I am very happy to announce that the Echinox Lab will open in the BIOM unit at @obs-banyuls.fr in January 2026!! 🥳 We will use several echinoderm species to study animal body plan evolution. 🔽 Check our brand new lab website if you want to learn more about our future research www.echinox.org

Happy to share my last paper from my PhD work with the Deeva team! We establish new tools in European amphioxus: fertilized egg microinjection, F0 CRISPR/Cas9 mutagenesis & show Ascl1/2.1 is required for epidermal sensory neurons formation in amphioxus. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

🚨🚨🚨 Please RT! We're looking for a postdoc to join an exciting joint project between our lab @upf.edu & @crg.eu (Barcelona) and the Sander lab @mdc-berlin.bsky.social (Berlin) investigating how alternative splicing and microexons influences the maturation of pancreatic islets. Deadline: 30/09/25👇

We have a new website at #BIOM. It is still young, but after many years, we are now visible in the net!!!! biom.obs-banyuls.fr.

If you like snowflakes, check our new preprint about axial patterning in brittle stars ⭐ We looked at the expression of anteroposterior patterning genes in Amphipholis squamata juveniles, and compared it with existing data from other classes www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... @lowelab.bsky.social

Job alert! We are seeking a research technician and lab manager to join our lab and an ERC funded project. If you'd like to work with beautiful insects in beautiful Barcelona, don't hesitate and contact us: www.mayflyecoevodevo.com/joinus

Happy to share our Slow cooked work together with @mcgregorlab.bsky.social, @posnienlab.bsky.social , @nuneslab.bsky.social sky.social and Saad Arif and the collaboration of @maikekittelmann.bsky.social, Fernando Casares & @laurensr.bsky.social and many other friends rdcu.be/d8whP
