JOB ALERT We are seeking a Computational Research Assistant or Research Associate to help drive an ambitious multiomics ageing project part of the NMGN Mouse Ageing Cluster. www.jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/49939/ @scicambridge.bsky.social @phar.cam.ac.uk @cambridgebiosci.bsky.social

What do we mean by ‘mechanism’ anyway? @dev-journal.bsky.social Executive Editor @katherine-brown.bsky.social gives her perspective on the recent article "A case for broadening our view of mechanism in developmental biology" by @biyolokum.bsky.social @swathiarur.bsky.social and Mansi Srivastava:

My 3 favourite things about being a scientist: my full time job is to solve mysteries (how cool is that!), constantly being amazed by how beautiful & surprising the natural world is, getting to work w/ people who are smarter than me & have skills I can only dream of having on problems I care about.

We've been awarded a UKRI MRC grant to examine the causes and consequences of #heterochromatin hypomethylation in cancer 🥳. #postdoc opportunity coming in the near future. #epigenetics. Please share with anyone who might be interested.

Looking for something fun to read? Here’s a #popsci piece I did on the crazy history of cilia and left/right patterning in embryos. Remember #devbiolwriteclub Bluesky Boot Camp starts Monday Dec. 2! Please RS (re-skeet?) nautil.us/the-anatomic...

Please share this PhD opportunity in my new lab in Bristol, using protein design/ engineering to understand and build molecular motors to control intracellular transport. Working with @markdodding.bsky.social and Prof Dek Woolfson. www.findaphd.com/phds/project... www.swbio.ac.uk/biomolecular...

We are forming a patient advisory group to help shape our research on BRCA breast cancer prevention! Follow the link/scan the barcode for more info and to express interest. Please share! @wtklab.bsky.social www.stemcells.cam.ac.uk/about-us/eng...

We are happy to report that our journals and community sites now have Bluesky accounts. Follow them at: @dev-journal.bsky.social @jcellsci.bsky.social @jexpbiol.bsky.social @dmmjournal.bsky.social @biologyopen.bsky.social @the-node.bsky.social @prelights.bsky.social @focalplane.bsky.social

Even though there are great #devbio and #biophysics starter packs, I felt #morphogenesis & #organogenesis was missing as a subfield :D Far from complete or full. Tell me if you want to be added! go.bsky.app/PB6s8PQ

Do you work in #DevBio and want to introduce the fascinating world of developmental biology to your family and friends? You can show them this science documentary, produced by the British Society for Developmental Biology, The Company of Biologists and Cambridge Filmworks! 📽️ youtu.be/avrmIs3vPUQ?...

Upcoming Development Special Issue 'Lifelong Development' Beyond the embryo: tissue maintenance, regeneration & plasticity Guest eds: Meri Huch & Mansi Srivastava Deadline: 15 May 2025 All article types welcome #DevBio #Regeneration #StemCells journals.biologists.com/dev/pages/li...

Can I ask you to share a PhD advert at Bristol Uni please? Rhomboid proteases play a role in neurons that is essential for life- but it is not characterised. Got a student interested in cell biology, electrophysiology and neurobiology? Send them our way! tinyurl.com/56f24f7c
