- Wow! I just learnt about annual killifish development and was amazed! Great opportunity at EMBL HD!
- We are searching for an enthusiastic scientist to join our team and establish annual killifish as a model system for early developmental biology and biophysics! @embl.org @embldbunit.bsky.social Apply here: embl.wd103.myworkdayjobs.com/EMBL/job/Hei... Please re-post 🙏
- Day 11 of #LISH25 Not everyone in the pic but wanted to give a big shout out to the stars of the course. The amazing students that survived us and went home with amazing data! @olafselchow.bsky.social @olafselchow.bsky.social @bundschuhst.bsky.social @paveltomancak.bsky.social
- Super happy and honoured to have been able to share once with these guys in love with microscopy #LISH25 Dresden will always feel like home. @ereynaud.bsky.social @mpi-cbg.de @paveltomancak.bsky.social @olafselchow.bsky.social @bundschuhst.bsky.social
