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...

Excited to share our new preprint out now on bioRxiv! Read about the effects of PFOA and Gen X on sea urchin larval development, which include defects to skeletal patterning and altered neural development.
PFAS Compounds PFOA and Gen X are Teratogenic to Sea Urchin Embryos https://t.co/sNRTBRnOe5

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
