This #2026SDB talk's #PokemonPartner is Dhelmise, the Sea Creeper Pokemon and the final talk partner of the meeting.
This #2026SDB talk's #PokemonPartner is Dundunsparce, the Land Snake Pokemon and one of the few Pokemon really inspired by (Drosophila) developmental genetics: bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Dudunsp...
Less than a week now until I head to Vegas for #2026SDB. Drop by the @biologists.bsky.social booth for goodies and a chat about @dev-journal.bsky.social and @the-node.bsky.social
Now's your chance to collect citeable 'at a glance' posters from @dev-journal.bsky.social & @dmmjournal.bsky.social at #ISSCR2026, including 'Stem cell-based models of early human development' by @liliulab.bsky.social and @jun-wu-lab.bsky.social l. Visit @biologists.bsky.social booth #1005.
I'm attending #ISSCR2026. Visit The Company of Biologists' @biologists.bsky.social booth to learn more about publishing in our journals, including @dev-journal.bsky.social. I'll also be participating in 'How to get your paper ready for peer review' organised by @stemcellreports.bsky.social.
Please do chat to Dominique and Saanjbati about submitting to Development and our upcoming Special Issue – Plant and Algae Development #DevSIPlantAlgae journals.biologists.com/dev/pages/pl...
Planarians also reproduce asexually by fission – pulling their body in two & then regenerating the missing halves. Breaking occurs all over development; see this recent @dev-journal.bsky.social Review from @torres-sanchez.bsky.social, @rashmi-priya.bsky.social & colleagues: doi.org/10.1242/dev....
#gfe2026 @gfeev.bsky.social PhD Award goes to Tatiana Lebedeva 🎉 for Tatiana's thesis investigating the role of β-catenin in specifying germ layers in one of my favourite organisms, the starlet sea anemone, Nematostella.
The central nervous system forms by 'folding in' part of the outer layer of the embryo. Kerstin Feistel studies the cytoskeleton and tissue stiffness to understand how cells change shape to orchestrate tissue folding in frogs. #gfe2026 Video from @dev-journal.bsky.social: doi.org/10.1242/dev....
Girish has also written an 'In preprints' article for @dev-journal.bsky.social: doi.org/10.1242/dev.... If you're interested in writing and commissioning these articles, Development currently has a call for Preprint Editors until 30 March Learn more here: journals.biologists.com/dev/pages/pr...
Speak to @ingridtsang.bsky.social if you'd like a copy of @dev-journal.bsky.social's 'Stem cell-based models of early human development' poster by @liliulab.bsky.social and @jun-wu-lab.bsky.social You can read the article here: doi.org/10.1242/dev....
If you're looking for a quick and light-hearted weekend read I'd recommend 'An interview with Mole' in @jcellsci.bsky.social! #biologists100 doi.org/10.1242/jcs....
I'll be bringing along a handful of our 'Development at a glance articles' from Miyuki Suzawa and Michelle Bland Insulin signaling in development doi.org/10.1242/dev....
Any news-type post on the Node @the-node.bsky.social between now and the end of September is in for a chance to win £200 and an interview - a little incentive to put pen to paper and finally get your piece shared with the #devbio & #stemcell community. thenode.biologists.com/the-node-wri...
Celebrate by picking up your own @dev-journal.bsky.social Hox poster "Hox genes in development and beyond" by Katharine Hubert and Deneen Wellik at @biologists.bsky.social booth #4. #2025ICDB #2025SDB #ICDB2025 And/or see the full article here: doi.org/10.1242/dev....
I'll be chairing the last #DevPres webinar of 2024, featuring three talks on gene regulation from Madalena Maderia Reimão Pinto, Tran Phuc Khoa Le (@LeTranPhucKhoa1 on X) and Gabriel Aughey. It's on 4 December at 15:00 GMT - register now: us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regi...
