Happy to see this out now. 👏 Yinan Wan, Bogdan Bintu and team. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

The @biozentrum @UniBasel_en is now on #Bluesky. Meet us on @biozentrum.bsky.social to stay informed about the latest news on research, education and events. > Please share!

There are still two weeks left to apply for our #BiozentrumPhDFellowships. Great opportunity to follow your research interests!

Apply now for the prestigious and independent #BiozentrumPhDFellowships. Great science. Unique rotation-based selection of research group and other incentives. The winter call is open until October 5, 2024. bit.ly/4caiqqX @biozentrum @UniBasel_en

The call to start a structural biology / biophysics / advanced imaging group here at the @biozentrum closes SEPTEMBER 30! Love exploring biology w/ superresolution imaging and/or integrated structural biology (NMR, XRay, cryoEM, cryoET, XLMS, structure prediction)? Please apply!

Thrilled to announce that Prof. Michael N. Hall @biozentrum @UniBasel_en has been awarded the 2024 @BalzanPrize for Biological Mechanisms of Ageing. Congratulations to Michael Hall and the three other prize winners! biozentrum.unibas.ch/news/detail/ba…

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)

Excited to share my postdoc work from the @schierlab. This project was a joint effort with many collaborators @seeliglab, @castillohair,Lucia Du, @YiqunWang3,@adamcarte,@mcolomerr, Chris Yin. 1/20 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We use these atlases to study boundary formation, instant differentiation, and gene regulatory networks. Special thanks to Yinan Wan and Jialin Liu, who led the projects, and our collaborators in the Seelig and Bintu labs. Please test drive the browser: schier.merfisheyes.com

Take a look at our Spatial Transcriptomics and single-cell Multiomics papers. We visualize more than 20,000 genes and 200,000 accessible chromatin regions in whole embryos. x.com/biorxiv_devbio… x.com/biorxiv_devbio….

Our #BiozentrumRetreat2024 has come to a close. Thank you all for three inspiring days! #retreat #science #community #campussursee

How can memories persist in the brain when their properties and supporting biological substrates change over time and experiences? Our latest work newly published in @ScienceMagazine proposes that a balance between memory dynamics and persistence is achieved through the divergent recruitment of multiple memory traces established in parallel upon memory encoding. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… Welcome to the Multiverse of Memory! A thread. 1/7

Come join us on October 1 at the birthplace of the homeobox discovery. Registration is free.

Join us on October 1st, 2024, for the "40 Years of the Homeobox @Biozentrum" Symposium. We’re celebrating 4 decades since the discovery of homeobox conservation, a significant breakthrough in #developmentalbiology. Please register by Sept 15. 👉biozentrum.unibas.ch/events/confere…

This is the big one!🤩 Opening for an awesome group leader to join our community on the 5th/6th floor of the @biozentrum. We're looking for someone who brings an exiting biological program using a combo of structural biology, cellular imaging, and biophysics. 📢Retweet please!

I am thrilled to start my lab as an assistant professor @biozentrum & @NCCR_AntiResist of @UniBasel_en this fall. I will continue my research interest in bacteria & jumbophage interactions. Equally thrilled to be closer to our families after 10+ years.

Super excited to announce that I'll start as Assistant Professor @Biozentrum @UniBasel_en next year! I will build a Theoretical Physics of Living Systems Group, focussing on how cells come together to build embryos. biozentrum.unibas.ch/news/detail/tw…

Exciting news: Yuping Li and David Brückner (@d_brueckner) have been appointed as new Assistant Professors @biozentrum @UniBasel_en. Li studies bacteria-jumbophage interactions, and Brückner explores the dynamics of multicellular systems. ow.ly/UlqP50StwWV
