How to fix a broken #heart 💔->❤️ #Proteoglycan rich #ECMatrix scar tissue is laid by migratory cells after a cardiac scratch wound with #hiPSC #Cardiomyocytes. Happy #Fluorescencefriday #BlueSky & #CardioSky! @ablanchasensio.bsky.social 👀 #Science 💥🧪 #Microscopy 🔬
With Christmas just around the corner, it’s time for the #FluorescenceFriday post🎄! This week, we’re featuring a hiPSC reporter line engineered to express 2 fluorescent proteins—located in the nuclei and actin filaments of #hiPSCs, generated using STRAIGHT-IN Dual🧪🔬 @benjaminbjohnson.bsky.social?
There are so many #morphogenesis researchers here! My first starter pack is full! Here is Part 2: go.bsky.app/K6YYKeC #devbio #cellbio #science Tell me if I should add you but try to make sure, that you're not already in Part 1. I cannot cross-reference everyone 😅 Part 1: go.bsky.app/RzDD9or
New starter pack for all people interested in Gene Editing & Gene Therapy 🧬✂️ including Tools & Delivery|CRISPR-Cas|Zinc finger nucleases|Viral vectors|Non-viral delivery methods go.bsky.app/8R4dVez
Created a starter pack focusing on disease modeling in a dish using stem cells! 🧪🔬 Please (self)nominate anyone you think should be added to the list and repost so it finds the right people ❤️ hPSC Disease Modeling: go.bsky.app/EpWsxNG For a good general stem cell pack go here: go.bsky.app/UTW4d7b
Working on a #StarterPack to collect researchers using human biology-based tools ( #organoids, #microphysiologicalsystems, other human-derived #invitro tools) + computational models & the orgs & accounts that promote non-animal science. Small so far, but I'm new here. Msg to add. go.bsky.app/SVWGwgu
Dedicating this #Fluorescencefriday to the #ECMatrix lovers. Was trialing some ECM staining methods on a scratch wound and love the HABP staining looking almost like flames 🔥🧪🔬 Lets see what you got, @ablanchasensio.bsky.social 😉
Here is my 2nd #FluorescenceFriday post! 🧪 #hiPSCs expressing jRCaMP1b, a genetically-encoded Ca2+ indicator 👻. This reporter allows us to record intracellular Ca2+ in hiPSC-derived #cardiomyocytes and cardioids (videos in the comments) #microscopy 🔬 #Science #Biology @benjaminbjohnson.bsky.social
My colleague @benjaminbjohnson.bsky.social has just created a starter pack for hPSC disease modeling. Check it out! 🧪🧫

🔥Super excited to drop our recent preprint🔥 biorxiv.org/cgi/content/... Here, we automated the generation of 3D Cardiac Microtissues and performed a small high-throughput screen to identify several novel anti-arrhythmic compounds for CPVT1 🧪❤️ #Cardiosky #Science #hiPSC #Arrhythmia #Stemcell
We designed MS2 and PP7 binding coat proteins that are degraded in cells except when bound by their hairpin RNAs. You can check out our pre-print here: tinyurl.com/27p7hyt9, and listen to a Google AI-generated podcast on it here: notebooklm.google.com/notebook/d71...
Hey #BlueSky! Here is my first #FluorescenceFriday post! This cardiac organoid was derived from #hiPSC and imaged using light sheet #microscopy 🔬. 🔵 Cardiomyocytes 🔴 Endothelial cells 🟡 Fibroblasts More coming next week! 🧪 #Science #Biology #CellBiology #SciArt @benjaminbjohnson.bsky.social
Still a few spots left in the Mammalian Synthetic Biology starter pack!🧪
Please share! Here is a starter pack dedicated to Mammalian SynBio! It is still incomplete so if you would like to be added/removed please let me know! go.bsky.app/SsxHKoV
I thought it would be a good idea to create a starter pack for Engineered Living Materials so the community can grow and post in this platform. Please share and feel free to contact me or comment if you want to be added (or removed)! go.bsky.app/EKRq4zp
Hello #BlueSky! Figured my first post had to be a #FluorescenceFriday 🧪 I work on #hiPSC cardiac disease modeling ❤️ Image shows the initial collision and fusion of a #Cardioid (right) with a blood vessel organoid (left) as part of a fun collaboration with @mvilacuenca.bsky.social!

I am really enjoying the surge of people to bluesky but still kind of missing the VERY early career group of people! (Aging in academia is a funny thing) - I went ahead and made this starter pack go.bsky.app/Jq8YaQM - if you would like to be removed/added please let me know
I love how the scientific community here is growing. Here, I started a list of regenerative biologist: go.bsky.app/MGXL9Ra
