I really had the best time visiting Vilnius University for the Summer School on Neurodevelopment! Wonderful campus, lovely city and great interactions!

And we are saying goodbye to the first postdoc of the #QuattrocoloLab. It will be sad not to have Keagan around anymore, but he is off to another great adventure! It has been a pleasure working with him and I will surely miss our gene network related discussions a lot!

The #QuattrocoloLab has 5 posters at the #FRM2025. We have interneurons, growth cones and Cajal-Retzius cells, going from proteomics to behavior. Stop by in the Development session Tuesday afternoon!

We're hiring! Our lab is looking for a postdoc to investigate the #evodevo of #cephalopod brains. Did you recently graduate, and do you want to join our EU #WEAVE project with the Simakov and @simon-sprecher.bsky.social labs? Find the application form👇Thanks for RT 🐙🦑 www.kuleuven.be/personeel/jo...

A small delegation of the #QuattrocoloLab is @corticodevelopment.bsky.social. We did a lab visit of Taormina this morning and now we are getting ready for the science. We are presenting 4 different projects here, from hippocampal growth cones to MEC development to (obviously!!) Cajal-Retzius cells!

I am looking for a postdoc with an immunology background interested in joining a Yale neuroscience lab to study how the brain controls immunity. At Yale, we have a wonderful interdisciplinary & collaborative #neuroimmune community. Please reach out or share with anyone who might be interested!

An in-house collaboration between the #QuattrocoloLab and the #NigroLab. Beautiful images and very interesting data collected.

It was an absolute honor and pleasure to host today Ileana Hanganu-Opatz for our seminar series. Her work is super inspiring and she was the best guest! @kavlintnu.bsky.social #neuroskyence

Also in Issue 8: ▪️Research Highlights on embryo elongation and skin T cells ▪️Perspective on public engagement in human #DevBio ▪️2 In preprints ▪️Transitions in development interview @gquattrocolo.bsky.social ▪️2 people behind the papers interviews ▪️Development at a glance on stem-cell-based models

It was a real pleasure to host Dr. Huganir @rhuganir.bsky.social today at the @kavlintnu.bsky.social for our seminar series. His work is always groundbreaking and inspirational!

I love this series of articles on @dev-journal.bsky.social! It was an honor to be interviewed for it. #QuattrocoloLab @kavlintnu.bsky.social

So happy to share the second manuscript of the #QuattrocoloLab. This was a side project of a fantastic PhD student, Kristian Moan, that saw something cool in his data and presented it in our annual lab retreat in 2024. Now the whole story sees the light of day. 1/3

The second annual retreat of the #QuattrocoloLab is over. As usual, I was blown away by the presentations and I have so much to think about now!! So many new ideas to test! Thanks to everybody for making it so special.

Here is a flyer to print or email. Thank you very much!

We are still taking applications!

The gang is back together. Our Christmas is safe! @maxnigro.bsky.social

This is absolutely fantastic work!

I agree with everything! I try to cultivate and promote this in the #QuattrocoloLab. And perhaps this is also why I love to study development: it has rooms for all these subfields. But sometimes it is also harder when you don’t perfectly fit in any category.

First post on BlueSky! Biogeography of cortical #fast-spiking GABAergic neurons. We found that most fast-spiking neurons in association cortex do not express PV. Our findings challenge computational models of cortical networks based on PV counting. #neuroscience www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
