Happy to be able to show some love to 🐟 gills, which I've really enjoyed learning about over the past two years. Excited to share the final publication soon! 🤞

@labonnelab Thanks so much Carole! Glad you enjoyed it! 😃

Super exciting and beautiful new work from the talented @MathiThiru95 nature.com/articles/s4158…

Really appreciated this opportunity from @the_Node to write about the amazing journey I got to be on for 6 years and the people I met on the way. Every day I feel fortunate to live in and work for a society that chooses to be curious. I hope it continues to do so. ✨

Here is the 2025 embryo alphabet from alligator to zebrafish. Developmental biology is stunning & leads to important discoveries for human medicine. @SocDevBio @NIH @NSF

Nice article in Scientific American about our work on outer ear evolution and a complimentary study from the lab of Maksim Plikus on role of unique lipids in mammalian ear cartilage. @MathiThiru95 @USCStemCell @KECKSchool_USC scientificamerican.com/article/our-ea…

Sox10 is required for systemic initiation of bone mineralization Read this Research Article by Stefani Gjorcheska, Lindsey Barske and colleagues @CincyResearch: journals.biologists.com/dev/article/15…

Excited to share our new publication, “Bidirectional histone monoaminylation dynamics regulate neural rhythmicity;” a massive collaboration across 5 labs (@Yael_David__ @MuirLab @SimoneSidoli and Haitao Li) See 🧵 below for the highlights nature.com/articles/s4158…

Welcome to embryo alphabet. Each day I will post an unannotated embryo image. Today E is for elephant. Repost tweet w/an image of a different species embryo & add a quote including name that begins with same letter of the day. @SocDevBio

Thanks especially to @CrumpLab for providing the opportunity to do exciting, diverse experiments, as well as the necessary guidance and confidence!

Thank you to all co-authors! @GillisLab @EvseenkoLab @YaWenChenMSSM @goodfrognosis and everyone not on Twitter/X. It's hard to emphasize how amazing it's been to work with people of such diverse expertise who still had an interest in various obscure aspects of this work.

Excited to share this story from my PhD revealing the surprising legacy of our gill-bearing ancestry in the form of our cartilaginous outer ears, summarized in this series of Tweets.

An @USCStemCell study published in @PNASnews has identified gene regulators that enable fish and lizards to naturally regenerate their hearing. The findings could guide future efforts to regenerate hearing for patients. @CrumpLab @KeckSchool_USC stemcell.keck.usc.edu/study-breaks-t…

🎉 We're excited to share our new research in @Nature! We reveal that crocodile head scales self-organize through compressive folding of the skin - a mechanical twist on their development & evolution! Please read & share 🐊🔬 @genevunige @UNIGEnews nature.com/articles/s4158…

@KanaiMichi @ClouthierLab @NicholsLab Congrats!!!

I am excited to announce that our @ClouthierLab @NicholsLab work describing the role of the Gq/11 signaling pathway in lower jaw development is now out on Biorxiv! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Do you love evo-devo and want to do a PhD on millipede trachea homology in beautiful Vancouver 🇨🇦? Come join my lab! form.jotform.com/242534537864262 Please re-tweet :)

Our paper ‘Whole-embryo Spatial Transcriptomics at Subcellular Resolution from Gastrulation to Organogenesis’ is now on biorxiv! We introduce weMERFISH, a platform for profiling gene expression in entire embryos at subcellular resolution. Here is🧵biorxiv.org/content/10.110… (1/12)

@anurag721 @kamberovlab Thanks Anurag! :)

@MathiThiru95 @kamberovlab Good luck Mathi! Best wishes 😄

Excited to start my postdoc in @kamberovlab at UPenn studying the development and evolution of eccrine sweat glands and human thermoregulation. Thanks to all my new lab mates for the warm welcome. 😃

@BenjaminWeekley @kamberovlab Thanks Ben! Can't wait to meet up some time when I'm in New York. :)

@MathiThiru95 @kamberovlab Congrats Mathi!!! And welcome to the east coast!!
