Our diner venue for this beautiful #GastrulationReloaded conference at the Musée d’Orsay! #devbio

We made it to Gastrulation Reloaded! We didn’t think we’d be late but we had to go in circles around the block. I would not have thought any other institute would be harder to get into than The Crick!

Come and be our neighbours!

Lab’s 1st preprint! Menstruation is understudied due to societal taboos + a biological challenge: mice (a key system for research + drug discovery) don’t menstruate. @cagricevrim.bsky.social made menstruating mice + used them to discover early events in menstruation. He is on the job market!

How does life construct itself from within, and how might we learn to emulate its generative logic? Glad to be soon talking and discussing with @philipcball.bsky.social @bertaverd.bsky.social and other great colleagues at this @royalsociety.org event royalsociety.org/science-even...

Thrilled to share that the lab has been awarded a @wellcometrust.bsky.social Discovery Award to keep exploring the evolution of 6-methyladenine #6mA in Eukaryotes. We'll open postdoc (3️⃣) and tech (1️⃣) positions to start in 2026, please share with candidates or reach out if you’d like to join us.

The Agrawal lab is moving! This January we will be setting up shop at #UBC in Vancouver, in the department of #Zoology! We are actively recruiting at all levels, especially masters and PhD students. These position are #funded! Please send anyone interested my way!

Dr. Sophie Acton (@actonlab.bsky.social/UCL) is a Cancer Research UK Senior Fellow with an interest in lymphoid tissue biology. At #KSStromal26, she'll be sharing her insights on podoplanin - a molecule that controls DC motility within the lymph node. Register now! Link in bio.

Organizing the National Course of Genetics 🧬 by @segenetica.bsky.social and Conexion Genoma @csic.es alongside @dariloops.bsky.social has been a blast! A great opportunity for young researchers to learn and interact with leaders in the filed of #genomics during a whole week - the future is bright!

🔚Last day of the #CNG2025 by the @segenetica.bsky.social and Conexion Genoma @csic.es We close our scientific program with talks by @joadelas.bsky.social from UCL on developmental patterning, and Jose Manuel Franco @cnb-csic.bsky.social on transcription factors in plants 🌱

Llegamos al último día del curso #CNG2025 con @joadelas.bsky.social @ucl.ac.uk, explorando los patrones espaciales y temporales en el desarrollo!

Very excited to be on my way to the National Genetics Course in Madrid @segenetica.bsky.social It is always very special to go back to Spain for scientific reasons. It would be hard to convince uni student Joaquina of what would come. Impressive (aka intimidating 😂) line up

Best part of the job: visiting other places and discussing fun science. This time thanks to @sonnenlab.bsky.social

Do you have friends with questions about fertility? Egg freezing? Embryo research? IVF? Stem Cells? If you're UK-based this Friday, the BBC are hosting a Question of Science and tickets are still available. PLUS you can submit a question in advance to ask the panelists 🎤 shorturl.at/BCTW7

What an excellent fall program! Don't miss these talks!

Check out the latest work by @dbenzinger.bsky.social and @jamesbriscoe.bsky.social ! Building gradients in space and time. I am extremely biased but the Dec 15 issue of Dev Cell is 🔥🔥
