Incredibly proud and happy for @sandehaan.bsky.social , my former PhD student, who has won the Award for Best PhD thesis in Swedish Developmental Biology 2023-2025, from @swedbo.bsky.social (the Swedish Developmental Biology Organization)! Congratulations!! www.swedbo.se/2026/05/08/w...

"Why is publishing so expensive?" It's a question I hear all the time, so we at @biologists.bsky.social thought we'd try to dispel some of the myths around publishing economics & provide transparency around our costs. Today, we publish editorials in all 5 of our journals - links in the thread below.

Fun fact: A “Lord of the Flies” type thing actually DID happen…to a bunch of young boys of color (AHEM!) from Tonga… …and they did NOT devolve into violence and mayhem. They created their own rules and took care of each other until they were rescued by a fisherman over a year later!

Apply! It's a great experience and you get to meet very cool people. Let me know if you want to know more 🧪

First paper from the lab is now online @natneuro.nature.com ! We mapped injury induced enhancers in the mouse CNS and decoded their sequence architecture. Little 🧵 rdcu.be/eSQi1

NEW: Children faced more risk of rare heart problems after Covid-19 infection than they did after taking the Pfizer/BioNTech mRNA vaccine, a big three-year study of under-18s in England has found. Important evidence for debates over vaccine safety, particularly in the US. www.ft.com/content/231d...

📣 I am excited to announce that I have joined the MBB department at Karolinska Institutet in Stockholm as an assistant professor. See below for more details! #wearehiring
