There are so many better options to save money 🤦♂️ Reduce adminastrative burden ? Reduce constant evaluations ? Or simply trust the scientists to do their job properly... sciencebusiness.net/news/horizon...

En ne donnant pas le brassard de Capitaine à Griezmann on décide de prioriser les stars individuelles au collectif. Ça marche tant qu’on joue contre des équipes sans collectif. Ce soir fut un non match pour nos Bleus. Ça fait mal. Mais l’important c’est le collectif

Merci la RATP! Je cherchais mon pass Navigo pensant qu’il s’agissait d’un contrôle mais c’était pour me donner de l’eau vu les fortes chaleurs. Trop sympa! #metro #ratp #paris #ilfaitchaud
C.H. Waddington's lasting achievements in development and evolution Jonathan B. L. Bard examines some of Waddington's research papers that show why he is one of the few pre-molecular-age developmental biologists still widely remembered and how they remain significant. doi.org/10.1242/dev....
C.H. Waddington's lasting achievements in development and evolution
ABSTRACT. C.H. Waddington (1905-1975) was a British biologist and perhaps the major figure in developmental biology between the 1940s and 1960s. He is one of the few pre-molecular-age developmental bi...

That game was as painful as a faculty meeting! Allez les bleus !
This year a total of 3 (1 current and 2 formers) trainees were accepted in grad schools! Proud moment for the lab! #happyPI

I’m medium well after walking way too much today in burning Paris 🥵🥵🥵
Really nice! COngrats @merlinlange.bsky.social !
🧬 🧪Our RNA velocity benchmark is out in PLOS Comp Biol We tested 5 methods on mouse & zebrafish data. They often disagree (just 1/100 driver genes shared 😬). A hypothesis tool, not ground truth. Open access 👉 doi.org/10.1371/jour... Led by the brilliant Sarah Ancheta (not on bsky)
In this Obituary, Francesca Mariani & Mark Lewandoski write about Gail R. Martin, one of developmental biology's most influential conceptual architects, a scientist who reshaped how we think about signalling, pattern formation & genetic analysis in the mouse. doi.org/10.1242/dev....
Here is the announcement of a Symposium @college-de-france.fr on 26 June on Information Flow and Computation in Biological systems. A great line of speakers on a variety of topics from embryogenesis to neuroscience, immunology and microbiology. Free entrance, come if you are in Paris end of June 🤩
Fantastic !
Can one map the genome-wide binding (1) and its protein partners (2) simultaneously from the same sample? Yes, one can. with CUT&ID ✂️🪪 Spearheaded — singlehandedly — by @annanordin.bsky.social No need of transgenesis, cloning and overexpression. Check it out, it's fast and its works.
Another great reason to come back to Scotland in 2027! Besides whisky…
Save the date! The 2027 BSDB Spring Meeting will take place on 19 - 22 April in Edinburgh. An exciting programme with a fantastic lineup of speakers showcasing developmental biology across scales! More details soon!
Fantastic outreach by @maitrejl.bsky.social et al, who have brought Biology Quest (En Quête de Bio) of the @sfbd.bsky.social to Japan! Want to bring model organisms into your primary schools? See www.eqd-bio.org or contact me or @drosopachea.bsky.social . French, English and other languages!

🔬Des scientifiques au #lfikyoto pour éveiller la curiosité de nos élèves ! Avec « En Quête de Bio », nos élèves se sont glissés dans la peau de scientifiques pour découvrir les mystères du vivant, de la drosophile au poisson-zèbre. Merci @sfbd.bsky.social 💙🤍❤️ @michaelrera.bsky.social #biologie
Big FOMO here! But I know @bardinlab.bsky.social trained @maitrejl.bsky.social very well! Where are the good pictures though??
Today my genome has been copied ~4.8 quadrillion times, I’m going through my ~120th generation of red blood cells, and I’ve traveled 290 billion km through the galaxy. Not a bad run so far. 🧬🚀🥳
Great lecture from Claude Desplan today! Love the signs organization 🤣
Wait! What?!
