Developmental biologist investigating how cells sense direction to control morphogenesis. Cetera lab is now open at the University of Minnesota! she/her/hers
GRC polarity 2024: thanks to the Company of Biologists @Co_Biologists, we have more capacity for trainee travel fellowship. Please email me to apply! https://t.co/d5o4IEAvQx
So pleased to announce that the first chunk of my graduate work is out now in @Dev_Cell 🫁🐭🔬 here we investigated the role of the planar cell polarity complex in lung sacculation, identifying a PCP-independent role for Vangl in the pulmonary mesenchyme https://t.co/UgEFcqxLT9
Read #SDBSciCommIntern @RefriedEctoderm new interview with @maureencetera@UMNews. “I found this fascinating image of this mouse that just had whorls in [the back] half of its body, which just did not make any sense to me,” said Cetera. #planarcellpolarity https://t.co/dCLWfaxFyA
Celebrating 30 years of the Developmental Biology Symposium at the University of Minnesota! Inspiring talks from @stanfordstomata, Denise Montell, Scott Holley, Laurent Nguyen, @robinsall, Marcos Simoes-Costa, and a journey through the history of dev bio from @jbwallingford.
@Dev_journal Thanks to everyone who contributed to this project! @rishbomb@GHaywardLara Brooke Phillips, Abhishek Biswas, Madalene Halley, Evalyn Beall, Bridgett vonHoldt, and Danelle Devenport.
@GHaywardLara Thank you, Ella! Ella used the Covid shutdown to learn to code and produce some fantastic figures for this paper! We were able to represent complex, tissue-scale patterns in a simple image.
PCP signalling in the rosette fancy mouse – give us a whorl

The new Isabella lab website is live and lab opening is just around the corner! We are hiring at ALL LEVELS, so anyone interested in studying zebrafish nerve development and regeneration in fun and affordable Minneapolis, please get in touch. https://t.co/bXN8cPjwuj
We are hiring postdocs! Are you interested in understanding how cells communicate directional information across great distances during embryonic development? Join us in the Twin Cities! Contact me for more info.
Very excited to have been selected as a speaker for this year’s Cell Polarity Signaling GRS! Can’t wait to share the story I’ve been working on about weird, non-PCP roles for Vangl in morphogenesis 🎉
