Here you can find the Research Briefing that accompanies our recent article — a quick, accessible overview of the key findings, future directions, and a bit of the story behind the work. 😉 rdcu.be/exPz7

The official website is now open. I’m looking forward to meeting lots of limb researchers in Tokyo 🌸🐓🐀🐟🦎 cscenter.co.jp/limbdev26/

🚨🚨🚨 Please RT! We're looking for a postdoc to join an exciting joint project between our lab @upf.edu & @crg.eu (Barcelona) and the Sander lab @mdc-berlin.bsky.social (Berlin) investigating how alternative splicing and microexons influences the maturation of pancreatic islets. Deadline: 30/09/25👇

How to represent genomes in 3D? In this paper (and video), we propose Geometric Diagrams of Genomes (GDG)—a visual grammar that aims at emulating the effect ribbon diagrams (Richardson et al 1981) had in protein structural biology. Time will tell.😅 👉🏼 genomebiology.biomedcentral.com/articles/10....

Un estudio revela que las alas de los murciélagos se forman reutilizando programas genéticos ya existentes La investigación en la que ha participado el @cabd-upo-csic.bsky.social obtuvo datos sobre los programas genéticos que subyacen a cambios morfológicos durante la evolución t.ly/rMKZt

How did the bat get its wings? New research from a collaboration between the labs of Stefan Mundlos (MPIMG), Dario G. Lupiáñez, and Francisca M. Real (@cabd-upo-csic.bsky.social) show how genetic programs were reused during the evolution of mammalian flight. --> www.molgen.mpg.de/news-2025-fl...

Thrilled to see our revised preprint now published in Nature Ecology & Evolution! If you’re curious about how to build a bat wing by re-using existing gene programs, check out the link or the tutorial below. Big congratulations to all co-authors!! Thanks to reviewers! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Finally out! 🥳 Our paper showing how a transposable element (TE) insertion can cause developmental phenotypes is now published @natgenet.nature.com 🧬🦠🐁 Below is a brief description of the major findings. Check the full version of the paper for more details: www.nature.com/articles/s41588-025-02248-5

Our paper describing the Range Extender element which is required and sufficient for long-range enhancer activation at the Shh locus is now available at @nature.com. Congrats to @gracebower.bsky.social who led the study. Below is a brief summary of the main findings www.nature.com/articles/s41... 1/

Textbooks: “Enhancers are just a bunch of TFBSs” But how do they REALLY work? New paper with many contributors here @berkeleylab.lbl.gov, @anshulkundaje.bsky.social, @anusri.bsky.social A 🧵 (1/n) Free access link: rdcu.be/erD22

We are delighted to share our new preprint “The evolution of gene regulatory programs controlling gonadal development in primates” www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Happy to share our latest paper, where we “dive” into the evolutionary history of whale genomes. Check it out for more details!! 🐳🐋🧬

We released our preprint on the CREsted package. CREsted allows for complete modeling of cell type-specific enhancer codes from scATAC-seq data. We demonstrate CREsted’s robust functionality in various species and tissues, and in vivo validate our findings: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

A single gene underlies male mating morphs in ruff sandpipers, a new Science study finds. The results show how evolutionary changes in a single gene's structure, sequence, and regulation can drive significant diversity within a single species. Learn more in our new issue: https://scim.ag/4arzNmU

Ever wondered how bats develop wings from their hands? 🦇✨ Check out our new preprint and the thread below! 🤓 👏Big applause to our amazing first authors Magdalena Schindler and Christian Feregrino and thanks to all our co-authors for their help! 🥂 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Gene regulation involves thousands of proteins that bind DNA, yet comprehensively mapping these is challenging. Our paper in Nature Genetics describes ChIP-DIP, a method for genome-wide mapping of hundreds of DNA-protein interactions in a single experiment. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
