Have you ever wanted to *see* receptor activity in embryos? If so, our new preprint is for you! In it, we showcase a new live-cell biosensor for visualizing receptor tyrosine kinase activity in living embryos – pYtags!

@moitrayee_lab @toettch Thank you!!

[Emily Kolenbrander Ho @emkolen]

I’ll be starting my undergrad-powered lab this summer at Claremont McKenna College and I’m super excited to continuing exploring new signaling biology with pYtags. If you are interested in tagging your favorite RTK (in flies or in other model systems), please reach out!

Huge thanks to: @toettch for being the best advisor. @PayamFarahani for developing pYtags and starting this project with me. @rpkimyip and @EPosfai for amazing egg chamber imaging. Alison and Stas for gorgeous trachea imaging. And @OatmanHarrison who can segment anything!

What can a simple sea squirt tell us about neural crest evolution?🔬 Explore the latest research from my PhD journey at @PrincetonMolBio, out now in @Nature. @Princeton

Can’t wait for all the awesome science to come from the @h4rrymcnamara lab!

[Harry McNamara @h4rrymcnamara]

a personal update: in January, I'm moving to Yale to join @MCDB_Yale and to open my lab in the @WuTsaiYale Institute!

We will investigate multicellular self-organization using synbio tools to read and write developmental signals in stem cell models.

Thank you to the NCB edititorial team and to our reviewers for a constructive review process which helped improve our study. A thread on updates (1/n):

It's new-preprint-from-the-lab day! (In my opinion the most fun + authentic day to celebrate a new publication.) Check it out:
"Large-scale control over collective cell migration using light-controlled epidermal growth factor receptors"

new results! We describe an optogenetic method to 'paint' patterns of morphogen signals in zebrafish embryos to guide their development. Preprint here:

@thuvpnguyen @Princeton Welcome!!!

[jared toettcher @toettch]

Happy to share a new opto-technique preprint from the lab spearheaded by the indomitable @EH_Reed!

In it we report a technique to dissolve constitutive protein condensates using an old friend, the classic "solubilizing" protein domain, MBP.
