Are digits modified fins, or evolutionary innovations? Read how we tackled this old question from a new angle🧪 A story with @chasebolt.bsky.social, @homeobox.bsky.social and myself, coordinated by @denisduboule.bsky.social from @college-de-france.fr and published in @nature.com today! #InHoxWeTrust

Applications for our #PhD program are NOW OPEN! Our independently fully funded program allows students to focus entirely on #research & growth, exploring their own questions while learning from top experts in the field. #GradSchool Apply now: bit.ly/44VM6DI

Evolution’s eye game is wild, but mollusks take it to another level CRISPR in apple snails gives us a new model to dissect how nature rebuilds complex organs like the camera-type eyes we humans possess It turns out Evolution doesn’t just innovate, it rewinds, remixes, & regenerates rdcu.be/ezw0t

Did you know? 🧪 "The Interactive Fly" is a wonderful website hosted by @socdevbio.bsky.social where you can learn about their development, the history of gene discovery/name, and it is full of super useful resources for the #DevBio community 🪰https://www.sdbonline.org/sites/fly/aimain/1aahome.htm

I’m honored to receive this award that honors the memory of Camila and Pablo. Thank you so much for the recognition!

This issue has become more acute in recent years. A narrow view of "mechanistic" experiments holds us back. "A case for broadening our view of mechanism in developmental biology" journals.biologists.com/dev/article/...
