Juvenile heart anatomy of Ciona robusta and cell division dynamics. Top left: D5 juvenile heart. Top right: Schematic of the image shown at top left. Bottom: Representative images of D8, D11, and D15 juvenile hearts. Yellow dots highlight midline UL nuclei (13, 15 and 18 midline UL, respectively). UL: undifferentiated line cells.

Neural signals influence vertebrate #heart growth, but how? @bradleydavidson.bsky.social &co show how #tachykinin & #Wnt pathways modulate #cardiomyocyte progenitor proliferation in #Ciona, revealing the role of neural cues in organ development @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/4cbr2zT

Try scoring the top, putting them in a pot of water until it boils, then transfer to a pan in the oven to bake for about 15 mins, they come out really nice!

Embryology 2024: a summer like no other Each summer since 1893, a small group of scientists from around the world have convened at the Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) in Woods Hole, Massachusetts, USA, to work on the most exciting model ...

What a fantastic essay by last year's @mblscience.bsky.social Embryology students! A perfect paean to the most wonderful science: "It's exhausting; it's exhilarating; it's Embryology."
