🔬 New publication from BIOM in Science Advances! How did the vertebrate kidney evolve? Comparing catshark, lamprey & amphioxus embryos, Sylvie Mazan's team & collaborators show the primitive kidney arises from a somitic compartment. 👏 Congrats to all authors! 🔗 www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Le manque d’eau et les fortes chaleurs de cet été ont considérablement ralenti la production des réacteurs. Ironiquement, l’énergie solaire longtemps dénigrée par les défenseurs du nucléaire a bondi et parfois pris le relais. ➡️ https://l.liberation.fr/y6q
Postdoc opportunity in Copenhagen! Interested in marine bioluminescence, comb jellies & experimental biology? A great 2-year postdoc (possibility of 1-year extension), working with CRISPR, imaging & EM in the labs of Anders Garm & Cornelia Jaspers. Deadline: 16.08 jobportal.ku.dk/videnskabeli...

Bien plus qu'un aquarium, le Biodiversarium conjugue découverte et recherche. Les visiteurs y découvrent des espèces méditerranéennes, tandis que les scientifiques étudient des espèces exotiques. 🐠 Le site comprend également un jardin botanique réunissant plus de 500 espèces végétales. 🌺

The course ended successfully today thanks to Daphne-san’s and Sebastien’s great efforts and leadership and to staff members’ generous assistances throughout the course. We are able to tell how excited the students also were from their performances in their presentations and the wrap-up party.
The 14 students from all over the world (organized in 5 groups) have presented the results of their 2-3 days research projects #ascidian developmental biology or coastal ecology) #SHIMBC2026 #Asamushi
Finally Iwasaki-san presenting her research on the impact of major disturbance such as earthquake and tsunami on costal communities #SHIMBC2026 #Asamushi
On day 3 of the marine biology course, Dr. Sebastien Darras from Banyuls Marine Station, France, is teaching a course of developmental biology of ascidians. Good to see students working hard to dissect adults and collect eggs and sperm for fertilization from many different kinds of ascidian species.
We are hosting an international marine biology course here in Asamushi. On day two today, Dr. Daphne Munroe from Rutgers University, USA, is teaching students from many countries in Asia and Europe an introductory coastal ecology course.
I'm recruiting a postdoc and a research assistant in my lab in the south of France for an HFSP-funded project involving choanos. More info: Postdoc: bit.ly/4xxlJTX Research assistant: (EN) bit.ly/4aOwUha (FR) bit.ly/4vcy3av Please share with any potential applicant. Thx!
