Yet another exciting session of #BDRLaunchpad. Grateful to FumiAki Obata & Sa Kan Yoo for sharing advice and interesting perspectives with the ECRs RIKEN BDR

Many thanks to PhD students Rahul Parit and Sonoko Mizuno for a fantastic job at interviewing the panelists! So encouraging to see more early career researchers (#ECRs) taking the lead!

Excited to share this #spotLights interview featuring Bipasha Dey, Girish Kale & Verena Kaul They talk about their love for #DevBio, how to collaborate across continents & navigate the ups and downs of research. Listen below or on our website! 🎙️ youtu.be/j5V9v2qCGGs?si…

Delighted to embark on a new experience with preLights. I've just posted my first write-up, and I'd love for you to dive in and explore more!!

Prof Fumio Motegi gave a career talk about learnings from failure at the recent BDR-Launchpad event for ECRs. Learning that seasoned researchers cherish both success AND failure was enlightening! Thank you for your time! 理研BDR(生命機能科学研究センター) RIKEN BDR #ECRs #BDRLaunchpad 学術変革領域研究(A)：生体秩序力学

Great time hosting Fumio Motegi, my cell polarity hero RIKEN BDR. Incredible phenomenology of flow and forces in cytoplasm and at cortex. Mechano-chemical interplay in morphogenesis never ceases to amaze. Thank you for such a feast of science and lots of encouragement to ECRs.

#BDRLaunchpad hosted VectorBuilder Japan CEO miho matakatsu & CTO Jason Ye for a session on non-academic careers in science. Learnt that science happens outside of academia too! Thank you for sharing your story of embracing this transition & preparing ECRs for it. RIKEN BDR

The Soka Gakkai offers sincere congratulations to Nihon Hidankyo on being awarded the 2024 #NobelPeacePrize for its tireless efforts, since 1956, to bring to the world the cries for peace of the hibakusha from Hiroshima and Nagasaki. We share the determination to continue the

A super interesting paper! Glad to have collaborated with Leeba Ann Chacko to present this preLight. Have a look if cytoplasmic crowding and its regulation piques your interest.

The single greatest misunderstanding about science by the public is that scientists solve problems; in reality, scientists are primarily concerned with creating them.

Thanks to everyone for the great enthusiasm in attending and for supporting! It was a wonderful event introducing Indian culture, music and food, including samosas and Henna hand painting! RIKEN BDR 理研BDR(生命機能科学研究センター)

We train PhD students to put together a well thought-out research proposal, but for 94% the project does not end up going according to plan. We need to also train young scientists to being open to following the data and the ideas to wherever they lead.

Exciting to be back in the same room I defended my thesis 5 years back and talk about my postdoc work Yu-Chiun Wang Lab RIKEN BDR Thanks Richa Rikhy for the opportunity to present my work IISER Pune.

Life comes to a full circle. Grateful to be back at IISER Pune to present my work about yolk, part of which started during my PhD with Richa Rikhy.Thank you for hosting us! Hoping for many students to visit Japan and work at RIKEN BDR and with the amazing Yu-Chiun Wang!

Through live imaging enabled by new tools, Wuergezhen et al. visualises the hidden dynamics of the basement membrane (BM). We show how BM turnover & expansion coordinate with cellular movements & divisions, highlighting their active & synergistic roles in skin morphogenesis.

Delighted to share latest preprint from Li-Kun Phng RIKEN BDR where we investigated how #endothelial cell behaviours and #mechanobiology control blood vessel size in #zebrafish. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

One of the most reliable ways to improve our mental health is to help others. After being randomly assigned to do just 3 acts of kindness a week, people felt significantly less depressed, anxious, and lonely. Lifting others up elevates us too. Giving shows us that we matter.
