Can Aztekin

🚨Why can’t mammals regenerate legs or arms like frog tadpoles or salamanders? Our preprint tackles (part of) this BIG question with surprising findings about oxygen sensing 🔗biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Happy New Year, everyone! 🎉 🐭 vs 🐸 #evodevo #regenerative #cellbio 🧵👇

Very excited for this symposium!! looking forward to meeting everyone and learning from the community! 🤩

🚨 New paper from our lab just published in Nature🚨nature.com/articles/s4158… Discover how 🌱 tumour formation is shaped by tissue context from the very beginning. ✨Fantastic team led by @GSkrupskelyte, Eduardo Rojo, Harikrishnan Ajith

Interested in doing an interdisciplinary PhD to elucidate signalling centres that orchestrates limb regeneration? Come to work with the amazing @CanAztekin and myself!!

🚨We are recruiting two PhD students 🚨 1) Quantitative & dynamic analysis of limb-regenerative signaling centers w/@Osvaldo_Chara 📶🧮💻 🔗phd.tuebingen.mpg.de/80704/Quantita… 2) Evolution of species-specific oxygen sensing 🐸🐭🐔🐬 🔗phd.tuebingen.mpg.de/107521/Evoluti… Please share!

🎉 Our deconstructed, stem-cell–based approach to studying signaling centers and limb-development cell types is out! 🥳 So nice to see it in its final form after the preprint- & huge thanks to the community for all the enthusiasm and interest since then! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Big congratulations to all authors, and heartfelt thanks to our collaborators, and colleagues at @EPFL @epflSV and at our new home MPI Bio&FML , and to @snsf @nrp_79 for generous support!

🧪 Looking for candidates with experience in stem cell culture, quantitative image analysis, or modeling — and eager to learn! 📩 Interested? Contact us!

🔬Limb regeneration depends on regenerative signaling center cells — but how do these cells influence others to proliferate, migrate, or differentiate? We’re recruiting PhD or Postdoc candidatesto explore this with our collaborator Osvaldo Chara!

The Lipid Brain Atlas is out now! If you think lipids are boring and membranes are all the same, prepare to be surprised. Led by Luca Fusar Bassini with Gioele La Manno's lab, we mapped membrane lipids in the mouse brain at high resolution. biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…

🚀 Looking for a Bioinformatician / Data Scientist to join our crew and explore regeneration through single-cell genomics & evolutionary biology! 📩 Questions? Contact us ✉️ 🔗 Apply here: mpg.de/25243280/bioin…

@EzgiOdaba3 Thanks, Ezgi!

@CanAztekin Congratulations Can 🎉

🥳Thrilled to share that our lab has been awarded an ERC StGrant for our project SigReg: Signal to Regeneration! How can we unlock limb regeneration in adult mammals? It’s time to apply what we learned from 🐸 ➡️ 🐭 bio.mpg.de/480424/news_pu…

@lack_lab Thanks a lot, Nathan!

@CanAztekin Many congratulations Can! Very well deserved.

@sumrubayin Thank you, Sumru :) 🧿

@CanAztekin Congratulations!! You’re on a roll. Amazing🧿

@NavinBrian Thanks, Navin! :)

@CanAztekin Congratulations Can!

@GulbenGurhan 🥳

👏👏👏👏👏

@CytoLabKoc Thank you so much, Elif Hocam :)

I met Can when I first started at Koç University, back when he was a master’s student. Since then, he has built an impressive career, congratulations on receiving the ERC StG! I am excited to see the outcomes of SigReg project.
