Proud to share what we hope will be a reference study on human oocyte proteostasis. Young-donor eggs show globally reduced organelle activity vs. somatic cells, with an even steeper drop as they mature. 👇 for @zaffagg3 's detailed explanation embopress.org/doi/full/10.10…

Can someone start a journal called “Cell Atlases” so that the rest of the journals can go back to publishing interesting things?

It was amazing to participate in #PeopleinRed fundraiser gala, as a guest of the mayor of Barcelona! A lovely reminder that science reaches far beyond the lab -- EB

Thank you to organisers Lydia Finley @lydfinley and Wilhelm Palm @WilhelmPalm and everyone who joined us at this week's Workshop on 'Revisiting Metabolic Fundamentals' biologists.com/workshops #BiologistsWorkshops

Honored to receive a La Caixa Junior Leader Fellowship @BecariosFLC at @CRGenomica. This recognition will support our research on oocyte dormancy and proteostasis for the next 3 years🥚! Big thanks to previous funders @EMBOFellows & MSCA @EU_Commission and to @LabBoke @the_prbb

It was a tough #poster design session last night! 😆 Next week I'll be at the @EMBO #conference "Structure and function of the cytoskeleton" in #Paris, where I'll present the actin-dependent regulation of our favorite endolysosomal super-organelles in #oocytes. If you're interested in how endolysosomal transport depends on #actin in the acentrosomal mouse oocyte, come visit me at poster 199 in session 4, on Thursday! 100% #cat-approved design! 🤪

The Frenster Lab is here! 🍾 I am so excited to start my #EmmyNoether funded group at @UniFreiburg this summer. Our group studies #CellCompetition dynamics during embryonic development using #gastruloids from multiple species. FrensterLab.com

12 days left to apply! @LabBoke @CRGenomica @the_prbb See here: recruitment.crg.eu/content/j…

Securing two group leader positions at the same institute is no small feat.  From IMP postdocs to group leaders: Laura Lorenzo-Orts and Ulrich Hohmann started their labs at IMB Mainz this year: imp.ac.at/news/article/from-…

Three more weeks to apply and join us in Barcelona! Help us understanding how oocytes regulate proteostasis and fertility! Find here more detailed information on the call: recruitment.crg.eu/content/j… Please spread around your communities!

🚨 You have two more days to submit your abstract for #EESSexDifferences. Don't miss this opportunity! The deadline is 28 January 👉 s.embl.org/ees26-07-x This brand new symposium will highlight a range of topics, including sex hormone regulation of health and immunity, genetic differences that lead to disease, and mosaicism. 📢 EMBO | EMBL Symposium 'Sex differences in health and disease' 🗓️ 27 – 30 April 📍 EMBL Heidelberg and Virtual

How to tackle emerging questions in cellular organisation, adaptation, and robustness? To find out, join the EMBO | EMBL Symposium 'Cellular mechanisms driven by phase separation'! 🧬🦠 The meeting will bring together scientists from cell biology, biophysics, biochemistry, molecular biology, structural biology, developmental biology, polymer physics, and soft matter physics to study condensates in biology and disease. #EESPhaseSeparation Whether you are returning, or new to the community, we hope you can join us next year! 📅 19 – 22 May 2026 📍 Heidelberg and Virtual 👉 Submit your abstract by 10 Feb 2026: s.embl.org/ees26-08-x

It was a pleasure to open the Spanish Society for Reproduction’s @ASEBIRreprod annual congress this morning! #XIIICongresoASEBIR - EB

This is next week! Women biology & health workshop with a mix of experts from medicine and basic sciences - join us if you’re in Barcelona :) - EB

Oh wow - pre-made templates to share :) - EB I’m happy to present my latest research during Plenary II at the ISSCR 2026 Annual Meeting, taking place in Montréal, Canada on 8-11 July 2026. #ISSCR2026 invt.io/1txb7uh48oo @ISSCR

Hypothesis: cava tour and tasting improves team spirit Result: confirmed ✅ Add in games, lunch, and hiking = one unforgettable lab retreat! 🏞️🍾

🚨JOB ALERT🚨 PLEASE SPREAD and RT We are building a small expert team within the @LabBoke at @CRGenomica @the_prbb to investigate fundamental questions in oocyte cell biology, focusing on how proteostasis regulation influences dormancy and fertility. See below 2 calls👇
