The one and only @mads100tist.bsky.social taking the stage at #ICDB2025 to deliver his award lecture! #devbio #PisoMuchado #zebrafish #2025ICDB #FlamingElmo \m/

PSA: around 5-8% of the population has a color vision impairment for red/green. Many talks at #2025ICDB still use red-green LUTs on slides that are not accessible to everyone. Changing to more accessible colors is doable and easy. We can do better. #devbio #ICDB2025 #WeTheColorBlind

So happy to see all of my #DevBio folks at the #2025ICDB joint meeting with @socdevbio.bsky.social @isdb.bsky.social and the Latin American Society for DevBio in San Juan Puerto Rico! More pics to come! @chrmosimann.bsky.social @mads100tist.bsky.social

Birth defects are the #1 cause of death in the first year of life (🧵). Birth defects kill more than twice as many children as cancer. Birth defects are diseases of developmental biology. Here are CDC statistics for 2021. 1/5 wisqars.cdc.gov/pdfs/leading...

@izfs.bsky.social can you recommend options?
