New preprint! We show that cell fate can be predicted from a snapshot of combinatorial signaling — and the underlying map is a single angle in signaling space. Work by first authors Bassit Fijabi and Seth Teague and collaboration with @davidbrueckner.bsky.social. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Really excited to share our new paper in @nature.com! We uncovered how a physical instability of the cytoplasm coupled with the cell cycle drives cytoplasmic partitioning in early embryos #zebrafish #drosophila.

Hi bsky! Do embryonic tissues have backup plans🔀? Gastruloids (model of body elongation) can build an axis through different cellular mechanisms when on adherent substrates instead of free floating. A case of developmental plasticity! w/ A. Delahaye & ‪@bensteventon.bsky.social‬ shorturl.at/v01DO

Now, this is a very good perspective on dynamical Systems for cell fate decision. Congratulations to the authors!

“I think every human being has to ask himself: what do you do in the face of genocide?” “It couldn’t happen without the support of the western world. Any leader that is not doing whatever they can to stop it is part of this horror.” www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

Israel committing genocide in Gaza, say Israel-based human rights groups

Reports detailing intentional targeting of Palestinians as a group, and systemic destruction of Palestinian society, add to pressure for action

Can robots in a swarm act like the cells of an organism? Thanks to Sedeer El-Showk for the new article in @nature.com, which highlights the work of a number of research groups, including our own, on how “Robots demonstrate principles of collective intelligence”. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Can using synthetic approaches to build biology help teach us the design principles of how embryos build themselves? 👷‍♀️🔧 If this is a question that interests you, come and share your thoughts at this Royal Society Workshop on Generative Biology royalsociety.org/science-even...

In developing embryos, cells move a lot! Plenty of that movement is random. Is random cell mixing a feature or bug for tissue patterning? Turns out, it’s both! Excited to share the 1st preprint from my postdoc w/ Sean Megason @seanemcgeary.bsky.social and Allon Klein. 1/20 doi.org/10.1101/2025...
