The Possible vs. The Actual: can #GenerativeBiology reveal fundamental design principles of complex life? @philipcball.bsky.social closes #GenBio25 with a magnificent synthesis of the past two days of discussions, and guides us towards an agenda for the future of the field.

Excited to share our latest work with @jamesbriscoe.bsky.social . A global #cis-regulatory temporal program guides how spatial cues are interpreted in neural progenitors. We show how #space and #time can be integrated to generate cell type diversity in the #spinalcord. Congrats to all authors.
