How do #jellyfish sting? Research from Ahmet Karabulut (Gibson Lab) explains. bit.ly/3LVnlPX #innovation #discovery

We upgraded Stella’s molecular toolkit w/ not just 1 or 2 but 6 KIs painting multiple cellular components. Congrats Alexandre Paix, who led this exciting endeavor w/ Soham Basu &Peter and continuous collaboration w/ Rajwinder Singh & Prevedel Lab! #EMBL doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2…

Thrilled to share a preprint of Shuonan He's final thesis chapter demonstrating a molecular basis for segment polarity in the sea anemone Nematostella. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

It is so exciting!! I’m honored to be awarded the 2023 Emerging Research Organisms Grant from SDB Society for Developmental Biology. I’ll use the grant to achieve the microinjection of shRNA in the rice coral 🪸 Montipora capitata👩🏽‍🔬,@womensinscience Stowers Institute Gibson Lab

So excited to see this paper come out! We show a single gene controls the development of the harpoon in stinging cells (nematocytes) and suggest harpoon morphology evolved convergently across cnidarians. Evan Bardot 🔬 (our editor) was incredibly helpful in bringing it all together

It's #3DDay! Take a look inside the jellyfish's sting with this 3D reconstruction of the sea anemone's stinging organelle. This shows how the stinger is precisely packaged inside the cell, ready to deploy in an instant. Learn more: bit.ly/3yT0Llx #innovation #discovery

I am honored that Sarah Walker (twiterless) and mines paper from @EcheverriLab Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) was short listed by Ken Poss for the Development Outstanding Paper Prize! This was a fun project and truly collaborative effort to get it finished. Congrats to all authors!!!🎉🍾🥂

To wake up on a spring morning and stroll to greet and experience the work of Giacometti Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art is but one of the many privileges of living in Kansas City Stowers Institute
