Very excited to finally share my PhD! 🎉 Our paper, “Neuronal microexons modulate arousal via the cAMP-PKA-CREB pathway in zebrafish,” is now published in Science Advances. Many thanks to all of my co-authors, and especially to @mirimiam.bsky.social! 📄 www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

1/11 Excited to share my postdoc work from @schierlab.bsky.social and Rainer Friedrich! 🐟👃 How does the brain decide whether an odor is good or bad? In larval zebrafish, we find that odor preference is reflected in spatially cohesive neuronal domains of the olfactory bulb. 🧵

Two brain circuits. Same learning problem. Shared learning outcomes. Different dynamical implementations. Our work shows that learning is not a single canonical solution but can emerge through distinct population dynamics shaped by circuit architecture. Excited to share our latest preprint! 🧵1/12

From fate to form: the journey to whole-embryo spatial transcriptomics In this 'Behind the paper' feature, @yinanwan.bsky.social shares the inside story of an ambitious journey with @schierlab.bsky.social & co. thenode.biologists.com/from-fate-to...

Very grateful to everyone who made this work possible. I feel incredibly lucky to have worked with such an amazing team. Special thanks to: Jakob El Kholtei, KJ Jenie, @mcolomerr.bsky.social, and of course our wonderful collaborator Bogdan Bintu and my mentor @schierlab.bsky.social

I'm thrilled to announce that I'll be starting my lab as a SNSF starting grant professor at the Center for Integrative Genomics in Lausanne! I'm looking for PhD students who are fascinated about the neuronal basis of behaviour across species @fbm-unil.bsky.social

🔥 Piping hot; fresh from the oven! Fever-like conditions accelerate immune cell speed and efficiency through thermoregulation of actomyosin contractility. Congrats to Ivan Company-Garrido, @alempheius.bsky.social, and @mcolomerr.bsky.social on this huge collaborative effort.

Ever wonder what happens to immune cells when we get a fever? Exicted to share our paper showing that temperature regulates immune cell migration via myosinII! A wonderful collaboration with Ivan, @alempheius.bsky.social, @valeriaventurini.bsky.social & all co-authors! bit.ly/48XRVGj

Are you interested in a PhD in the area of "Mechanisms of translational control during embryogenesis?" Apply now for a PhD @mpi-cbg.de! Overview of all participating RGLs: imprs.mpi-cbg.de/5761/researc...

Thrilled to share 🎉 I’m starting my lab at University of Zurich, DMLS as Assistant Professor (tenure track) from Jan 2026! The Neural MorphoGenomics & Developmental Dynamics Lab will be exploring how genes + morphogenesis shape brain development with organoids, imaging & spatial genomics 🧠🔬🧬
