What secrets does the amphibian #brain hold? We used single-nucleus sequencing @10xgenomics in #axolotl to find out! Exciting collaboration with Ashley Maynard, Tomás Gomes (@tomsgoms.bsky.social), Jonas (josch1@bsky), Gray Camp, Elly Tanaka and Treutlein lab! biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 🧵👇 1/19

How did #cephalopods develop their extraordinary nervous systems? The answer may lie in their unusual genome, according to postdoc Akane Kawaguchi Akane Kawaguchi, Elly Tanaka & co-first author Hannah Schmidbaur Universität Wien. (1/n) nature.com/articles/s4146…

I am full of joy to see our paper exploring the axolotl telencephalon published in Science Magazine today. What an honor to work together with such a dream team: Ashley Maynard, Tomás Gomes (@tomsgoms.bsky.social), Jonas (josch1@bsky), Gray Camp, Elly Tanaka and Treutlein lab!!!

En route to #ISDB2021 and looking forward to some great developmental biology! Come by Poster 389 (Monday) if you are interested in limb regeneration and what we can learn about tissue engineering from crazy transplantations in axolotls. With collaborator Francisco Falcon🙂


Four posters from Elly Tanaka lab at today’s #ISDB2021 poster session!! For development, evo-geno and regeneration in axolotl and mouse: 🏃♀️🏃🌪 posters 233 (Fernando Becerril), 360 (Francisco Falcon), 365 (Anastasia Polikarpova) and 389 (Leo Otsuki) 🦎🐭🙌

I am very excited to share our latest manuscript on the axolotl nervous system. We established the use of adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) to perform circuit tracing in the axolotl brain and retina: doi.org/10.1101/2024.0… with Elly Tanaka @IMPVienna
