Latest from ours: www.cell.com/cell-reports...

This is two stories in one: a case study/cautionary tale on developing genetic tools in new organisms, and the first hint at a gene regulatory network for choanoflagellate multicellular development (which turn out to involve a Hippo/YAP/ECM loop!) A 🧵

Check out our new preprint on bioRxiv: Brain-wide activity imaging combined with electron
microscopy reveals novel nociceptive circuits. We link whole-brain activity to the
connectome using volume EM. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Combining brainwide activity imaging and electron microscopy reveals novel nociceptive circuits
To understand how brains work, it is necessary to connect neural activity to synaptic-resolution circuit architecture. Recent advances in light-sheet microscopy (LSM) enable whole-brain, cellular-reso...

"Connectomes: The wiring diagram of an entire animal"

@eLife
A phylogenetic tree for bilaterally symmetric animals. Whole-body connectomes have been constructed for just three species (indicated by stars): the annelid P. dumerilii, the nematode C elegans, and the tunicate C. intestinalis. A whole-brain connectome has also been assembled for the insect D. melanogaster. Between them, these species span three major clades: Spiralia, Ecdysozoa and Deuterostomes. Only partial connectomes are available for molluscs and vertebrates.

At long last, the version of record of our paper on the #platynereis #connectome

"Whole-body connectome of a segmented annelid larva" is out.

Do you want to understand how developmental programs are encoded in animal genomes? Join our lab at the @szndohrn.bsky.social for a PhD project to unravel the developmental dynamics in sea urchins during the metamorphosis from larva to juvenile.
Deadline JUNE 14th!

Interested in how food affects larval development?
Check out my new preprint 👉 (www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...)
This work wouldn’t have been possible without the support of @marinvmet.bsky.social and @camzoology.bsky.social
Effects of food availability on larval development during ontogenetic niche shift in a marine annelid
Many marine invertebrates have a biphasic life cycle with a free-swimming larva and a bottom-dwelling adult. The transition from a planktonic to a benthic lifestyle is a significant step in the animal...
