Very excited to see the first Beisaw lab publication out in its final form 🥳🥳 rdcu.be/ei1I7 if you’re interested in zebrafish heart regeneration and how cardiomyocytes replace the fibrotic injured tissue (spoiler alert: macrophages play an important role), then read it here 👇
Border-zone cardiomyocytes and macrophages regulate extracellular matrix remodeling to promote cardiomyocyte protrusion during cardiac regeneration
Nature Communications - Adult zebrafish are capable of heart regeneration, but how the collagenous injury site is replaced remains unclear. Here they provide an in-depth analysis of cardiomyocyte...

Stoked to present our latest, superbly led by Chris et al & @torres-sanchez.bsky.social We tackled a fundamental problem – how tissues are patterned during development – found that geometry-constrained ECM fractures pattern the myocardium in the vertebrate heart 1/n www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Have you ever wondered what role motile #cilia and cerebrospinal fluid (#CSF) play in brain development and physiology? If yes, please check out our latest article now published in Cell Reports and spearheaded by the newly minted Dr D'Gama www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
Motile cilia modulate neuronal and astroglial activity in the zebrafish larval brain
The brain uses a specialized system to transport cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), consisting of interconnected ventricles lined by motile ciliated ependymal…

The first work of my PhD is OUT 🎆
star-protocols.cell.com/protocols/38...

In this work, we share with the community our protocol for preparation, clearing and visualization of adult 🦓🐟 spinal cords structures that has been tested, refined and used quite frequently in our lab.
