Rita-Levi Montalcini was an Italian neurobiologist who lived an extraordinary life. Today would have been her 115th birthday. Read more about her life in my illustrated article on @the_Node ! thenode.biologists.com/who-w…

Who was Rita Levi-Montalcini? - the Node

Rita-Levi Montalcini (1909-2012) was an Italian neurobiologist who lived an extraordinary life, and today (22nd April) would have been her 115th birthday.

Pleased to share my PhD work in its final form, published at @eLife! @BenSteventon2 @gserranonajera @SteventonLab elifesciences.org/articles/9…

Intrinsic and extrinsic cues time somite progenitor contribution to the vertebrate primary body axis

Cells know when to contribute to the maturing embryonic body axis by adjusting an internal timer to the conditions around them.

V happy to announce I am setting up my lab @GeneticsCam @Cambridge_Uni supported by a @wellcometrust CDA. Embryo patterning and evolution via microscopy, mutants + modelling; mainly Drosophila (for now). RA + PDRA job ads coming soon–please get in touch informally if interested!

Pleased to share the pre-print of my PhD work - investigating intrinsic and extrinsic timers in axial progenitor cell populations using experimental embryology @BenSteventon2 @gserranonajera @SteventonLab biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… 🐤🐤🐤⌛️⌛️

A population intrinsic timer controls Hox gene expression and cell dispersion during progenitor...

During embryonic development, the timing of events at the cellular level must be coordinated across multiple length scales to ensure the formation of a well-proportioned body plan. This is clear...

We wanted to know if Hox gene expression is intrinsic to axial progenitor populations or if it is regulated by extrinsic cues. Looking at Hox gene expression in the grafts (HCR) reveals that the HH8 Hox gene profile is robustly maintained in the HH4 environment, and vice versa

Overall we’ve found a surprising degree of intrinsic regulation of Hox gene expression and cell behaviour over time in development ⌛️
