And... it's live! In situ hybridization has been foundational for sea urchin developmental biology. Yet it is tedious and slow... Here we report a fully automated method to probe more than a hundred genes using a general purpose liquid handler.

Despite the reach of in situ hybridization (ISH) in developmental biology, it has rarely been used at scale. The major limitation has been the throughput of the assay, which typically relies upon...

Our lab's revised paper published in @NatureComms Multiplexed volumetric CLEM enabled by scFvs provides insights into the cytology of cerebellar cortex https://t.co/WIgQ2nYgae Congrats to Xiaomeng's et al. @MCB_Harvard!
If you are interested in the relationship between the structure and function of neurons, see this new study from our lab that correlates electron microscopy connectomics of the #cerebellum with molecular labels, using detergent-free scFv-based immunofluorescence. #VEM @Harvard👇

Biological systems are complex. Sometimes, removing just one tiny piece can be catastrophic… Can we study this with single cell analysis? Read our new bioRxiv (or this X-plainer) to find out! Please RT/RP! https://t.co/T3nRJfPjIX

Cephalopods are an incredible clade of animals and much of their biology is a mystery. I'm thrilled to share our new preprint, led by @gabcoffing, describing an amazing discovery--ZZ/ZO karyotypes in cephs and the oldest sex chromsome found to date https://t.co/PvoklrQKZh
