Please allow me to introduce... our new preprint 🎉 Together with Michael Zhao, Anna Erzberger and Alexander Aulehla, we investigate pattern formation due to aggregation in confined systems. You can find it at arxiv.org/abs/2509.08533 @michaelzhao.bsky.social @erzbergerlab.bsky.social

Many years in the making but now finally online! What determines the temperature scaling and thermal limits of cell cycle duration in embryos? We tackled the question using a combination of dynamical systems analysis and experimental measurements in embryos and in cycling Xenopus extracts.

Brand-new conference on collective behaviour! Join us to foster a community to study how interactions among the constituents trigger fascinating collective phenomena: biofilms, fish schools, tissue self-organisation, bird swarms & many more! Thanks to amazing speakers for helping us realise this!

We are searching for an enthusiastic scientist to join our team and establish annual killifish as a model system for early developmental biology and biophysics! @embl.org @embldbunit.bsky.social Apply here: embl.wd103.myworkdayjobs.com/EMBL/job/Hei... Please re-post 🙏

We’re looking for curious, innovative science leaders at EMBL Heidelberg! 🔬🧬🦠 Join a vibrant, interdisciplinary community where collaboration and innovation are nurtured at all levels. Take a look at these four open positions 👇

🚨Job alert in theory/math devbio 🚨 I’m currently advertising postdoc positions to join my group. We’re building reaction-diffusion models to understand some of the crazy things embryos can do. We are based in a beautiful part of Scotland :). Please share! www.abdnjobs.co.uk/vacancy/rese...

Ready to explore what's next in the life sciences? 🧬🔍 Then check out our new 2026 EMBL Annual Poster 👉 s.embl.org/2026-poster Join us for another year of asking the big questions in the life sciences. See you in 2026? #EMBL #lifesciences #molecularbiology #bioinformatics

🧵 🧪 1/ Hi! I’m excited to share our latest work, now on arXiv: Repulsive particle interactions at cellular interfaces enable selective information processing (arxiv.org/abs/2506.14739) Where we explore how the physical properties of living systems can help cells process spatial information.

Experimental embryology postdoc available in my lab at the @biology.ox.ac.uk @ox.ac.uk working on the evolution of vertebral counts. Reach out if you’re passionate about EvoDevo, enjoy lab work and microscopy and are into or could get into cichlid fishes. Deadline on the 16th June. Please share!

We are organizing a conference for young researchers at the intersection between physics & biology: www.embl.org/about/info/c... @embl.org @events.embl.org @intcha.bsky.social Please consider applying/registering -- the deadline is already in one week!

🚨🚨Please repost!! 📢📢 Still time to submit short talk abstract for EindPBS2025! Five themes this year: • Mechanobiology • Protein pattern formation • 4D Genome • Stochastic biology • Biohydrodynamics bit.ly/EdinPBS2025

Recently got your PhD on a cell or developmental biology topic in Belgium? Check out this call! Last week to submit your application! Thanks for reposting in your network :)

📣 Deadline extension alert! 📣 Good news for anyone who didn't have time to prepare an abstract for #EESTCBio: the submission deadline has been extended to 25 February! 🦬🧬 Submit your abstract here: s.embl.org/ees25-03-bl

I really enjoyed the 2023 edition of this conference! Looking forward to this one in May. Abstract deadline 11th of February.
