Our lab studies fundamental mechanisms in early neurodevelopment and neurodegenerative diseases | @KingsCollegeLon@dev_neuro | Satellite lab at @TheCrick
Always a great pleasure to share what I know with outstanding and super enthusiastic students. Thanks to @mayor_lab for organising this wonderful @EMBO course.
Very excited about this happening at the Crick in Feb. Paired theory-experiment talks are a great way to see how interdisciplinary projects play out. Don't miss it!
📢 Only few more days left to submit an abstract for #INTERPHACE2025 at @TheCrick or get an early-bird ticket! - deadline 13th Dec
Don't miss out on presenting your work in an interdisciplinary environment, network, or maybe even find new collaborators?

Delighted to see this out! A great story by @bcompans and @vimast86 with the help of @Lenherr_C. Nanoscale plasticity of axo-axonic synapses at the AIS. Enjoy!
Happy to see my @MSCActions project with @jbneuro lab available on @biorxiv_neursci
We Increased network activity in vivo and used dSTORM to look at the nanoscale organization of inhibitory synapses formed onto the AIS and onto tufts dendrites of L2/3 S1 Cortex!
Are you interested in the development of the human brain? One postdoctoral position is opened with #WT funds in @RicoLab to investigate the development of inhibitory circuits in the human cerebral cortex.
Experience: Molecular Biology (scRNA seq, RNAseq).

Register for the November Development Presents webinar where I'll be talking about my PhD research from the @HouartLab and all things FOXG1 🦊 @CorinneHouart
ALT Development presents... webinar on Wednesday 20 November 15:00GMT. Featuring BSDB prize winners. Chaired by Marysia Placzek.
Talk 1: Tamina Lebek (The University of Edinburgh) ‘PUFFFIN – Illuminating cellular neighbourhoods in model systems of development’
Talk 2: Callum Bucklow (University of Oxford) ‘Developmental mechanisms of macroevolutionary change in the African Cichlid vertebral column’
Talk 3: Hannah Bruce (University of Liege)
‘A cleaved cytosolic FOXG1 promotes excitatory neurogenesis by modulation of mitochondrial translation – a new therapeutic target for brain disorders’
Talk 4: Stanley Strawbridge (University of Cambridge) ‘Spatiotemporal chromatin binding strategies for transcription factors in pluripotent cells’
Join us tomorrow for this week’s CDN Internal Seminar hosted by @dimvladkost. Our presenters will be @DanaFd@HouartLab and the CDN Green Neuro Team.
🗓️ 1pm, Wednesday 16th October
📍 G8, New Hunt’s House
Interested in Neurodevelopmental disorders and mitochondrial contributions to their pathologies? Apply to do a PhD with Corinne's lab! The project is a continuation of my PhD and I would thrilled to see my science baby be taken over by someone as excited about FOXG1 as I am 😍
Love morphogens? Love evolution? Looking for something to read on a rainy September day? Our review on developmental patterning and the role of morphogens in evolution is out. Great fun to work on this with Lewis Mosby and @amyebowen2
Morphogens in the evolution of size, shape and patterning
In this Review, Lewis Mosby, Amy Bowen and @z_hvas@TheCrick@UCL explore how morphogen-mediated patterning evolve and how theory and experiment can be interwoven to bring new perspectives:
