The #HumanCellAtlas consortium aims to map every cell type in the human body. In Science, researchers report a key feat: detailed maps of over a million individual cells across 33 organs, representing the most comprehensive, cross-tissue cell atlases to date. (THREAD) 🧵

This week I have had the pleasure to share the preliminary results of my first 8 months of PhD at the Behaviour of Arthropod Disease Vectors conference, organized by MAK!T and Université de Montpellier. #MAKIT #UM #IRD #MIVEGEC #ParaFrap

I had the pleasure to present the results of my first year of PhD at the EMBO workshop on New Frontiers in Host-Parasite Interactions. I must thank the LabEx ParaFrap LabEx programme for making it possible, and my PIs Anna Cohuet, Arthur Talman and David Carrasco.

Happy for the opportunity to organize the MIVEGEC Doctoriales with my colleagues Margaux Lefebvre and @bastien_reyne. We had a beautiful day of scientific talks with brilliant PhD students. Thanks to IRD.fr MIVEGEC Université de Montpellier and CNRS 🌍 for funding, material and hosting!

Insects do have a brain, and we study it! Single cell RNA sequencing on the CNS of Anopheles gambiae is the most thrilling task I've tackled up to now. Check out my most recent results I presented at the Conference Jacques Monod on Insect Models for Infection Biology.

A day dedicated to public engagement! Alejandro Marin Menendez project is this year in the program of #fêtedelascience: 15 IRD.fr scientists went by bike to highschools to discuss about research with students. Alex and I went to Pézenas and cycled for 106 km, I didn't know I could do it 🚲🧬🌟

Jean Marc Jean Marc TSAGMO kickstarts the Future of Parasitology symposium! Institut Pasteur, since 1887 Exciting talks on Plasmodium cytoskeleton, T. brucei gene expression, Plasmodium oocysts and finally neurotranscriptomics in Anopheles from Irene Rossi ! 👍

Happy of having contributed to this reportage on MIVEGEC research with a little dissection of a mosquito brain (you can see it during the first 25 seconds 😊). Enjoy this video about some of our research topics! brut.media/fr/videos/scie…
