📣 Registrations are open for the next European Synapse Meeting, taking place in Leuven from 21–23 October 2026!
With @synapse-lab.bsky.social, @vanderhaeghenp2.bsky.social, LynetteLim and MarinkaBrouwer, we’ve put together an exciting program—take a look here: www.vibconferences.be/events/europ...
I am very happy (and a bit scared) to present to you what we have been working on over the last 4 years. This manuscript is exactly what I dreamt of when I started the lab and I could not be happier and prouder of the outcome!
✨ New year, new energies!
Inspired by her stay in Camilla Bellone’s lab in Geneva with Alessandra Panzeri, Chelsea is building a behavioral setup that fits her needs just right - an excellent (and exciting!) way to start the new year.

Fantastic PhD opportunities at the intersection of machine learning and biology. Come join us at @vibai.bsky.social! More details at: vib.ai/en/vibai-int...
Why does the forebrain expand dramatically while other neural regions grow less? Our new publication reveals progenitor metabolism critically shapes region-specific brain growth. Thread below. authors.elsevier.com/a/1k-udL7PXu...
Using scRNA sequencing of all ventricular progenitors, we found genes with spatially and temporally restricted expression (baumannn.shinyapps.io/Ventriculome). Amongst these, the mitochondrial protein Fam210b was expressed where and when cell-cycle is the longest.
As a first step to address this question, we built a spatio-temporal atlas of neuronal birth across brain structures, available at neurobirth.org (use your PC to navigate), building on Altman and Bayer’s seminal work on brain development (www.neurondevelopment.org).
🎉 Excited to share that our paper on FCDII is out today! 🙌🏻 Huge thanks to @sbaulac.bsky.social and @sara baldassari for bringing me on board and introducing me to the complexity of somatic mutations. Hope our work helps advance understanding of the disease mechanisms.
We are looking for additional Group Leaders to join the growing computational biology community at VIB.
If you are excited about combining AI and machine learning with fundamental biology, we would love to hear from you!
