@KobeissiLetter @grok how does Australia fit in to total supply and reserve

@trader_travis Reckon SOL out competes for the rest of the cycle?

@chrmosimann @marklewandoski Twist1 is a great marker. Weve been running whole mount immunos and it very specially labells the elongating LPM and somites.

@chrmosimann @AJ_Pask @itiscolossal @BioSci_UniMelb @Jendometrium Just the beginning. Lots of new and exciting details on neural crest AND lateral plate mesoderm development in this model!

[Andrew Pask @AJ_Pask]

Our paper on the embryology of the dunnart is now up! Stunning images of these amazing little animals, helping marsupial conservation efforts!!

@chrmosimann Crest is awesome, but never underestimate the power of the Lateral Plate!

[Dr Axel Newton @AxelHNewton]

@chrmosimann Amazing 😂

[Dr Axel Newton @AxelHNewton]

@FutureJabroni @wonderofscience That's cool!

[Dr Axel Newton @AxelHNewton]

@RogersLabUCD @Diff_Journal @uribelabrice @lamsciworld @jbwallingford @SocDevBio Been trying to catch you to talk neural crest!

[Dr Axel Newton @AxelHNewton]

And it begins! Interrogating of NCC development in dasyurid marsupials 🤩 Mid-gestation dunnart embryo visualized with DAPI and SOX10 probe, thanks to @HCRimaging.

[Dr Axel Newton @AxelHNewton]

@JackDAshby Wow that's really cool!!

[Dr Axel Newton @AxelHNewton]

@AlexKoomz @JMoreau83 @MicroMonash Congrats @JMoreau83!!

[Dr Axel Newton @AxelHNewton]

@AlexKoomz @JMoreau83 @MicroMonash Wow, incredible images! Don't suppose you'd be interested in trying this out in a marsupial??

[Dr Axel Newton @AxelHNewton]

@JackDAshby We we're fortunate to scan the ultra precious AMS 12 week PY specimen, which I think would have been of a similar stage. Though if you are able to CT this little one and make public that would be fantastic. @DSRovinsky has been doing some cool follow up work on thylacine crania!

[Dr Axel Newton @AxelHNewton]

@aNATomy_Lab @JackDAshby @DSRovinsky @ZoologyMuseum @khelgen @anjgoswami Though this says otherwise?? https://t.co/gF3OwkDnHn

@aNATomy_Lab @JackDAshby @DSRovinsky @ZoologyMuseum @khelgen @anjgoswami Great thread on this! They certainly look clavicular (see also here: https://t.co/Cl8DoGTnpN). The epipubic bones aren't ossified in developing thylacine PYs, so seems unlikely they would pop up in the adult.

[Dr Axel Newton @AxelHNewton]

@JackDAshby @ZoologyMuseum This was one of our dream thylacine specimens that we never got access to sample! I made a request for this when we we're putting together our thylacine developmental series paper but I didn't hear anything back :(
