Three scientists at different stages of their career. It has been an honour being part of their journey. Beautify paper ❤️

Teeth first evolved as sensory tissue in the armored exoskeletons of ancient fish, fossil scans find Anyone who has ever squirmed through a dental cleaning can tell you how sensitive teeth can be. This sensitivity gives important feedback about temperature, pressure—and yes, pain—as we bite and chew ...

New paper from the lab: Our teeth arose as sensory organs on the outside of the body of ancient jawless fish.!! Congrats to Yara Haridy and the team!

Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Marie Curie, Physicist and chemist.

Today is International Day of Women & Girls in Science.

Marie Curie, the first woman to win a Nobel Prize. Her contributions have left an indelible mark on the world of science & health & continue to inspire generations of scientists & innovators. 🔬 #WomenInScience #WomenInSTEM

We are happy to collaborate with Athena's Journey for the next event on February 13th at 5pm at D-BSSE (Room K-58), featuring special guest Prof. Dr. Janet Hering.

Remember, every female scientist has a story that can inspire you!

Single-cell profiling of penta- and tetradactyl mouse limb buds identifies mesenchymal progenitors controlling digit numbers and identities - Nature Communications The initial cellular alterations underlying changes in digit numbers and identities were unknown. Here, Palacio et al. identify two limb bud progenitor populations that are impacted in an opposing man...

Very happy to share our latest work in Nature Communications where we identify two limb
progenitor populations involved in congential and evolutionary digit variations. Congratulations to all authors 🍾🥂 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Very happy to have caught Rolf Zeller in flagrante doing an experiment in the lab under Angela’s watchful supervision. Can’t wait to see the result tomorrow 😃 A flavour of more things to come 😃

This stunning space image showcases a vibrant cosmic scene filled with a rich tapestry of colors and textures. In the center, a radiant region glows in intense shades of magenta, hinting at the presence of a nebula and star formation. Surrounding this central brilliance, swirling clouds of orange and blue create a dynamic contrast, illustrating the complexities of interstellar gas and dust. The background is peppered with a myriad of stars, twinkling like diamonds against a deep, dark expanse of space. The intricate formations of colorful gases suggest ongoing cosmic processes, such as star birth and celestial evolution. This magnificent display of colors and luminosity invites viewers to ponder the vastness and mystery of the universe. Overall, the image captures the awe-inspiring nature of astronomy, highlighting the beauty and grandeur found beyond our planet.

A new star is born, blooming in the embrace of the nebula, where interstellar clouds weave together in cosmic harmony. Celestial evolution stirs, weaving the very fabric of the magnificent universe.

Celebrating 100 years of The Company of Biologists - the Node Happy New Year, everyone. 2025 is a big year for us at The Company of Biologists, marking 100 years since the Company was founded. We're using this

2025 is the 100th birthday of The Company of Biologists @biologists.bsky.social 🥳 Lots of exciting activities happening throughout the year👀

In this post, @amjeve.bsky.social highlights 4 #biologists100 projects, including @dev-journal.bsky.social articles and Biologists @ 100 conference:

You can feel free to DM me with questions about publishing and editorial careers, informal paper pitches, ideas for front-half content, or anything related. And don't be surprised if I DM you about your recent preprint - I always keep an eye out for interesting potential submissions. 3/

Inspired by @mads100tist.bsky.social I'm going to do threads on parts of the publishing process we often get asked about. These will be from my perspective @naturecomms.bsky.social and based on my own opinions, so keep your salt handy.
