Bravo!

A thousand bravos for Núria Ros-Rocher, who just secured a permanent @cnrs.fr researcher position in our lab. These positions are (too) rare but give much-needed job security to young scientists and allow long-term projects. Núria will dive deep into the natural history of C. flexa 🧪🌊 #ProudPI

Taking us through axial elongation is David Turner @gastruloids.bsky.social, a great teacher of ES cell handling and formulating protocols for reproducible gastruloid generation. A-P extension, and into the 2nd week.

Superb dual lectures by @amartinezarias.bsky.social
on mouse, human, multispecies, embryology, gastruloids; from bench to birth - discussions on the dynamic nature of the field. Importance of history, context, and remaining lucid while discovering. Much to reflect upon, as we explore.

Isolation of muscle fibres and their stem (satellite) cells. Plate and wait, from quiescence to differentiation - following Shahragim’s lecture on muscle stem cell emergence and diversity. @tajbakhshlab.bsky.social,
@brendan-evano.bsky.social, Barbara Gayraud-Morel. Patience is a virtue.

Laura Cantini & Stephan Fisher lectures guided us through the trials and tribulations of omics - the power and drawbacks of data integration, and how to navigate the minefield. Thanks!

Isolation of small intestine and colon crypts to make organoids with Giulia Nigro, Aline Stedman, Sophie Dulauroy - following a great lecture by Marc Van de Wetering into the history and organoid biology of the gut. Great exercise on how to handle samples with the utmost care.

Thanks so much Isabella! Eglantine Heude who led the work with our excellent collaborations made unraveling each step so much fun!!

When I saw this awesome study by @tajbakhshlab.bsky.social, @chrmosimann.bsky.social, & colleagues a few months ago, I just knew I had to write about it for HWTAS! Check out our non-scientist friendly coverage of their work below. 🧪 #scicomm

When our fishy ancestors came onto land, there was a lot that had to change: not just fins, but also necks! In our latest post, we cover a recent study that shows how neck muscles were co-opted to build a mobile neck during evolution. Read it here: isabellacisneros.substack.com/p/heads-will...
