- New year, new lab member! Shubham Das @shubham-das.bsky.social arrived two weeks ago and he is already imaging. :) whoop whoop! Shubham will explore mechanics of polar lobe formation in spiralian embryos. Welcome!
- First sea stars in our brand new facility at @stanfordhopkins.bsky.social ! ⭐
- We had a great lab outing among the redwoods...such a treasure!
- This postdoc position is still open! Apply if you want to come work with us on asymmetric cell divisions in spiralian embryos! postdocs.stanford.edu/prospective/...
- Job Alert! We are recruiting one postdoc to work on spiralian embryos and their crazy polar lobes. More info about this HFSP-funded position on our website baronelab.org: scroll to the end, click on "this could be you"...start your adventure!
- Brittle stars spawning attempted at the mini-course!
- Students of our mini-course imaging kelp with @brookeweigel.bsky.social!
- Today Pieter and Sebastian @streichan.bsky.social showed the students how to build a light-sheet microscope! 🤯
- First day of our mini-course centered on advanced imaging of marine larvae! Everyone is excited spawning sea urchins! 🤓
- The sea lions are visiting!

- Developmental Biology symposium at Hopkins Marine Station: we had such a wonderful day of brilliant talks and posters!
- Paper alert! We closed the life cycle of the sea star Patiria miniata in the lab! doi.org/10.1002/dvdy...
- Our paper on epithelial dynamics and scutoids in the sea star embryo doi.org/10.1242/dev.... was shortlisted for Outstanding Papers of 2024 prize in @dev-journal.bsky.social! Congrats to co-authors @lmescu.bsky.social, Antonio Tagua and Deirdre Lyons journals.biologists.com/dev/collecti...
- Thank you the editors for this recognition of our work and congratulations to the authors of all shortlisted and winning papers!
- Fun alert! Jana represents the lab at the Hopkins Marine Station Basketball tournament!! All the way to the finals! Whoop whoop!
- Good news alert! We are among the 2025 HFSP awardees! In a fun project developed together with @turlierlab.bsky.social and @chemamd.bsky.social we will study the polar lobe of spiralian embryos. Very excited about the opportunity to explore this unique mode of asymmetric cell division. Stay tuned!
- All ready to capture more marine beauty!
