Noor Singh of Kacy Gordon’s lab just gave an ✨ AMAZING ✨ talk at #TAGC24 on the role of Rac signaling in preventing cell fragmentation during migration. Check out their preprint here: doi.org/10.1101/2023.1…

What can mothers in science do? Everything! For #IWD2024, our team made a trend video to break stereotypes and celebrate #MothersInScience! Share widely to raise awareness! 🎦shorturl.at/dhkHQ #WomenInSTEM #WomenInMedicine #BreakTheBias

When your day starts w/ sharing cute puppy photos and ends w/ engaging exploration of hypothetical explanations for an exciting phenotype, you know you've found good coworkers. Principles of Tissue Mophogenesis Lab best lab 🐟

Really excited to present the results of a great collaboration with the lab of Ophir Klein! 😃 A truly interdisciplinary effort, led by Neha and Pengfei, that reveals how tissue pressure sets the main tooth signaling center. Out today in Nature Cell Biology ➡️ nature.com/articles/s4155…

Study (N=163) finds women professors did 75% of internal service work; men 25%. Women viewed it as compliance or an investment; men dodged with evasiveness or used barter. Yet men did 50% of external service work. Nanna Mik-Meyer kifinfo.no/en/2024/03/wom…

So happy to share the final version of this manuscript with you all! Live today in Current Biology. Free access here: authors.elsevier.com/a/1ivyP3QW8S6E…

Scientific Achievement Unlocked! My science has been covered in The New York Times by Carl Zimmer! He did a wonderful job highlighting these two recent papers that independently contribute to our understanding of the extreme radiation tolerance of tardigrades. nytimes.com/2024/04/12/sci…

Our lab is in search of one or two enthusiastic individuals to serve as lab technicians. Our lab uses Drosophila to study cell adhesion, cytoskeletal regulation, and Wnt signaling in development and in diseases such as cancer RT 1/4

We are delighted to announce our second cohort of Pathway to Independence Fellows, with whom we will be working over the next year as they look for their first independent position. Find out more about these eight talented postdocs: journals.biologists.com/dev/pages/pife…

The frequency of use of the word "unqualified" in student reviews of women teaching engineering is so high compared to that for both men and women in other disciplines that it barely fits on the graph. Lads, do you really think unqualified women get to teach tech at universities?

That amazing paper you spent years on? That amazing breakthrough you had? Very likely you built this following the work of others (very few exceptions), just as others will build off yours. Science is a continuum. Want to leave a lasting legacy in science? Be generous & be kind.

Wonderful gift from Mehershad Wadia to everyone in the lab. Life is a roller coaster 🎢🔬🤓 ❤️ Thank you Mehershad! 🙏

We are thrilled to share our first manuscript! A proteoglycan Versican helps the swollen hyaluronate in ECM accumulate & swell more for inner ear canal morphogenesis. The transcription factor Lmx1b promotes the synthesis of this sugary matrix! Yusuke Mori & Sierra's hard work 🙏

#NewPI milestone achieved! Proud to present the first manuscript from our team biorxiv.org/content/10.110… #ECM #tissuemorphogenesis #zebrafish #devbio

We are actively recruiting a postdoc to study neurovascular interactions in the lab. The job posting is now live (jobs.rutgers.edu/postings/227452). Please RT and don't hesitate to reach out directly to me! #zebrafish

I’m so excited to share the final version of a paper by GMB student Noor Singh on the Rac pathway in maintaining cellular integrity online now at Current Bio! Pu Zhang 张溥 and recent grad Karen Li round out the team. 1/3 cell.com/current-biolog…
