📢Only 21 days remain to register for THE #developmentalbiology #conference in Europe, the V4SDB Meeting 2025, that will take place on the 5th-7th September 2025 in 🇸🇰⛰️! Join us: v4sdb2025.img.cas.cz/registration-a… #morphogenesis #stemcells #evodevo #organoids #modeling #embryogenesis

The V4SDB conference commences tomorrow but we are already there for the workshops ! #V4SDB Meeting 2025 #StaráLesná

Some of our colleagues arrived yesterday to attend the amazing two-day Young Developmental Biologist Workshop, a Round table on the use of Artificial Intelligence in research, and of course some social networking! #V4SDB2025 #conference #developmentalbiology #evodevo

Meet fascinating Jakub Harnoš Harnos_Lab from Masaryk University Masaryk University with his talk Wnt-Notch Crosstalk and Its Impact on Embryonic Epidermis Development Using Xenopus #V4SDB2025 #conference #developmentalbiology #evodevo #morphogenesis

The poster session is ongoing! Join us to enjoy wonderful data and share experiences with your colleagues! #V4SDB2025 #developmentalbiology #evodevo #organoids

Haha, this is what happens when a Xenopus scientist goes to an Indian party! 😅 #frogpower

Early Career Opportunity, CDB, UCL Mentorship, world-class facilities, and a supportive environment. We are particularly interested in researchers in Synthetic Dev. Biol. Mechanobiology and AI approaches. #AcademicJobs #EarlyCareerResearcher #UCL #DevelopmentalBiology

This week’s #PhotographerFeature is Khristian V. Valencia with this image of the Colombian Four-eyed Frog. During droughts, this little guy buries itself & waits for rain. Then it emerges to breed in temporary pools when the rains come. #conservationphotography #FrogFriday

The first publication is out! Thanks for this collaboration, Anirban! Xenopus is a very suitable model for these studies! #frogpower

Today I start the first lecture of my course Developmental defects at Masaryk University 🎓 My favorite part: to show how scientists in Mexico 🇲🇽 in 18–19th century were sometimes ahead of European colleagues, who were the “flagship” of science at that time. John Wallingford

Side hustle level-up! My book, IN THE BEGINNING, will be published by HarperOne in 2027! It's about the human embryo, how it gets built, and what it means for where we come from and where we're going. HarperCollins @socdevbio #devbiol #scicomm

🇲🇽 Hola, buenos días from México! The VI Neurobiological Conference has just kicked off. Excited to step out of my comfort zone and represent not only our lab at Masaryk University, not only Brno, not only Czechia… but maybe even Europe! 🌍 Greetings from the heart of Mexico!🧠

Just wrapped up my first-ever poster presentation in BOTH English & Spanish 🎉 A truly fantastic experience! Learned that it’s not the poster itself that matters, but how we speak about science 🧪✨ Viva México! 🇲🇽

Prof. Sir John Gurdon (1933-2025). It is with great sadness that I share the news of the death of a father of the Xenopus field, Professor Sir John Gurdon. xenbase.org/xenbase/doNews… #science #devbio #xenopus #frogs

For all Xenopus lovers: the CSHL Xenopus Course is coming in 2026! 🐸 Led by the awesome Peter Walentek & 🐸Rachel🐸Miller🐸. Don’t miss it! 💪 #frogpower

Just finished an amazing EMBO Lab Leadership course! 50% of my excitement comes from the inspiring lecturers Aiden and Petra, and the other 50% from meeting 14 brilliant young PIs — the next generation of leading scientists in Europe.

It’s my greatest pleasure to co-organize this event! 🚀 PIs from Brno: come join us and see what this supportive initiative is all about! 🙌 #BrnoScience #YoungPIs #Networking

🚨Join us today! We are looking forward to seeing you there! 🌎 Emms SACNAS

It’s fantastic to meet Oded Rechavi at my home institution! 🔥 Great chat about his work on the Dead Sea Scrolls, where his team used DNA analysis to reveal that some fragments came from different animals and regions — rewriting what we thought we knew about the oldest Bible.
