Our December issue is now live, including global biodiversity monitoring, non-native species and extreme events, single-cell transcriptomics of spider brains, de novo genes, and stripe pattern evolution in rodents. nature.com/natecolevol/vo…

Many exciting PhD opportunities in gene expression/*omics in Goettingen (and yes, also in worms)- take a look 👇

We're looking for a joint postdoc between my crew, EustermannLab, Savitski Lab, and Thomas Quail EMBL Heidelberg If you're comfortable pushing the limits to understand #transcription, #development, and #synbio, get in touch soon! Please RT and spread the word 😀

And here is the place where the positions will be announced stepwise. First 3 are here: euraxess.de/jobs/172414

We are very excited to announce the Platynereis Satellite Meeting at the EuroEvoDevo in Finland. Abstracts can be submitted via the meeting registration. We will prioritize Platynereis abstracts but other annelid friends are welcome to submit and attend. Euro Evo Devo 2024 #WormWednesday

New genomes for Christmas :) Check out our new preprint, featuring the haplotype-phased S. mediterranea assembly, chromosome-scale assemblies of three additional Schmidteas, and the surprising discovery that flatworm genomes appear to evolve without syntenic constraints.

How to image a developing living organism from different sides with a microscope?🐟 🔬 It was a challenge that a team of scientists led by Prof. Jan Huisken faced and it resulted in the invention of light-sheet microscopy! In the clip below, the man himself is telling us the

I am very pleased to see this review published which summarizes some results of Boilly's previous research and its influence on current work with annelid regeneration. Very glad to be part of it. link.springer.com/article/10.100… link.springer.com/collections/ci…
