Enjoyed a lot the Developmental Biology GRC 2025 last month.
Thank you @swathiarur.bsky.social, Kathy Cheah and Anna Kircheva for organising it!
Looking forward to the 2027 edition !

Unfortunately, James cannot make it to the Developmental Biology GRC. So, I will give his talk instead. See you in California. #GordonConf

Forgot to post.
Come talk to me about why opossum are such an amazing developmental model. #Beddingtonconf

Our (Turner lab.) latest preprint is out! 🐭🧬We show that sex chromosomes regulate the transcriptional and developmental landscape of the mouse preimplantation embryo.
