Our mission is to amplify early-career voices, foster collaborations, and help create a research environment that is supportive and welcoming to all. We host symposia and webinars aimed at career guidance, networking, and sharing trainee research. We’re here to help you grow and thrive! 🐠🎊
📣Hello! We are the Young Researcher Committee (YoRC) of EZS/IZFS! 🧬🐟 We’re an international community of graduate students, postdocs, and early-career scientists passionate about connection, collaboration, and opportunity in zebrafish research.
I am delighted, humbled, proud, and grateful to let you know that I became a professor for life today. I am very aware of the privilege that this position now brings to my life. I will do my best to pay forward the kindness and support of the people who got me here.
Our research group leader Daniel Wehner was featured on FrankenFernsehen, sharing insights into his research about spinal cord regeneration in zebrafish (in German only).
Thank you Franken Fernsehen for featuring our work at @mpi-scienceoflight.bsky.social and MPZPM (in german only): www.frankenfernsehen.tv/mediathek/vi...

It's out! Happy to present ITEC, a semi supervised algorithm with an extremely low error rate that can track cells in files of any size (think Terabytes!). We used it in many organisms, including zebrafish, to study how organs form and linked it to gene expression www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... +🧪

After some silence, we will soon be announcing exciting developments, including openings at the postdoctoral and Ph.D. levels. Stay tuned!
The goal of a PhD is not to learn some facts or read a few papers or learn a bunch of techniques. The goal of a PhD is to learn independence, problem solving, how to finish things you start, resilience, & gain the ability to adapt & think creatively. Learning these things is hard.
