We are excited to share the latest contribution from the lab! We found that cells in gastruloids communicate to each other in order to control the timing of gastruloid symmetry breaking.
Glad to share the second half of my work on Tsg focusing on the second half of the protein! Read below for modelling, mutations, embryos and even a bit of evo-devo! 🪰
Excited to share our latest findings on the extracellular regulation of BMP signalling by Twisted gastrulation! We identify how Tsg binds the Chordin family of BMP antagonists, leading us to propose an avidity-driven mechanism of BMP signalling control. https://t.co/tizEHfV7zq
Absolutely delighted to share this work on the conserved interaction between Twisted gastrulation and BMPs! Congratulations to my co-first authors Tomas @t_malinauskas and Amalie, and the entire team! Take a look here: https://t.co/IHcgWGAtUn
The evolution of multicellular organisms led to the development of body structures and functions. During embryogenesis, establishing three body axes–anterior-posterior (head-to-tail), dorsal-ventral (back-to-belly), and left-right–is essential for the organism's development. 1/n
It's that time of year again - we are collecting donations of festive food and gifts for @EmmelinesNew to help support local families this Christmas 🎁
The collection will run throughout November - please get in touch if you wish to get involved! 🎅

Please RT - we are looking for a postdoc to investigate how signalling filopodia collect and transduce the #BMP signal in #Drosophila ovarian germline stem cells, collaborating with @ShukryHabib_Lab in beautiful Lausanne! 🪰🏔️

🙌Friday was the last day of the Computational Modelling of Multicellular Systems course. Below is a picture of all the participants and some of our teachers.
It was great to have you here!

Next in our 'Lab meeting' series is @TheAsheLab@OfficialUoM, UK!
The lab investigates how cell signalling and gene expression dynamics control developmental patterning, using #Drosophila embryo and ovarian germline stem cells as models.

We’re really excited to share our latest paper published in NSMB on the structure of #fibrillin microfibrils by #CryoEM@wtccmr@OfficialUoM

Excited to share our latest research out today in @CellReports looking at transcriptional bursting of X chromosome genes in the Drosophila embryo. 🧬🔬

Brilliant to hear about the breadth of research going on here @MCF_UoM at the MCF away day, including our new neighbour @hungrytissue as well as valuable discussions about EDI 💡 Congratulations also to @Gareth_R_Moore for winning a poster prize, a great start to the year!🪰🧬🧫
We are hiring! There are TWO exciting new postdoc positions in the lab building upon our previous work on #BMP signaling both in the #Drosophila embryo and germline stem cells. Please RT and share, full details in the thread 🪰🧬🔬🥼
Great to see this work from @laurenfb267@jenniferc_love and @y_shapovalova as part of our collaboration with @MagnusRattray published! RNA-seq, mathematical modelling and imaging ⬇️🧬🧮🔬
