@CarrieOcto @MBLScience @TheOctoNation @TessaMontague @cephs Sorry @CarrieOcto, looks like this might turn out to be a classic underdog story… Our time has come! #skateisgreat

@debellard_maria Thanks for sharing. Great work by @JenaidRees and @EvoInspiredEng - started @CamZoology and finished @MBLScience!

[Andrew Gillis @GillisLab]

@emviricota Thanks - we sure love it!!

[Andrew Gillis @GillisLab]

Congratulations @scimaven!!!!

[Mandë Holford @scimaven]

Super excited to receive the @NIHDirector Pioneer award!! Lot’s of good science ahead!!

[Andrew Gillis @GillisLab]

Please go easy on us, Lee! 🤞🏻

@Wild_Girton @BritishSpiders We used to see these all the time when we lived on Thornton Road - often around skylights and in the top of the garage. We just let them be, and they never caused us any trouble!

[Andrew Gillis @GillisLab]

And we are delighted to welcome you @Michael_Wen_!!🤩

[Michael Wen @Michael_Wen_]

I’m back in Chicago after a lovely 10 week rotation @MBLScience and I am delighted to announce that I will be joining @Lab_VPrince and @GillisLab for my graduate work on neural crest development and evolution in zebrafish and skate.

[Andrew Gillis @GillisLab]

What a pleasure to highlight an exciting study on the evolution of neural crest skeletogenic potential by @JanStundl @BronnerLab @PerAhlberg1 and colleagues!

Congratulations @JanStundl @BronnerLab and to the whole team on this exciting new paper! 🤩

[Andrew Gillis @GillisLab]

@peiferlabunc I’m sure you could do the same with snail shells!

[Andrew Gillis @GillisLab]

@peiferlabunc Should’ve put a dab of nail varnish on the shell - from my (admittedly limited) experience, they tend to come back!
