@thecocodium @uniofgalway @JM_Gahan Welcome back!

Welcome to Centre for Chromosome Biology @uniofgalway, @JM_Gahan

A little beat up but they still have a story to tell…

@JM_Gahan @uniofgalway @ERC_Research @MSarsCentre Congrats James!

Excited to finally share that I have been awarded an ERC Starting Grant and I will start my own group at the Center for Chromosome Biology @uniofgalway in 2024 working on chromatin and gene regulation in choanoflagellates! #ERCStG @ERC_Research Cake courtesy of @MSarsCentre

@thecocodium @VarleyAine Too cool!

Unlike most animals, #Hydractinia embryos do not complete gastrulation, carrying forward a population of embryonic-like #stemcells (aka i-cells) into adulthood. @VarleyAine et al show that an adult animal – soma and germline – can derive from one i-cell biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…

@m_ssaavedra People are dying to get in there

Toilets with a view in Roscoff 🙃

Online now: A comprehensive characterization of #neurogenesis in #Hydractinia. Well done @E_Chrysostomou @m_ssaavedra @ThompsonKerry8 @JM_Gahan @christyschnitz @BaxevanisLab elifesciences.org/articles/78793

Finally got to work with Hydra, thank you for the great collaboration! doi.org/10.1016/j.ydbi…

#2022MASDB Invited Speaker Dr. Tim Dubuc (@TimDuBuc), Visiting Asst. Professor @swarthmore, uses the cnidarian Hydractinia to study stem cell-driven growth and regeneration. swarthmore.edu/profile/timoth… 1/2

.@TimDuBuc will be speaking about inductive germ cell specification – the generation of germ cells de novo from somatic stem cells – in Hydractinia. Read more about this fascinating topic here: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P… 2/2

WHOLE-BODY REGENERATION, Methods and Protocols, the book published by Simon Blanchoud and Brigitte Galliot is finally out in Open Access! Just visit our zoo of regenerating species! Many thanks to all excellent contributing authors who were so patient link.springer.com/content/pdf/10…

@JM_Gahan @NatureComms @Pawel_Burkhardt @Sars_Centre @ian_kouzel @BioUiB Lovely, well done!

Delighted to see our work on the histone demethylase Lsd1 in Nematostella finally out in @NatureComms! @Pawel_Burkhardt @Sars_Centre @ian_kouzel @BioUiB nature.com/articles/s4146…

Excited to dig into this deep Piwi exploration from the van Wolfswinkel lab! cell.com/cell-reports/f…

@LaydenLab Better take a gap year and wait until 2040

Projected cost to send my new born to my alma mater in 2039 = $610,000.00. 🤔

A nice blog post about what my students are doing at Swarthmore blogs.swarthmore.edu/its/2021/03/18…

We are excited to let you know that one of our favorite people, @HarvardOEB Professor Mansi Srivastava @acoel_hofstenia & @MCZHarvard curator, will give an #EvolutionMatters free #VirtualTalk on "Body Builders: How Animals Regenerate New Parts" (4/14). bit.ly/36Dlxro

Thrilled to announce a new society promoting science for tissue regeneration. See writeup with ⁦Elly Tanaka in Development and visit isrbio.org. Virtual launch meeting in April - join, see great talks, students/postdocs submit abstracts! dev.biologists.org/content/148/3/…

We are searching for an assistant professor in evolution broadly defined. Applications due 2/1/2021. Looking forward to hearing from you all. academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/17733
