Big congrats @marie_van_dijck for obtaining a PhD fellowship @FWOVlaanderen ! Well done!!

Meeting alert! Join us for our Autumn Meeting on Glia! This 2day meeting at Embuild, Diepenbeek, will be all about astrocytes, microglia, myelinating and non-myelinating glia. Register at bscdb.be/autumn-meeting before October 11!

Please retweet! Last week to submit an abstract for @CSHL meeting "Molecular Mechanisms of Neuronal Connectivity", new deadline July 10th. It's a great line up of keynote speakers, with lots of opportunities to give a short talk! @dacolon @CathyFlyMom meetings.cshl.edu/meetings.a…

The octoteam is getting ready for #EED2024 🐙✈️🇫🇮 @EveSeuntjens @alielagoz95 @LanoizeletMaxe1 @MarkLassnig @marie_dijck

Congrats, Tania! Beautiful work including a detailed spectrographic analysis of pup ultrasonic vocalizations. I particularly like the call cluster approach you applied. Well done. Thankful for this fruitful collaboration - @SeuntjensLab/ @Wohrlab from @BiolPsychol @PPW_KULeuven.

Time is now to showcase your organoid work! Five days left to submit your abstract to our Spring Meeting “Focus on organoids”, taking place in Leuven in de Hoorn on June 7th. Register on bscdb.be/spring-meeting -organised by @neuroliege @EveSeuntjens @AdrianRanga1 @PierreuxC

Are you looking for a postdoc in genomics, color patterns, speciation, or genetic diversity of African cichlids? 🐟 Get in touch if you would like to apply for an @MSCActions @HorizonEU postdoctoral fellowship to join my lab @KU_Leuven @BiologyKULeuven

Happy to announce my newest preprint on the early life cellular heterogeneity of the fantastic teleost model the African Turquoise killifish. Special thanks to @SeuntjensLab @ArckensLab

We are halfway through the first ever Cephalopod Neuroscience Conference at the MBL. Over 200 participants. What an amazing expansion of new research. #cephneuro. sites.google.com/view/cephne…

Very excited to be part of the #CephNeuro2024 at the inspiring campus of @MBLScience! 4 days to learn about and present our state of the art research on alien brains 🐙

Check out our updated single cell atlas of Nematostella, by @AlisonCole: doi.org/10.1186/s12983-024-0… It was completely remapped on the new chromosome scale genome and gene annotation (PMID: 38092765), but also contains new data and analyses. Great work, Alison!

My first independent review about ctenophores and the evolution of nervous system 😎onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… Many thanks @Ferdix and Cedric Finet for the invitation!! And @JoanJSoto for awesome ctenophore pictures!! @BristolBioSci

Very proud of Prof Lut Arckens, head of Neuroplasticity and Neuroproteomics @ArckensLab who has been awarded the Collen Francqui Chair 2023-24 by VUB/UZB UMCOR, and held a very inspiring inaugural session yesterday! 👏🧠 @KU_Leuven @SET_KULeuven @leuvenbrainins1.

Hey folks, we got a neuroscience faculty position open in my department. Looking for someone working on mechanisms underlying neurological disorders. Please RT.

Are there multi-or pluripotent stem cells in anthozoans? This great work by #andreasdenner and other lab members shows that nanos2 is essential for the germline. Transgenic nos2 cells give rise also to somatic cell types in #Nematostella: biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor…

1. Current Biology did it again 2. What a great ( and weird) example when gene expression != proteins

Our paper on the octopus genome made the cover @GeneticsGSA G3! 🐙 Congrats to my mentee @daliladest, and the @cnag_eu and @EveSeuntjens teams. Photo courtesy of David Stohlmann! academic.oup.com/g3journal/a…
