And it begins! Interrogating of NCC development in dasyurid marsupials 🤩 Mid-gestation dunnart embryo visualized with DAPI and SOX10 probe, thanks to @HCRimaging.

Incredible work!

Happy to see JiSoo Park’s work on mouse neural tube organoids published journals.biologists.com/dev/… 👏🎉!! Not quite a #SyntheticEmbryo… but still impressive display of the self-organization capacity of stem cells. Check out the neural crest cells that emerge from these organoids!

We use single cell transcriptomics to define the cell fate choices during early limb development. We find that ectodermal BMP signalling is necessary for formation of the forelimbs!

🚨 1st solo author paper alert 🚨
I discuss how marsupials possess distinct heterochrony in their craniofacial patterning, and how comparative studies with mice can be leveraged to learn more about mammalian skull development and evolution

The talented @Laura__Cook has generated a new, high-resolution developmental series of a new marsupial model, The Fat-tailed Dunnart. See our study below!

Our paper on a staging series for the fat-tailed dunnart just came out in Nat. Comms. Biology. Beautiful and important work by the talented @Laura__Cook. nature.com/articles/s42003-0…

In this photo, I'm holding a beautiful black-footed ferret cloned from 32-year-old cells! After 7.5 years of work with amazing partners, there are no words to describe how it feels to share this world first. Read about her journey in the NY Times: nytimes.com/2021/02/18/scien…

HIRING! Massively excited to advertise an @arc_gov_au funded postdoc position through @cabahCoE, working alongside @GlobEcoFlinders , 3 yrs full time: tinyurl.com/39prkntm.
If you're not in Australia, let's chat first (link in ad). This one might be tricky to do remotely.

Amongst a busy christmas, wedding and thylacine paper, this little review also came out! Here @Smith_CraigA and I examine the mechanisms underlying vertebrate limb morphogenesis and how the emu has evolved tiny vestigial wings 🐂🐖🐁🦘🐓
