- This is an amazing opportunity for students and postdocs to learn new ideas and techniques at the intersections of biology/physics/AI. This course was transformative for me and my students! Summer in beautiful Santa Barbara as a bonus.
- Feb 1 deadline approaching for our @kitp-ucsb.bsky.social QBio summer course on Physical Principles of Morphogenesis in Plants and Animals. @streichan.bsky.social @maurazimmermann.bsky.social @maizel-lab.org @yusuke-mori.bsky.social @akankshi.bsky.social @nicolettapetridou.bsky.social

- What a glorious day--waking up to see this lovely preprint that does it all--a comprehensive scRNAseq atlas of leaf development, hints at the txn of new cell types, and great hypotheses about how GRNs may differ among related TFs (and in other news, some hope for American Democracy)

- Reposted by Dominique BergmannMy new @science.org editorial on the role of scientists in defending democracy is out today. As authoritarianism takes hold in the US, we must fight for the democratic principles that enable a free society and scientists have a key role. I hope you'll join us. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
- One of my absolute favorite meetings! Attendees--please do ask me about CoB and the journal Development. Our community has strong advocates there.

- Reposted by Dominique BergmannA Summer reading recommendation: new primer in @dev-journal.bsky.social explains how dynamical systems theory unlocks the logic of developmental patterning Everything from bistable switches & oscillators to phase portraits & more with Python code to explore journals.biologists.com/dev/article/...
- Wow, what a spectacular workshop! People, place and prospect of deep conversations that could guide the next decade of inquiry.
- Reposted by Dominique BergmannWe received 80 abstracts and have >100 registered participants for the Mech. of Plant Development FASEB (Aug 24-28 in Southbridge MA USA). Time for us to select ~20 talks from those 😱 It will be an exciting meeting! FOMO? Still time to register! → tinyurl.com/24fsjq6a
- Reposted by Dominique BergmannMeasuring properties of individual cells in relation to their neighbors in 3D tissues is challenging. @cellysally.bsky.social &co develop a computational toolkit to facilitate this, analyzing developmental patterning in mouse, chick & #Drosophila #embryo @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/4lQMeNu

- Reposted by Dominique BergmannVery smart, high ROI initiative from the Spencer Foundation. Providing bridge funding for canceled NSF grants: 1) directs funds to projects already screened by a top-noch review process. 2) avoids imposing proposal prep costs on researchers. 3) ameliorates the disruption from GOP sabotage.

- As scientists, we are at our best when being open to new fields and information. Much as I'd rather dig into the latest imaging advances or cell fate concepts, my most useful learning rn is from accessible legal writing from former HHS GC @sbagen.bsky.social esp.
