Regenerative abilities vary between species. To learn why, José García Arrarás takes advantage of local sea cucumbers that live on the beach here in Puerto Rico. Like the Pokémon Pyukumuku, the sea cucumbers eject their innards in response to stress and then regrow them

Lots to 🩷 about an axolotl but, for @jesslamae.bsky.social, the appeal of these smiley salamanders is trying to harness their ability to regenerate limbs. Prof. Whited highlights how the removal of one limb induces changes in cell behaviour throughout the whole body.

Hey #2025ICDB folks! Do you have questions about publishing with Nature Communications? Curious about editorial careers?

I’ll be outside the poster hall from ~3:45-4:15 today and tomorrow. Come find me, or drop me a message if this time doesn’t work for you!

Look who found me at #2025ICDB! I first met @sadewill.bsky.social at a southeast regional @socdevbio.bsky.social meeting waaaay back when - now we're both in new positions AND she's on the cusp of starting her own lab 🤩. Meet people at conferences, folks!! Science-friends are the best!

Here is Kim's (@ucsdcooperlab.bsky.social) well-read @dev-journal.bsky.social Review from last year's special issue on uncovering developmental diversity.

If you would like your own copy of the special issue, you can pick one up now at #2025ICDB #2025SDB - booth #4.

Neptune: a Roman god; a planet; and now a new technology developed by @anderssonlab.bsky.social to trace the differentiation of each cell within the developing mouse ectoderm – a tissue that gives rise to the skin, sensory organs (e.g. inner ear) & nervous system.

The end of conferences are bittersweet. You spend days with folks aimed with the same goals- thinking about science, creating community, making new friends and seeing old friends. But whew- they are also exhausting! 😴 See you in Vegas @socdevbio.bsky.social! Safe travels #2025ICDB attendees!

As cephalopods, longfin inshore squid have three hearts: two to pump blood through the gills & a third to circulate oxygenated blood around the body. @gertjanveenstra.bsky.social shows how each heart forms from a shared embryonic origin, in close concert with the gills.

Schwann cells wrap neuronal axons like the tortilla around a burrito. Sarah Petersen reveals that Schwann cells promote regeneration in response to injury and aims to unpick their enigmatic nerve-wrapping dynamics.

So excited to be in Puerto Rico for #2025ICDB #2025SDB! Come visit me at my poster (#C36) Saturday to hear about multi-omic sequencing to mature hPSC-derived skeletal muscle, and see my lab mate and friend Isabelle’s talk (session 4.1) on lamin B loss in muscle nuclei! 💪

The ornamental Polish chicken, which has an extra-feathery crown, is Cheng-Ming Chuong's species of choice to study how skin has region-specific developmental programmes by comparing feather shape, colour & pattern variation in different anatomical locations.

In human patients, single gene variations are linked to seemingly different conditions in different tissues. Marycruz Flores Flores studies specific genes linked to variable pathological development of the heart, lung and limbs in humans (Tbx4/Tbx5) using the zebrafish.

Loved this workshop at #2025ICDB, where @rebeccacalisi.bsky.social & Kevin Alicea-Torres helped us understand that the best way to combat misinfo is to start with curiosity (instead of correction).💪 Thanks to @rogerslabucd.bsky.social & @spiraldoc.bsky.social for pushing us out of our comfort zones!
If you are at #2025ICDB please join us for Workshop #1: Truth Matters: Strengthening Science Communication to Counter Misinformation from 10:30-12:30 today. We will discuss common misinformation topics and ideas on how to better adapt in these conversations. @socdevbio.bsky.social @isdb.bsky.social
