This is really cool !

Congratulations Ido ! So well deserved ! Such an exciting research direction.

Congrats Mike ! #TeamTempo

The Sahel region (and sub-Saharan Africa generally) are so underrepresented. Given this region currently has the fastest population growth rates globally, that seems entirely unjustifiable.

Great work by Ido and team !

You link #phenotype 🦜 to #genotype 🧬 with #comparative #genomics 💻? This #review is for you 📜: authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S... We review new #methods, remaining #challenges and #future directions and highlight recent key studies. Thanks @hillermich.bsky.social! Please share! 🙂

Really interesting work by Sergio !

📢 We are recruiting! Several projects are available and can be tailored to the candidate's profile. Most include confocal imaging/spatial OMICs technologies. Please share and RT 🙏

🔔 Proud to share the preprint of my PhD work in the Petridou group @nicolettapetridou.bsky.social @embl.org ✨ “A closed feedback between tissue phase transitions and morphogen gradients drives patterning dynamics” 🐟 🔁 📶 🔗 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... #devbio #biophysics 🧵⤵️

really cool ! Can't wait to dig into this

Join this week's VGZT seminar to explore evo-devo in eels and how rigidity transitions shape embryonic tissue organization! 🐟

Come for the E(el)vo-Devo Stay for Laura's opto-tools

As this @embo.org EvoDevoTempo Paris 2025 comes to close, my biggest takeaway message is that we absolutely must do this again! Cheers to the organizers and thanks for all the feedback on our work from the lovely Tempo community Until next ⏰ time ⏰

good decision !

Incredibly prescient

Number of genetic differences between random pairs of African individuals (black points) and a corresponding random European (blue points). 20 random samples. One instance: a person from Russia has fewer differences to a Kenyan than that same Kenyan to a Namibian.

Remember when you first learned about genetics at school? All those fascinating examples of human traits that are each apparently determined by just a single gene? Time to check in on some of your favourites to see how they’re doing. 🧬🧵🧪 1/n

Modern science wouldn’t exist without the online research repository known as arXiv. Three decades in, its creator still can’t let it go.

Enjoyed reading this from James and Callum. Modularity is key !

The way to go !

Dystopian. I have a suggestion: how about you pay your reviewers for the long hours of reviewing? Ideally from the billions you are making in profit, from taxpayer money.

More than three billion people in the world do not have access to modern energy sources, such as electricity, for cooking. Instead they have to rely on solid fuels, such as crop waste, wood, and coal, that cause indoor air pollution. This pollution kills millions of people every year.

where we are in Europe: decarbonisation out deregulation in arming efforts: magic fiscal space.

The big reversal in Germany’s election Extreme right (AfD) gained every where but particularly in the poorest regions. Social Democrats (SPD) lost everywhere but particularly in the poorest region.

Astounded at the blaśe attitude in the German political commentariat. A result being "expected" doesn't mean it is not alarming. AfD did very well across the electorate. In the east/west, old/young, male/female. It poached ∼ 1 million voters from CDU & over half a million from SPD (center left!)

A disastrous result in the gloomy German elections. Biggest winner is the far-right AfD. With 1 in 4 voters basically voting for a neo-nazi party. Unfortunately a "grand coalition" is likely to give more of the same. Next election AfD will surge even more. Abysmal and depressing outlook.

Bitte am Sonntag wählen gehen! Noch nie war eine Wahl so wichtig für Deutschlands Zukunft. #Btw2025

Love it.

Crazy to see how everyone is falling in line with the change of tune. Spineless hypocrites.

I am recruiting an #ERC funded PostDoc to work on the evolution of vertebral counts in cichlids. This is an experimental project & will be looking for candidates with experience generating reporter lines, live-imaging and experimental embryology. Application deadline: 25th Feb. tinyurl.com/33jbu8fa

So proud of my Brother ! Sold out show yesterday in Berlin. Great performance. Catch them in Paris today and London tomorrow. #tul8e #cocktailtour

Final poster for the second edition of the #EvoDevoTempo meeting is finally ready! Great lineup and 3x more social activities: meetings.embo.org/event/25-dev... @bassemh.bsky.social @mdiazcuadros.bsky.social @vanderhaeghenp2.bsky.social

My new book 'Evolution Evolving. The Developmental Origins of Adaptation and Biodiversity', written with Tobias Uller, Nathalie Feiner, Marc Feldman & Scott Gilbert, is published by @princetonupress.bsky.social For more information see www.evolutionevolving.org #science #evodevo #plasticity

If you are interested in all things stem cells and development, then this is the conference for you 🤩 We have put together an exciting and diverse list of speakers - and you can be a part of it too! 😉 Loking forward hearing from young scientists - for oral presentations register by tomorrow! 🤓 👻

Excellent

Let's keep it going ! #preprints #openscience

#EvoDevoTempo Can't wait for 2025 !

umm maybe it would be better if you focus on: the inexorable rise of far right neo-fascists across the continent the imminent dangers of AI and the cost of living crisis ? hubris.

“In the end, science doesn’t move one paper at a time; it moves one inspired person at a time. That’s really our currency as scientists—and it’s our duty to pass that inspiration along to the public. We need to make science a much more human endeavor, because one inspired person…
