Had a great time bowling with @claudiaraudia.bsky.social's lab!

Any similarities to bowling pins are purely coincidental! 🎳

👋hi! Not sure who HRB is (though I’m sure I’ll be embarrassed that I didn’t know) but Celeste is in Genome Sciences. Unfortunately can’t make it to fly meeting this year but planning for next year!

We'll be kicking off season 5 of Virtual Gastrulation Zoom Talks with two stellar (non-gastrulation😛) speakers: Louis Prahl & Tyler Huycke! They will speak about their work on kidney and intestine morphogenesis on October 19th! So, save the date and more details forthcoming!
Flyer for VGZT talk October 19th feature Tyler Huycke (UCSF): A fluid-like mesenchyme shapes the intestine, and accompanying image of developing intestine and Louis Prahl (Penn): Branching, crowding, and packing in the developing kidney, and accompany8ing image of developing kidney.
