LGR5 regulates sequential tooth development: evidence from single-cell transcriptomics and a gene inactivation model
Tooth replacement in vertebrates depends on the persistence of the dental lamina, yet the molecular mechanisms that determine species-specific regenerative capacity remain poorly understood. Here we c...

🥹 Huge thanks to everyone who joined the @v4sdb.bsky.social Meeting 2025 in my homeland ♥️
I hope you enjoyed not only the science but also the stunning High Tatras.
It was a joy to be part of the organizing team for the first time 🙏 & I can’t wait to see you all at #V4SDB2027 in Prague!

Glad I had the chance to present my work on the hindbrain choroid plexus to the community at the European Brain Barrier Meeting 2025. 👏 Huge thanks to the organizers, @brittae.bsky.social and everyone else for such a nice meeting 🤗 #EBBM2025
Grind stays real – Víťa and @petrakompanikova.bsky.social went straight from the V4SDB Meeting 2025 to the European Brain Barrier Meeting in Bern, where Petra presented her work on the hindbrain choroid plexus. 🐁 Big thanks to the organizers and community for the warm first-time welcome! 😇 #EBBM2025
