We’re incredibly excited to present our work investigating the role of metabolism in mammalian development, out now in @Nature showing two state-specific spatiotemporal waves of glucose activity guiding mouse gastrulation

[Berna Sozen @BernaSozen_]

Our latest out today @Nature!
We revisit a century-old theory and show that metabolic gradients work hand-in-hand with genetic&signalling instructions to shape the embryo. Glucose isn't just an energy source, it acts as a major conductor of the body plan🍬

On Mondays we unintentionally match 😂 can you tell we spend a lot of time together? Love this group #SozenLab #DevelopmentalBiologists @YaleGenetics 🔬

[Ashley N. Abel @AshleyNAbel]

Just a few developmental biologists enjoying a beautiful Chicago evening after a packed day of spectacular science! #2023SDB has been such an incredible experience so far. I love meeting other trainees and sharing our visions for the future!

[Jenna Bergmann @bergmann_jenna]

People who say not to meet your heroes clearly aren’t developmental biologists. Amongst other incredible scientists, I got to meet the authors of my favorite textbook @mjbarresi and Scott Gilbert at @SocDevBio conference

[Tova Finkelstein @TFinkelstein_]

Had the absolute honor to meet the authors of my favorite Development textbook Michael Barresi and Scott Gilbert and have been having an amazing time learning #SDB2023

[Tova Finkelstein @TFinkelstein_]

Having an amazing time in Chicago learning from other developmental biologists!

[Ashley N. Abel @AshleyNAbel]

We’re so excited to be sharing our research in Chicago! Come visit the @BernaSozen_ lab posters

An incredible review on models of embryogenesis. A must read!

[Ashley N. Abel @AshleyNAbel]

Technologies to model early mammalian embryo development in vitro have advanced rapidly, providing new insights into self-organization and environmental control. @BernaSozen_ and I wrote a review as part of a special issue on #earlyembryonicmodels: https://t.co/F8o9WaxTcJ (1/3)

[Tova Finkelstein @TFinkelstein_]

Some incredible work from amazing friends and lab mates @pedroza_monique @IpekGassa and our fearless leader @BernaSozen_

[Monique Pedroza @pedroza_monique]

We’re pleased to share our first publication from the Sozen lab, now out @Nature! Through our 3D strategy, we capture spontaneous emb. + exembr. lineage bifurcation to study aspects of early human embryo patterning, starting from a single stem cell type.

I spoke with @BernaSozen_ about her groundbreaking new stem cell model that will offer an unprecedented look at human embryonic development. Check out my latest story at @YaleMed

Pleased to share w/ the #devbio community a story that’s taken hold of my heart since opening the lab with @bernasozen_ three years ago. Embryos! Metabolism! In our pre-print, we show how a wave of glucose uptake is necessary for #gastrulation progression. https://t.co/gSH8iDO3z6
