem cells to build organoids and stem cell-based embryo models have allowed us to probe deeper into developmental biology to reveal the mechanical, chemical and cellular roles of self-organisation, morphogenesis, pluripotency and differentiation.

Curated to complement the 2025 International Society for Stem Cell Research (ISSCR) Annual Meeting in Hong Kong, this collection highlights recent research and review-type articles discussing the wide range of studies using stem cells. We hope you find this collection interesting and welcome your own submissions for consideration by our expert Editors from the field including James Briscoe, Matthias Lutolf and James Wells.

So proud of this work finally out in @natmicrobiol.nature.com! We examined antigenic variation in malaria parasites at single-cell level and found a surprising level of diversity. Make sure to check it out and don’t miss my talk on Thursday to hear about this story! #malaria #scRNA-Seq #EMBLMalaria

Hi @marklewandoski.bsky.social ,

You are already on the DevBio II starter pack. Please check to make sure you can see your @ handle.

Devbio I was filled to its max of 150 members many months ago. So U stated a second pack which is almost full.

As this @embo.org EvoDevoTempo Paris 2025 comes to close, my biggest takeaway message is that we absolutely must do this again!

Cheers to the organizers and thanks for all the feedback on our work from the lovely Tempo community

Until next ⏰ time ⏰

having a lovely ⏱️time⏱️ at the #EMBO EvoDevoTempo meeting in paris

very much a field defined by its multidisciplinarity and diversity of model systems, leading to discoveries that wouldn't be possible otherwise

also, paris in the spring is definitely a thing

Last week, postdocs from @crg.eu & @babrahaminst.bsky.social came together to organise the International Postdoc Symposium, 2 incredible days full of science, dialogue & networking. These collaborations are so important! And Iris Uribesalgo, EU-LIFE Policy Officer, was there to talk about her role 😊
