Exciting new preprint from our @cellbiol-mrclmb.bsky.social colleague Kate McDole and her postdoc @drkatiegoodwin.bsky.social. Beautiful imaging of the remarkable, and genome threatening, migration of primordial germ cells in mammalian embryos www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

40 years ago all of Genbank was published in print form by NAR. The same format today would require over 4 light seconds of shelf space. To a year of progress in 2025.

Postdoc position available in the Röper lab at the University of Cambridge. Investigate cytoskeletal dynamics, crosstalk and cell adhesion in the formation of the nephron tube in human renal organoids. www.jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/48947/
