cell division synchrony in embryonic tissue 🔬🐟
Want to know what working at an imaging facility is like? An interview I did with Tereza Belinova’s may give you an idea! 👇
Meet Tereza Belinova, Image Analyst at IOF, ISTA — part of Austrian BioImaging/CMI 🇦🇹
She helps researchers turn image data into insight.

Join this cool conference next year at @embl.org !
Abstract deadline Nov. 18th!🔬
Only a few days left for abstract submission at the brand new EMBO|EMBL Symposium Collectivity in living systems: emergence, function and evolution. We have stellar speakers in cell, animal collectives & beyond @priscaliberali.bsky.social @icouzin.bsky.social @ricardsole.bsky.social

Join us!

Last year I had the chance to visit members Austrian BioImaging as @eurobioimaging.bsky.social Ambassador! Check out the breadth of cool science being done by them! 🔬
🌟Join our Scientific Ambassador, Magdalena Schindler, on a scientific tour of her hometown!

Meet the people and explore the facilities that make up the Node, and support Vienna's rich & collaborative imaging landscape. 🏛️🔬

Happy to share an interview I got to do with Katja Bühler, the Head of the Biomedical Image Informatics Group at VRVis in Vienna. I got to learn how she supports user projects as member of Austrian BioImaging/CMI Node! Enjoy the interview 💪🖥️🔬
Meet our Nodes! Katja Buhler, @vrvis.bsky.social, part of Austrian BioImaging/CMI Node, explains the #imagedata analysis services her team can provide to support #EuroBioImaging users in this short video.
Enjoy! 📺

Last month I successfully defended my PhD thesis on the role of cell division synchrony during early embryo development! I am lucky to have spent these past years working with an amazing team at @embldbunit.bsky.social. Thank you @nicolettapetridou.bsky.social for making it possible!
🎉 Congratulations to Magdalena Schindler, from the Petridou group @nicolettapetridou.bsky.social @embl.org, who has just defended her PhD thesis titled 'An optimum cell cycle heterogeneity times tissue fluidisation at the onset of zebrafish morphogenesis' #PhDDefense #Zebrafish #DevelopmentalBiology

Last fall, I got to join a great workshop on cell divisions during early embryo development. It was great to discuss science and community goals with my peers. Read all about it here 👇

A big thank you to @lendertgelens.bsky.social, @kamenzlab.bsky.social and @biologists.bsky.social for a great workshop! I enjoyed meeting the authors of papers I have read throughout my work on embryonic cleavages. Lots of engaging discussions and exciting science bridging biology 🧑‍🔬🔬 and theory 🖥️🧮.
Had a great time this week with a wonderful group of researchers at our workshop on the physics of early embryonic cell divisions! Big thanks to everyone there, i.e. Johanna, Frank, Laura and Adam from @biologists.bsky.social, and to my co-organizer @kamenzlab.bsky.social! Let’s do this again!

Congratulations to our PhD student @lena-schindler.bsky.social for receiving the best contribution award at the Theory Transversal Theme retreat at EMBL Barcelona! Lena talked about how variability in the timing of cell divisions impacts the robustness of tissue phase transitions #proudPI
