Incredible work!.
Happy to see JiSoo Park’s work on mouse neural tube organoids published 👏🎉!! Not quite a #SyntheticEmbryo… but still impressive display of the self-organization capacity of stem cells. Check out the neural crest cells that emerge from these organoids!

🚨🚨🐤🥚.We use single cell transcriptomics to define the cell fate choices during early limb development. We find that ectodermal BMP signalling is necessary for formation of the forelimbs! .@Smith_CraigA @SWbioinf @MonashBDI .

Summary: This study establishes a transcriptional atlas of the cell fate decisions underlying LPM specification, subdivision and development of the chicken forelimbs.

A new biotech partnership could bring the first baby thylacine to life within 10 years. But de-extinction is controversial – should we even be doing this?

Super excited to embark on this new journey with @itiscolossal. With this commitment we have the best chances of making what was once science fiction, science FACT @AJ_Pask @federallamm.
The return of the thylacine begins today. Learn about reviving the next wave of wild: . #itiscolossal #deextinction

🚨 1st solo author paper alert 🚨. I discuss how marsupials possess distinct heterochrony in their craniofacial patterning, and how comparative studies with mice can be leveraged to learn more about mammalian skull development and evolution.

Big things inbound!.
I am beyond excited to announce TIGRR lab! Supported by a $5M donation from the Wilson Family Trust to support Marsupial conservation and restoration. Developing the technology to bring back the thylacine. @BioSci_UniMelb @UniMelb

The talented @Laura__Cook has generated a new, high-resolution developmental series of a new marsupial model, The Fat-tailed Dunnart. See our study below!.
Our paper on a staging series for the fat-tailed dunnart just came out in Nat. Comms. Biology. Beautiful and important work by the talented @Laura__Cook. @AxelHNewton @BioSci_UniMelb @UniMelb.
