Maybe it's time we rethink the idea that development is a cell centric process? In this beautiful review, María-del-Carmen and @stramerlab.bsky.social discussed how the ECM underlies and influences many morphogenesis processes from wing unfolding to mammary gland development. doi.org/10.1016/j.cd...

Excited to be giving a talk and sharing my work here! I look forward to making new friends and learning new things! #DevBio #BioPhysics

One of the reasons I love #DevelopmentalBiology is that it's so visually engaging. I had the pleasure of organising an image competition at the GRC last March, and share this passion. You can now check out these images on @the-node.bsky.social: thenode.biologists.com/grs-developm...

A heartfelt thank you to all the generous supporters of the Gordon Research Conference on Developmental Biology 2025. This event would not have been possible without your invaluable contribution.

It was an honour to contribute to the #DevelopmentalBiology community! Congratulations to Zainab Afzal @xainabafzal.bsky.social and Akshada Shankar Ganesh on being elected 2027 GRS DB chairs!

The Xiong Lab at #biologist100 A wonderful conference, great to meet so many people and share our passion for development! @lakshmib02.bsky.social @fengtongji.bsky.social

I'm so excited to share my work at #biologist100 Come and talk to me about how tissue stiffness regulates axis elongation! Poster 197.

@gurdoninstitute.bsky.social We celebrate the contributions of women in science and beyond. We recognise women who inspire, lead and push the boundaries of discovery every day. Together we work towards a future where science thrives through diversity, inclusion and equality. #InternationalWomensDay

Only one week left to register for the #DevelopmentalBiology GRC and GRS! And thank you to all our funders for the support! @swathiarur.bsky.social

Here is the 2025 embryo alphabet from alligator to zebrafish. Developmental biology is stunning & leads to important discoveries for human medicine. @socdevbio.bsky.social

We’re honoured to receive funding from @biologists.bsky.social for our upcoming conference. 🙏 Thank you for championing the biology community! 🧬 Explore their journals, meetings, and grants at www.biologists.com. 📅 Don’t wait—register now and join us! 🎉 @swathiarur.bsky.social

Abstract submission for the #DevelopmentalBiology GRS and GRC is still open, apply now! Looking forward to sharing research and meeting new people! See the full programme in the comments. www.grc.org/developmenta... @swathiarur.bsky.social

Excited for the #DevelopmentalBiology GRC and GRS! Abstract deadline: 20th of January!

Defended my PhD today!! 🥂🎓 So honoured to have shared this journey with the wonderful Xiong Lab, it's been so amazing!

There is such an exciting lineup of speakers! And join the accompanying GRS: 29th - 30th March, if you are a student or postdoc!

Very excited to share my 1st preprint here! We present a precise way to measure and manipulate tissues in early chicken embryos 🐣 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
