- 🚨 1/ Preprint Alert! Sex determination outcome is conserved across vertebrates (i.e. generating 2 compatible sexes) ♀️♂️ But are the cell types and gene programs behind them conserved too? 🧬 Spoiler: not really 👀 Find out in our new preprint ⬇️ www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
- Congrats on this beautiful work, really exciting work! Curious if you think these same principles apply to other species too, or whether there could be evolutionary distinct aspects to these rules?

- Very happy to see this work finally published! I am truly grateful to all the collaborators who made this work possible, especially @ioansarr.bsky.social, @marisepp.bsky.social, and @kaessmannlab.bsky.social. It’s been a pleasure working with you!
- We are thrilled that our study on the evolution of gene regulation in mammalian cerebellum development – led by @ioansarr.bsky.social, @marisepp.bsky.social and @tyamadat.bsky.social, in collaboration with @steinaerts.bsky.social – is now out in @ScienceMagazine! www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

- How does gene regulation shape brain evolution? Our new preprint dives into this question in the context of mammalian cerebellum development! rb.gy/dbcxjz Led by @ioansarr.bsky.social, @marisepp.bsky.social and @tyamadat.bsky.social, in collaboration with @steinaerts.bsky.social
- 1st #EvoDevOmics meeting🍊 What a terrific team @isabelalmudi.bsky.social @mirimiam.bsky.social @anariesgo.bsky.social @patrialvarezcam.bsky.social @jpascualanaya.bsky.social @phylobrain.bsky.social @fany-real.bsky.social Núria🔥 Nacho and more. What great hosts🥘 @hector-escriva.bsky.social & Steph
- Back in BCN after an great week in Valencia, 1st meeting of #EvoDevOmics network with @mirimiam.bsky.social @anariesgo.bsky.social @evodevogenomeub.bsky.social @patrialvarezcam.bsky.social @jpascualanaya.bsky.social @phylobrain.bsky.social @fany-real.bsky.social @imaeso.bsky.social & Nuria Flames
- We are looking for a Bioinformatician (both graduate and postdoctoral levels) to join our lab. Please help us spread the word about this opportunity! Applicants should submit their motivation letter, full CV and academic record to Juan R. Martínez-Morales: jrmarmor@upo.es
- I'm very excited to finally see this one out in @natneuro.nature.com ! It has been an incredible journey alongside extremely talented people! Thanks to everyone involved and enjoy the reading! 1/n www.nature.com/articles/s41...

- Really happy to join NeuroPSI at Paris Saclay to lead a research group funded by an ERC Consolidator grant #ERCCoG . We'll study the origins of the vertebrate brain using shark embryos. 🦈 🧠 Reach out if you are interested in joining the team 🤍
- Excited to share the final version of our study on Nematostella cell type regulatory programs. Part of our @erc.europa.eu StG project, this was a challenging 5-year effort extraodinarily led by @aelek.bsky.social and @martaig.bsky.social. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

- Nice cerebellum development paper 👀 www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...
- Our latest collaboration with @rongfan8.bsky.social, spatial triomics to investigate myelin and cortical brain development, and demyelination, spearheaded by Leslie Kirby in our lab @ki.se and Di Zhang in Rong's lab! Check it out @nature.com www.nature.com/articles/s41...
- New preprint out! Evolutionarily conserved transcriptional regulators control monoaminergic neuron development. We uncover how ancient regulatory programs orchestrate the neurons that produce serotonin and dopamine across 550 million years of evolution. doi.org/10.1101/2025...
