Suppression of ERK signalling promotes pluripotent epiblast in the human blastocyst - Nature Communications
The authors show human embryo lineage specification in the blastocyst is driven by differential FGF/ERK signaling, which segregates yolk sac-fated hypoblast and embryonic epiblast. They establish naïv...

In a thought-provoking @plosbiology.org Perspective article,
@briannosek.bsky.social asks whether science’s openness can be used against it, looking at how transparency and self-skepticism might be reframed in today’s discourse around golden standards

Shifting research focus comes with the risk of reduced impact
An analysis of millions of scientific papers and patents shows that the further a researcher or inventor moves from their previous work, the less cited their latest work will be.

We had previously shown that TBX3 and #WNT cooperate in limb #DevBio

We now have a shocking finding, just published in @pnas.org

TBX3 physically engages with β-catenin to drive metastasis genes in #ColorectalCancer (CRC)
