New preprint!
These elongating embryo-like structures formed entirely from sheep stem cells in vitro.
They develop neural tubes, somites, neurons, and kidney progenitors โ modeling post-gastrulation trunk development.

Our work is finally published in @Dev_Cell! We predict and affect endodermal morphotype choice in mouse #gastruloids. Great work by @NaamaFa , with key contributions from Chen Sacharen and @LaraAvni. Full paper at authors.elsevier.com/a/1jCamโฆ

Dear American friends. Our Prime Minister has a tendency to lie in his interviews for International media, so I came to help with some facts. Please pass on to your friends - and come help us, Israelis who are fighting for democracy, save our country.

On Friday, the sun put on a dazzling show for us. My friend @TheVastReaches and I worked hard over the last 5 days to produce this incredibly detailed 140 megapixel image to illustrate how wonderfully dynamic and beautiful our star can be. Make sure you zoom in!

Our paper is out @ScienceAdvances! Check out how a single line of inner hair cells within the mammalian cochlea๐ forms. Congrats to the fantastic @roecon91 @ShaharTaiber & Olga Loza. See the thread below. science.org/doi/10.1126/sciaโฆ
Why are in-vitro embryo-like models so variable, while the embryo develops so robustly?
We try to tackle this in a new preprint, using the gastruloid model and morphogenetic progression of definitive endoderm (DE).
biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/โฆ
We believe this approach can be extendable to other structures in the gastruloid system, as well as to other organoids for controlling variability, and will also shed light on the factors that provide the embryo its morphogenetic robustness.
Kudos to @naamafa for bravely leading this effort, and to Chen Schiff for all the machine learning code!

Knowing how to give a good talk is a crucial skill to have, but it's mostly not formally taught very well. Here's a ๐งตon my strategy for how to prepare for the presentation, actually present it, and then answer the questions.

Our review on synthetic developmental biology is out @ScienceMagazine!
@GMartinezAra and @KStapornwongkul discussed what developmental processes have been reconstituted/controlled so far and what tools/approaches will be the key in the next stages.

Wow! Scientists have observed a single-cell alga evolve in real time into a multicellular organism. The transition took around a year and was caused by the introduction of a predator into the environment. nature.com/articles/s41598-0โฆ
