@Dev_Cell A lay summary of this work is now available: https://t.co/VYPMOQTPaN
Thanks again to Kathy @NiakanLab and Richard Acton @BabrahamInst for their help and input.

Dr @GunesTaylor is the editor of our magazine and clearly a fan of science since an early age! This is what she would share with a videoscope-loving young Gunes!

“When does human life begin?” teaching human embryology in the context of the American abortion debate

Congratulations to Prof. Kathy Niakan, @NiakanLab, on being awarded the Mary Lyon Medal🏅 for their pioneering research on the function of genes that regulate early human development and the molecular mechanisms that direct cell fate in human embryos.

Special shout-out to @MicheleMarass , our outstanding steward through the turbulent waters that is the review process.

[ASBrumm @ASBrumm]

Beyond thrilled to share my PhD work, published yesterday in @Dev_Cell. We show that both NODAL and BMP signalling are active in the human blastocyst, but NODAL signalling is not required to initiate or maintain the human pluripotent epiblast. 1/10

[Developmental Cell @Dev_Cell]

Online now: Initiation and maintenance of the pluripotent epiblast in pre-implantation human development is independent of NODAL signaling https://t.co/BLQEIceQDu

Finally, if you fancy a deep dive into our data, over 100GB of confocal microscopy data on human blastocysts are available at https://t.co/UqhkKL5EaO. 10/10
