Dynamic modelling of human neural crest development using a bioengineered stem cell organoid system https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.64898/2026.05.04.721958v1

I’m beyond happy to share that the preprint summarising my PhD research is now online on bioRxiv! 🚀 I am very grateful to my supervisors, Karen J Liu and Andrea Serio, all the coauthors and members of both teams who have made this work possible.

Congratulations to @carmenmorenogon.bsky.social, @andreaserio.bsky.social, @karenjliu.bsky.social and the rest of the team for developing a great platform for interrogating neural crest behaviour

𝗘𝘅𝗰𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗻𝘁! We developed a powerful system combining a 3D bioprinting and collecting platform with live microscopy. This system allows for precise manipulation of live cultures, including organoid sorting and sampling! Check it out: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

The 2025 Neural Crest and Cranial Placodes GRS has concluded and I am truly honored to have organized this incredible event. Feeling fulfilled and inspired from all the groundbreaking talks and discussions. Congratulations to Anna and Casey, the 2027 chairs! 🎉 Off to prepare for my GRC talk!

I can't believe the 2025 GRS Neural Crest and Cranial Placodes is only 9 days away! ✨ I am beyond excited to learn from all the amazing scientists we will have speaking and for my first-ever GRC talk! Check the full GRS program here: www.grc.org/neural-crest...
