Happy Birthday, Rosalind Franklin. She captured an X-ray diffraction image of DNA and stated that a helical structure was probable. Watson and Crick then created a detailed model based on her results. They initially received credit for the discovery and were awarded the Nobel Prize after her death.🧪

Horizon Europe 2028 - 2034: twice bigger, simpler, faster and more impactful Research and innovation news alert: As part of the next long-term EU budget 2028-2034, the Commission is proposing to double the budget of the research and innovation framework programme to €175 billi...

Very promising news on the next seven-year EU budget, with a proposed substantial increase for Horizon Europe including the ERC.

Co-development of mesoderm and endoderm enables organotypic vascularization in lung and gut organoids Recapitulating the concurrent development of germ layers through the co-differentiation of mesoderm and endoderm within a single spheroid enabled the generation of vascularized lung and intestinal organoids, revealing how the microenvironment guides the development of organotypic endothelial and mesenchymal cells.
