I fully agree that we should have a step-by-step approach focused on quality, rather than unnecessarily rushing into later stages and creating abnormal tissues. We cannot properly culture human embryos until 14 days and should probably focus on getting the first steps right.

A new call to revise the limit to culture human embryos, currently not allowed beyond 14 days (start of gastrulation) to 28 days nature.com/articles/d41586-0….
There is a general consensus that this should be the case and I agree to and support this proposal. However…..🧵

Have you ever wondered how your back formed? The human embryo makes a neural tube (future spinal cord) and somites (trunk muscle/bone) from ~d20. They’re formed at the same time and place, so we used human Trunk-like Structures (hTLS) to investigate their ‘co-development’… (1/7)

My goal is to understand the regulatory role of every nucleotide in the genome, and how this changes across every cell in the human body.
If you are interested in doing a Ph.D. with me @UMassGCB, see the links below. Deadline is Dec 1st.

Congratulation Laura! Amazing!

I’m thrilled to finally see the main project of my PhD in the @leeboratory out in #NatComms. Congrats to all authors and collaborator @NRivron !
We identified FoxO transcription factors as crucial AKTors in the naïve to formative pluripotency transition.

A big thank you to ERC for selecting my lab for one of this year’s starting grants! This award will enable us to explore the molecular mechanisms of DNA homology search using computational 3D genome models.
5 Sep 2024
Anton Goloborodko (@golobor), Group Leader at IMBA, was awarded a Starting Grant from the @ERC_Research for his research on homology search in DNA repair. Congratulations! #ERCStG
