@MBLScience @ArthropodLegs What was the clearing protocol?
English
#MicroscopyMonday 🔬 — A 3D reconstruction of a cleared mouse embryo labeled for neurons (magenta) and muscles (cyan). This type of imaging lets researchers can image deep into biological tissue to study neuronal morphology in an intact animal or embryo.

Had such a great time working with the best undergrad this summer! So proud of Rachel’s impressive new HCR skills (below)! Sad she’s going back to class/can’t be in lab full time this fall, but am very lucky she’s going to continue working with me on our pronephric adventures 🐟

Congratulations Noel and Marco! Onward and upward :)
Vishruth Venkat@vish_venkat
Phenomenal honors thesis on lateral lines and neural crest by @PrinceLab_UofC wondergrad Noel and amazing work on shark lateral lines by Coates lab wondergrad Marco! An honor to have worked with these two. Go #teamlateralline
English
And thank you @MadS100tist and @LabPiotrowski for getting us started with these gorgeous fish in the first place!

Fantastic talks by Prince lab wondergrads Noel McGrory and Theresa Christiansen on the development and innervation of #zebrafish lateral lines!
English
Congratulations to Prince Lab postdoc @parahsaramore on her latest publication looking at how Vangl works in the pulmonary mesenchyme to form lung sacculi! Another great reminder that development is beautiful :)
Sarah Paramore, PhD@parahsaramore
So pleased to announce that the first chunk of my graduate work is out now in @Dev_Cell 🫁🐭🔬 here we investigated the role of the planar cell polarity complex in lung sacculation, identifying a PCP-independent role for Vangl in the pulmonary mesenchyme authors.elsevier.com/c/1isRC5Sx5gxk…

Neighbour/partner lab (the Coates lab) wondergrad Marco Lopez from #teamlateralline talking about his amazing work on #shark lateral lines and eco morphology at #SICB2024
English
Next Prince lab wondergrad Noel McGrory talked about his fascinating findings on the relationships between #zebrafish neural crest and cranial placodes at #SICB2024

Prince lab debuts at #SICB2024 with wondergrad Theresa Christiansen talking about her amazing work on lateral line innervation and development- at her first ever conference presentation!

I'm excited to announce that @InSDB_79 will be the official guest society of @SocDevBio at the 2023 SDB meeting. Don't forget abstract submission closes April 10th sdbonline.org/2023mtg.

And it’s a wrap! @UChicago and @MBLScience’s first Mini embryology course, led by our very own @Lab_VPrince and Nipam Patel finished its two week debut today. Here’s to our amazing instructors and all flies, butterflies, zebrafish, squids, chicks and anemones!

For our September journal club, we read the recently published paper by Dr. Manuel Rocha from his PhD work in the Prince lab @Lab_VPrince @PrinceLab_UofC, “Zebrafish Cdx4 regulates neural crest cell specification and migratory behaviors in the posterior body”.
English
n/n in summary, this work shows that in #zebrafish (like other vertebrates) the head is not like the trunk, and it’s specification and migration are controlled by distinct genes- like cdx4!
English
6/n the environment matters, but only sometimes, it seems. Elegant cell transplantation studies showed that Cdx4 activity was not required in the somitic mesoderm for proper crest migration
English
Hot off the press- new work led by our latest graduate Manny Rocha, looking at how trunk neural crest migration is regulated! 1/n

I am thrilled to see the thesis work of recent Prince Lab graduate Manny Rocha out in Developmental Biology authors.elsevier.com/a/1dcF%7E2mzTV…
