Had such a great time working with the best undergrad this summer! So proud of Rachel’s impressive new HCR skills (below)! Sad she’s going back to class/can’t be in lab full time this fall, but am very lucky she’s going to continue working with me on our pronephric adventures 🐟

Phenomenal honors thesis on lateral lines and neural crest by @PrinceLab_UofC wondergrad Noel and amazing work on shark lateral lines by Coates lab wondergrad Marco! An honor to have worked with these two. Go #teamlateralline

Congratulations to Prince Lab postdoc @parahsaramore on her latest publication looking at how Vangl works in the pulmonary mesenchyme to form lung sacculi! Another great reminder that development is beautiful :)

So pleased to announce that the first chunk of my graduate work is out now in @Dev_Cell 🫁🐭🔬 here we investigated the role of the planar cell polarity complex in lung sacculation, identifying a PCP-independent role for Vangl in the pulmonary mesenchyme authors.elsevier.com/c/1isRC…

And it’s a wrap! @UChicago and @MBLScience’s first Mini embryology course, led by our very own @Lab_VPrince and Nipam Patel finished its two week debut today. Here’s to our amazing instructors and all flies, butterflies, zebrafish, squids, chicks and anemones!

Hot off the press- new work led by our latest graduate Manny Rocha, looking at how trunk neural crest migration is regulated! 1/n
20 Aug 2021
I am thrilled to see the thesis work of recent Prince Lab graduate Manny Rocha out in Developmental Biology authors.elsevier.com/a/1dcF%…

6/n the environment matters, but only sometimes, it seems. Elegant cell transplantation studies showed that Cdx4 activity was not required in the somitic mesoderm for proper crest migration

n/n in summary, this work shows that in #zebrafish (like other vertebrates) the head is not like the trunk, and it’s specification and migration are controlled by distinct genes- like cdx4!

5/n: confocal microscopy reminded us that development is beautiful, but also revealed that Cdx4 deficient zebrafish show aberrant trunk crest migration. Specifically, the ‘leader’ cells lose their identities (politics much?):
