I am a cell and developmental biologist at the Living Systems Institute (LSI) in Exeter. We work on spreading Wnt signals and characterising cytonemes in zebrafish embryos, human neurons, and cancer using high-res imaging and mathematical modelling.
Back from the London Zebrafish Research Network — a truly inspiring afternoon. Many thanks to @cvagenapantoula.bsky.social, @kkalyviotis.bsky.social and Eleni for putting together such an interactive programme, full of excellent talks - Tim 👏 - and great discussions. Zebbie research at its best!

Team BBQ yesterday: sun, sizzle, and seriously good food!
But also bittersweet as we said goodbye (for now) to two fab members 😢. Lucy is off on maternity leave to grow a tiny scientist. Eloise is swapping pipettes for passport stamps. We’ll miss them both-but remember, our lab door is always open!
