Happy to share the last preprint of the Bellefroid Lab 🇧🇪@Dev_Gen_Lab on sensory development! This time no Prdm12 in the title (but a bit in the content 👀). Congratulations to @TSzemes for the hard work and deeply grateful to @kristyredhorse for sharing invaluable mouse lines!

iScience - Prdm12 represses the expression of the visceral neuron determinants Phox2a/b in developing somatosensory ganglia. sciencedirect.com/science/ar… Check out our last paper led by former PhD candidate Dr. Simon Vermeiren, with @mayadannawi @simon_desiderio @AlbaSabateSJ

Congratulations to Frédéric Marmigère on his paper just accepted in eLife. We were very happy to contribute data to this nice study on Meis2 and touch...@SchwallerFred elifesciences.org/reviewed-p…

First preprint from the Bellefroid lab (@Dev_Gen_Lab)! We show that G9a is unlikely to mediate Prdm12 function during nociceptor development. (1/5)
Loss of G9a does not phenocopy the requirement for Prdm12 in the development of the nociceptive neuron lineage biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor… #bioRxiv

To be quick, we observed that it is not the case. Nociceptors (and other somatosensory neurons) appear to develop just fine in the absence of G9a... Truth is to be found elsewhere! (5/5)

Check out our latest Preprint. Great work from Sam @fluorescence_SC, We show that the mechanically gated ion channel Elkin1 is required for touch in mice! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

In 2022 Silvia Arber, Martyn Goulding & Ole Kiehn were awarded the Brain Prize. To celebrate their achievements we organised a webinar series on motor control from leaders in the field. In case you missed it you can see them all here: lundbeckfonden.com/the-brain…

Congratulations to Stefan Lechner on this lovely study. There is a long back story to why we made TMEM100 conditional knockout mice. But here Stefan and colleagues show that nociceptor sensitization does not always come from the periphery! nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

Finally out! My PhD work supervised by the twitterless Dr. Cyril Rivat. Have you ever wondered whether the repetition of acute surgeries could lead to anxiodepression and chronic pain comorbidities? Answer is yes. doi.org/10.1016/j.pneurobio.…
