¡¡ATENCIÓN!! Esta semana comienza una nueva edición de #CienciaenelBar de la @unisevilla.bsky.social 🤩 Este curso nos encontraréis en la Sala El Cachorro cienciabar.wordpress.com/.../comenzam... #DivulgaUS

Happy to share the Biodiversity Cell Atlas white paper, out today in @nature.com. We look at the possibilities, challenges, and potential impacts of molecularly mapping cells across the tree of life. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Excited to post my first #JobOffer! I am looking for a research technician to help me build new projects from the grounds up at @cabd-upo-csic.bsky.social We will use medaka to study how organs can be reprogrammed! Details on how to apply below 👇 #JobOffer #ScienceJobs #EvoDevo #GeneRegulation

🎉 Another exciting contribution from our lab this summer! 🧬 Nearly complete, gapless genome of the sex-changing central bearded dragon (Pogona vitticeps) shed new light on the mystery of reptile sex determination. Proud to be part of this collaborative effort! academic.oup.com/gigascience/...

Everything starts with few cells and big hopes 🙂

Amazing Lab and topic!!

Update of our preprint on Inter-individual gene expression variability in fishes! We improved statistical analyses of continuous variables, and especially added machine learning on promoters which confirms cis-regulation of organ-specific expression variability, under stronger sequence […]

1) I am delighted to present this terrific tour de force research conducted by my post-doc Dr. Gayani Senevirathne @gayani.bsky.social and published today in Nature - www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Great start of the #CABDseminars 2025/2026 with the talk of Miguel Rodriguez de los Santos! Dr. Rodriguez gave an insight of the studies from his PhD and Postdoc work focused on rate diseases. He was invited by @crisprscan.bsky.social! Thanks for coming Miguel!

Teaching biology in the old days relied on large posters. Often beautiful and poetic art pieces. When a chair of @genevunige.bsky.social dept, in Geneva, we digitalised our huge collection (catalogue raisonné). Why? I dont' know. The strange feeling these things should not disappear. Yet they will.

Congrats to Jonas on the pre-print of his primary thesis work! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

A genome sequence and single-cell atlas of a marine worm species point towards bursts of gene emergence, duplication and loss as the drivers of lineage-specific body traits go.nature.com/4oAI2nf

PRC2 silences genes by adding H3K27me3 at the right spots in the genome. Our model shows how the nucleic acid-binding domain (NBD) of SUZ12 keeps this activity under control, and what happens when you remove it.

Pleased to see this study out, combining experimental work from our lab at the @cbitoulouse.bsky.social, in particular by @nathaliebastie.bsky.social and @beckof.bsky.social, and from Laura Chaptal and @alengronne.bsky.social at IGH Montpellier @cnrs.fr @cnrsbiologie.bsky.social Congrats to all!

Evolution’s eye game is wild, but mollusks take it to another level CRISPR in apple snails gives us a new model to dissect how nature rebuilds complex organs like the camera-type eyes we humans possess It turns out Evolution doesn’t just innovate, it rewinds, remixes, & regenerates rdcu.be/ezw0t

Happy to share our new preprint on lens morphogenesis in ocular organoids. All thanks to Elin Stahl, Miguel Angel Delgado-Toscano, Ishwariya Saravanan, Anastasija Paneva and Jochen Wittbrodt @wittbrodtlab.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Pretty surreal to see my artwork on the cover of Nature Genetics! Big congrats to @julianeg.bsky.social, @stemundi.bsky.social and the others, and thank you Juliane for letting me help bring your research to life visually. www.nature.com/ng/volumes/5...

Thrilled to share that our latest work on marsupial heterochrony is now online at @cp-devcell.bsky.social @cellpress.bsky.social @lab-turner.bsky.social @crick.ac.uk We used scRNAseq to understand the asynchronous progression of developmental programmes in marsupials www.cell.com/developmenta...

our work on the molecular differences between transcription factor isoforms is out now in Molecular Cell! key point: 2/3rds of TF isos differ in properties like DNA binding & transcriptional activity many are "negative regulators" & misexpressed in cancer www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Honored to receive the City Medal 🎖️ of Algeciras, my hometown. Thanks to all group members, past and present, who make our research possible. Also mentors, institutions and funding agencies for support. I hope this will stimulate further generations to follow the path of discovery and innovation.

Ever wondered how sperm are formed? Spermatogenesis is a microscopic marathon that starts in the testes and ends with fully functional sperm! Our new preprint bitly.cx/jC4Qg takes a deep dive into zebrafish spermatogenesis, mapping out every fascinating step. 🧵👇 1/7

Extinction is forever: de-extinction can’t save what we had aeon.co/ideas/extinc...

Francis Collins, the NIH Director for 12 years, led the Human Genome Project and other NIH efforts for 32 years, resigned today. Key words from his resignation letter www.nytimes.com/2025/03/01/u...

As the world of science wakes up to modern fascism, it's worth remembering older generations who stood up for humanity in much harsher circumstances. Jacques Monod worked actively for the resistance in WWII, while pursuing early stages of his research in occupied Paris. @standupforscifr.bsky.social

Congratulations to the new PhD at #CABD: Marta Magri! Dr. Magri presented her PhD work in a wonderful way! Marta's thesis was done with PhD program from University Pablo de Olavide and was supervised by Nacho Maeso (now at @irbio-ub.bsky.social ) !

Thrilled to have shared my mayfly research from @isabelalmudi.bsky.social lab at the #XIIJornadadeBioinformàticaiGenòmica in Lleida, organised by @scb.iec.cat. An inspiring day of brilliant talks and meaningful discussions! #EvoDevo #Bioinformatics #scRNAseq

Our miRNA story is now in @science.org ! We found a microRNA, not a protein, that finally solved a long-standing evolutionary mystery of wing coloration in butterflies and moths. (1/n) www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

In case you missed it, some really cool findings about gene regulation in echinoderms. Including some nice Hi-C maps of sea urchins and sea stars :) Happy to have contributed a little. Big congrats to all, specially to my bench colleague during my thesis times #MartaMagri.

Ever wondered how bats develop wings from their hands? 🦇✨ Check out our new preprint and the thread below! 🤓 👏Big applause to our amazing first authors Magdalena Schindler and Christian Feregrino and thanks to all our co-authors for their help! 🥂 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Happy to share our latest work, together with the Casares lab, studying the outstanding regenerative capabilities of mayflies royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/... @geneticsub.bsky.social @irbio-ub.bsky.social @cabd-upo-csic.bsky.social @sebioldev.bsky.social

Big 🧬 news this week: we have launched the first Joint Program on Evolutionary Medical Genomics. Spearheaded by @mirimiam.bsky.social, Barcelona researchers will study and exploit the vast genomic diversity of life on Earth to enhance precision medicine. Full story in @elpais.com

Oye @larevueltatve.bsky.social que estoy preparando un hilo para convenceros de que sería un acierto llevarnos a @claragrima.bsky.social y a mí para contaros la historia del descubrimiento de los #escutoides. Os garantizamos que no tenemos ningún contrato en exclusiva con “otra gente” y vamos fijo.
