Happy to present for the first time my postdoc project, characterizing airway organoid architecture at the EMBO organoid conference #EESOrgan Stop by on Friday on poster #80! @events.embl.org

Truly chuffed for our fearless food physicists @mpipks.bsky.social + collabs from AT @istaresearch.bsky.social, IT & ES who won this year’s Ig Nobel - the #NobelPrize of hearts❤️for cracking the science of perfect pasta !🍝Kudos to all for intrepidly consuming lots of cheese in the name of science!😋

(1/14) I’m happy and proud to introduce: SpinePy – a framework to detect the "spine" of gastruloids and measure biological and physical signals in a local dynamic 3D coordinate system. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

So happy to see the cephalic furrow combo out back-to-back! This was a wonderful collaborative endeavor 🥹

Thanks to Mary Abraham for editorial help with the N&V and huge thanks to @levayerr.bsky.social for proofreading/fact-checking it. Fly development can be a bit far from my comfort zone, so it’s always reassuring to have an expert in your corner. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Some of the work behind this paper. Honoured to be part of it! Special thanks to @paveltomancak.bsky.social for giving me a space in his lab at @mpi-cbg.de and to @bruvellu.bsky.social for being such an inspiring scientist.

Dresden researchers @paveltomancak.bsky.social @bruvellu.bsky.social, Carl Modes, @cuencam15.bsky.social ‬ & colleagues published in @nature.com that a tissue fold in fruit fly embryos buffers mechanical stresses & may have evolved in response to mechanical forces. www.mpi-cbg.de/news-outreac...

Wow! I just learnt about annual killifish development and was amazed! Great opportunity at EMBL HD!

Day 11 of #LISH25 Not everyone in the pic but wanted to give a big shout out to the stars of the course. The amazing students that survived us and went home with amazing data! @olafselchow.bsky.social @olafselchow.bsky.social @bundschuhst.bsky.social @paveltomancak.bsky.social

Super happy and honoured to have been able to share once with these guys in love with microscopy #LISH25 Dresden will always feel like home. @ereynaud.bsky.social @mpi-cbg.de @paveltomancak.bsky.social @olafselchow.bsky.social @bundschuhst.bsky.social

Walking into the brain of an Alzheimer’s mouse. I overloaded the mouse with therapeutics (pink) and labeled vessels (green), and was clearing the brain for almost 2 months. Thanks to Stephan for a nice movie from #Blaze microscope at #LISH25 #LISH2025

Day 11 of #LISH25 Last lectures of the course, closing with beautiful plant light sheet imaging by Maria Cuacos and organoids by Gustavo Madeiros. From now on, data transfer, analysis and presentation preparation! @paveltomancak.bsky.social @bundschuhst.bsky.social @mpi-cbg.de

Day 10 of #LISH25 Late night image analysis as the end approaches. Tired but still going on! @paveltomancak.bsky.social @mpi-cbg.de @bundschuhst.bsky.social @events.embl.org

Day 9 of #LISH25 Some field trip to haunt for tasty specimens @paveltomancak.bsky.social @bundschuhst.bsky.social

Day 8 of #LISH25 Instructors also are getting their hands dirty, but looking cool @paveltomancak.bsky.social @bundschuhst.bsky.social @mpi-cbg.de

Day 7 of #LISH25 After a well deserved day off we came back BIG. Mesoscopic light sheet imaging of lost and found specimens in the wild. Caught by @giuliaserafini.bsky.social @mpi-cbg.de @whyvinca.bsky.social @paveltomancak.bsky.social @bundschuhst.bsky.social We miss u @ereynaud.bsky.social

Bye bye #lish25... Time to cry for 12 hours in trains... Will miss you all even @paveltomancak.bsky.social Keep up the good work! @bundschuhst.bsky.social @cuencam15.bsky.social

Back to the bench for #LISH2025 at @mpi-cbg.de after a day of exploring Dresden. Starting our day with Rocky Balboa and Matteo Rauzi. Thanks a lot for organizing @paveltomancak.bsky.social @ereynaud.bsky.social @cuencam15.bsky.social

Day 5 of #LISH25 !! One of the most busy microscopy markets I've ever seen! Bingo! @ereynaud.bsky.social @paveltomancak.bsky.social @bundschuhst.bsky.social

Day 4 of EMBO #LISH25 Caffeinated drinks are flowing. Some with unexpected patterns in the spirit of the image analysis that awaits. @paveltomancak.bsky.social @ereynaud.bsky.social @mpi-cbg.de

Day 3 of EMBO #LISH25 First microscopy market day! Busy with sample preparation and time sensitive specimens. @mpi-cbg.de @paveltomancak.bsky.social @ereynaud.bsky.social

Camila Weiss (@cweissg.bsky.social ) submitted this curious amphipod we captured with Jose Palma and imaged in Chile during the EMBO Developmental Biology Practical Course. Go ahead and look at all the selected images and vote for your favourite! focalplane.biologists.com/2025/03/11/v...

Any master students interested in (live) volumetric imaging techniques, organoid culture, image analysis and/or micro-fabrication could drop me a line? Please share :)

Finally made the move to bluesky! For the ones who don't know me, you can expect cool evo-devo, organoids and microscopy posts! Few things about me: 1/3
