@V4Sdb @MarcelaBuchtova The hikes weren’t bad either

@V4Sdb @MarcelaBuchtova What a wonderful conference!

Had a great time at @V4Sdb 2025 in Slovakia with James Sharpe & Anne Grapin-Botton. Fantastic talks and flawless organization—huge thanks to our wonderful hosts @KoledovaZuzana, Dušan Fabián, Marcela Buchtová & Alexandra Špirková! v4sdb2025.img.cas.cz

We're grateful to each and every of you, and cordially invite to the next V4SDB meeting in Prague, 2027! And follow us to not miss more updates in the field of developmental biology! #V4SDB2025 #conference #developmentalbiology #morphogenesis #organoids #evodevo

Wow, that was amazing! We thank everyone for attending the V4SDB 2025 meeting! You all made it an excellent conference, where we had the opportunity to hear from outstanding speakers,share ideas and experiences, and of course have some unforgettable time during social activities!

He has worked on improving neurospheres to model the development of the enteric nervous system. They did this by combining in vitro culturing with specific growth factors, followed by implantation in ovo to track the progress of enteric neural stem cells during ENS development!

Please welcome our final speaker to the stage: Ádám Soós from @semmelweishu with his fascinating talk Exposure to Mesenchymal Growth Factors Enhances the Ability of Enteric Neural Stem Cells to Colonize the Avian Aganglionic Hindgut! #V4SDB2025 #conference #developmentalbiology

The data reveal the importance specific genes during rRNA modifications and ribosomal assembly in specifying mesenchymal cell fate of cranial neural crest cells in mouse embryos - and a connection with neuroblastoma

Next on the programme we have Irina Poverennaya of the @adameykolab at @MedUni_Wien, to share her knowledge on how rRNA-Modifications Connect Mesenchymal Fate Selection in Neural Crest and Prognosis in Neuroblastoma  #V4SDB2025 #conference #developmentalbiology #stemcells

Have you ever wondered how nails grow? Well today is the day we find out! Nail proximal fold stem cells can change their fate in response to injury - here we find out how BMP and WNT signalling contribute to this by using mouse models #tissueregeneration #celltransplantation

Next speaker, Anna Pulawska-Czub from the University of Warsaw @UniWarszawski, presents a talk Unlocking Regeneration: The Potential of Nail Proximal Fold Stem Cells #V4SDB2025 #developmentalbiology #evodevo #morphogenesis

Radek will describe an unrecognised cell population, which takes part in regeneration initiation and uncover its role in tail regeneration of Xenopus laevis embryos. Don't miss out! #V4SDB2025 #conference #developmentalbiology #regeneration #morphogenesis

Our next speaker, Radek Šindelka from the Institute of Biotechnology of the Czech Academy of Sciences @IBT_CAS will give us a talk about Identification of Regeneration Initiation Cells and Their Function #V4SDB2025 #conference #developmentalbiology #regeneration #morphogenesis

Cellular senescence can be either protective or detrimental to an organism - this depends entirely on the situation! She will tell us about its role both during mammary gland involution and its implications in breast cancer

The last invited speaker of the conference is none other than Han Li @HanLi_Pasteur from @institutpasteur who will tell us about the Double-Edged Sword: Cellular Senescence in the Mammary Gland #V4SDB2025 #conference #developmentalbiology #stemcells #mammarygland #organoids
