I just submitted my ReproBioArt. You should too! woobox.com/kbxnvj/gallery…

My cup is so full! I got to see so many of my friends at the Rocky Mountain Reproductive Science Symposium at CSU today and saw some WinRS in their natural habitat! Its was so good to catch up Alison Ermisch Rebecca Ye Yuan Jennifer Wood

In this #50YearsofCell celebration focus issue on Developmental Biology, Jianping Fu and I authored a perspective summarizing the prospects and challenges of developing human organs using embryo models and interspecies chimeras. cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

Delighted to introduce our chemically induced embryo model (ci-MO). This is direct, rapid, efficient, advanced and high-fidelity. Start with any ESCs and in just 8 days you are here (see picture) ✨ Dive into the concept in the 🧵below! 🚀biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Huge thank you to Jennifer Wood for hosting me this week. It was such a pleasure to speak and work with your group and meet with the repro crew at Nebraska! #reprorocks Alison Ermisch

Dr. Judy Williams, the facilitator for our annual WinRS lunch on combating imposter syndrome, is an internationally-renowned expert on teaching, learning, and professional development. Join our WinRS lunch on July 18th in Dublin! qub.ac.uk/sites/StaffGat…

Truly amazing turnout today at our annual WinRS lunch on combating imposter syndrome. As the attendance in this room confirms, if you suffer from imposter syndrome, you are not alone, and there are strategies to help. Thank you, Dr. Williams, for all your insight!

Feeling inspired to return to the lab after hearing Jianping Fu and Jacob (يعقوب) Hanna speak about modeling embryogenesis with stem cells Truly amazing work! 👏🙌🙏 SSR #ssr2024
