A must read! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… tunable metamaterial microwave absorber inspired by #chameleon’s color-changing mechanism (described in our work: nature.com/articles/ncomm…) Genetics & Evolution Biologie - UNIGE


In case you missed it, here's an article we wrote for the Node to describe how crocodile head scales arise from compressive folding 🐊 🔬 thenode.biologists.com/the-mechanics-… Genetics & Evolution The Milinkovitch-Tzika lab

Un article en français très intéressant paru dans Pour la Science reprenant les résultats publiés par l'équipe du The Milinkovitch-Tzika lab de notre département. Biologie - UNIGE Université de Genève


🧬 Voulez-vous savoir comment l'ADN ancien dévoile la vie de nos ancêtres ? Écoutez l'interview fascinant de Mathias Currat sur la RTS ! 🎧 👉 rts.ch/audio-podcast/… Mathias Currat Université de Genève #Génétique #Archéologie #Sciences #Histoire #Recherche #Anthropologie

🎙️🦖🌑 Il y a 150 millions d’années, le pelage des mammifères était sombre! Une équipe sino-belge l’a découvert, et Michel Milinkovitch (The Milinkovitch-Tzika lab) en décrypte les implications dans CQFD. Ne manquez pas son analyse! 🔎✨ Ecoutez ici: avisdexperts.ch/fr/interventio… #évolution #science

🦖➡️🕊️ From dinosaur simple proto-feathers to bird intricate feathers? Our latest study shows that feather development is highly resilient to perturbations. 🧐✨ Read more here 👉 lanevol.org/news/article/d… #evolution #feathers #dinosaurs #birds Université de Genève Biologie - UNIGE

🦖➡️🕊️ La RTS met en lumière la dernière publication de The Milinkovitch-Tzika lab sur l’évolution des plumes! Découvrez comment cette étude révèle les secrets fascinants de leur formation. 🧐✨ À lire ici 👉 rts.ch/info/sciences-… #science #évolution #plume #dinosaures Université de Genève

🚨 Study alert: Led by Athanasia Tzika from The Milinkovitch-Tzika lab, the study explores the CLCN2 gene’s role in snake skin color patterning, advancing knowledge of snakes pattern formation. Read more: lanevol.org/news/article/c… #Genetics #Evolution Biologie - UNIGE #snake #skincolorpattern

Also, our study, "PMEL is involved in snake colour pattern transition from blotches to stripes," shows how a #PMEL mutation causes striped #patterns in corn #snakes. Excited to see these findings drive trait #diversification! nature.com/articles/s4146… 🐍 #EvoDevo Biologie - UNIGE



How do blood vessels adapt to pressure? 🩸 A new collaborative study from the Guillaume Salbreux lab shows how changes in endothelial cells help vessels stretch and stay strong — thanks to actin fibers and a smart mechanical model. 📄 doi.org/10.1038/s41567… Université de Genève Biologie - UNIGE

🚀 Exciting news! Prof. Emi Nagoshi joins Azure Cell Therapies as Chair of the Scientific Advisory Board. The startup, developing next-gen cell therapies for Parkinson’s, just received a CHF 650K Innosuisse grant! youtu.be/6XQ_b6DYkZA #Parkinsons #Biotech #UNIGE Université de Genève

Congrats The Milinkovitch-Tzika lab on your latest study.
