Although we didn't make it to a cover, it was so wonderful to work with @mariadiazillus.bsky.social on designing an artwork inspired by our work. Thank you Maria! We love it and will be proudly showing it around. Rover ERV wandering around the chromatin rapped around the moons of the solar system:

Kristina Stapornwongkul is joining IMBA! The Stapornwongkul lab will study how the nutritional environment and metabolic processes influence embryonic development—an emerging research area with broad implications for both fundamental biology and biomedical applications. Welcome, Kristina!

My first blue update! Sharing my most recent illustration in a scientific journal.Thank you to @oliverastone.bsky.social who contacted me to adapt his concept as the cover for his paper in @naturecvr.bsky.social. These are the original design and the journal version!
