Understanding development to understand pathologies
Check out our new review in Reproduction! 💥🥚🔬 In “The explosion of life”, @anitabichisecchi.bsky.social, @petramikec.bsky.social and I explore how live imaging has shaped our understanding of ovulation, revealing the cellular and tissue dynamics that drive egg release. doi.org/10.1093/repr...
We just celebrated with alumni & current members the 25yrs anniversary of our group @ibdm.bsky.social and @centuri-ls.bsky.social. Lots of joy to witness the scientific paths of so many talented ex members. Big smiles, laughs and fun 🤩. So thankful for having had such colleagues. Let’s keep going 😊
Lots of fun and new ideas from our joint lab retreat near Saint-Jurs with @guignardlab.bsky.social, @axonreg2lab.bsky.social, and @raphclement.bsky.social 🙌🏼☀️🛶
Big congratulations to @ibdm.bsky.social’s @ornella-clara.bsky.social and Marc-Eric Perrin for taking home prizes for presenting their work! 🏆🎉
Great time at the @yen-network.bsky.social 26 Conference at @crick.ac.uk, co-organised by our very own @anitabichisecchi.bsky.social 🙌🏼 Fantastic talks, posters, art and conversations all round! 🧬🔬✨
💪 Great pleasure to host @ardemp.bskyverified.social from @scripps.edu this week. 🧪 Fantastic keynote on PIEZO ion channels as essential pressure sensors for touch, pain and beyond. Excellent discussions on proprioception, pain, parturition, mechanobiology, and cell & molecular biology!
A special seminar in Marseille, reuniting with two incredible lab alumni: Aziz Moqrich, my first postdoc, and Bertrand Coste, who identified PIEZOs in my lab. The students brought food from their home countries for lunch. How brilliant!

🧪 We had the pleasure of hosting @steinaerts.bsky.social from @vibneuroleuven.bsky.social as a keynote speaker! 🧬 A fantastic talk on modelling genome regulation using single-cell atlases, with great discussions on gene regulation, modelling and AI, neural development, and atlases.

Avec @shamtlili.bsky.social nous sommes allés à la rencontre d'une classe de CE1 ✨ à #Marseille 15eme. Au programme: observations de tardigrades 💧🐻 et d'autres organismes vivants dans les mousses 🌿🔬 Merci au dispositif #SciencesDansLesClasses et à @ibdm.bsky.social pour le matériel🔬🧪
[PUBLI] Understanding multiciliated cell differentiation remains a challenge A new Xenopus-based model developed by Camille Boutin (@camboutin.bsky.social) et al., from @ibdm.bsky.social provides insights into ciliogenesis and its molecular regulation! 🔗 france-bioimaging.org/announcement...

Christopher Thomas@ovarylab.bsky.social · 4mo agoHow does an ovarian follicle remodel in space and time to release an egg? 💥🥚 We have an exciting PhD project combining follicle culture, advanced imaging and quantitative analysis to understand the cellular dynamics of ovulation. 🔬 Co-supervised by me and @guignardlab.bsky.social. Please share! 🌱

Our institute was delighted to welcome journalists from AJSPI to discuss our research 🧪 We study how organs form — from molecular, cellular and physical building blocks to disease mechanisms affecting the brain, heart, intestine, muscle, reproductive system and pain. Interdisciplinarity is key! 🔬

Happy New Year 2026! This year, Hadi Boukhatmi, Régis Giet and I are delighted to be organising the 36th French Droso Meeting in Brittany, from 5 to 8 October. A great line-up of speakers Mark the date in your diaries ! The meeting website containing all the details will be opening very soon.
March also means Brain Awareness Week — the 28th edition in 2026! 🧠 Our researchers and students visited schools across the Aix-Marseille-Provence area to share how the brain works, explore neurons, and introduce neuroscience careers to pupils from primary school to sixth form. 🏫🔬🙌🏼
