We study how stem cells migrate and differentiate into neurons and how cancer cells can hijack some of those mechanisms.

What are the 3D spatial molecular patterns of differentiating enteric nervous system (ENS) in vivo? Are there co-expression networks? Are there spatially variable genes? In our preprint www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... @RodrigoMoreC et al explored 1/4

Running empty on dev bio jokes this busy Mon. afternoon (do not despair, they shall undergo epimorphosis like a lizard's tail), so just a quick reminder that @socdevbio.bsky.social #SESDB2025 abstract & registration deadlines are TODAY at 11:59 PM ET. Join us!! #DevBio
@socdevbio.bsky.social SE Regional Mtg abstract deadlines are approaching! We hope the selective pressure of the short talk consideration deadline, 4/21, is evolving your abstract rapidly. Or perhaps it's undergoing steady morphogenesis in time for the poster deadline, 4/28. :-) #SESDB2025 #DevBio
Join us for the @socdevbio.bsky.social Southeast Regional Meeting, May 19-21! www.sdbonline.org/sesdb2025 Showcase your exciting research & receive valuable feedback at any stage, from a newly fertilized idea to a rapidly gastrulating hypothesis to a fully 'developed' story. 🙂 #SESDB2025 #DevBio
