Our work on the role of the proteasome in developmental tempo is out!!!! 🐭⌛️👤⏳ Six years after identifying an association between protein stability and developmental tempo, we now demonstrate a causal link between protein turnover and developmental tempo through proteasomal degradation

Proud to share our latest bioRxiv with Lakatos lab @lakatoslab.bsky.social showing how niche-specific mechanotransduction guides human cortical patterning and cell fate acquisition. How does a tissue's mechanical environment shape which cells it makes, and when? 1/n www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Non-canonical enhancers control gene expression and cell fate in human pluripotent stem cells
Enhancers are key gene regulatory elements that ensure the precise spatiotemporal execution of developmental gene expression programmes. However recent findings indicate that approaches to identify en...

We wrote this introductory review on how concepts from dynamical systems can help us understand developmental biology, hope it’s useful to somebody! It was a lot of fun to put together, and great to collaborate with brilliant colleagues across theory and experiments
