I am beyond excited to share that my postdoc project @szndohrn.bsky.social and the @arnonelab.bsky.social is now available in #ScienceAdvances @science.org. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

What are these? You are looking at embryos of a sea squirt. Each of the 'soap bubbles' is a living cell, about a fourtieth of a millimetre in size. The outlines of the cells are visible thanks to fluorescent markers identified by Hitoyoshi Yasuo @hitoyas.bsky.social see doi.org/10.1101/2024... 🧵

One of the coolest poster places I have seen so far is definitely this one in OIST at #CIAC2025 featuring many stunning cephalopod videos 🐙🦑

“This year’s award comes at a time when funding for scientific research is under threat in the US…. “It’s a very timely message when we’re seeing the US undermining so much of its science base,” says Coyle. Aghion said, “Openness is a driver of growth. I see dark clouds accumulating.”

Two group leader positions available in the broader areas of RNA science, RNA technologies, and RNA medicine. Attractive packages and a great environment. Come and join us at Helmholtz RNA Würzburg, Bavaria.
