The Poché Lab is seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral research associate/fellow with experience in mouse developmental genetics and embryology. This NIH R01-funded position is focused on studying the interplay between nutritional factors, such as vitamins, and genetic and metabolic pathways essential for embryonic development. Special emphasis will be given to neural crest-derived tissues. Our long-term[…]

The Poché Lab is seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral research associate/fellow with experience in retinal developmental biology, tissue regeneration, or transcriptome analysis. This NIH R01-funded position is focused on the study of the molecular mechanisms blocking mammalian Müller glial cell (MG)-mediated retinal regeneration. Our long-term goal is to determine whether the mouse retina retains latent[…]

Welcome back to #DevBiolWriteClub. Let’s review the rules: Do the work. Do the work. Revise and edit. Again, and again, and again. Read with intent. You can’t do it alone. Last time, I hammered away at Rule #4, Read with Intent. Today, I’ll return to Rule #4, and I’ll make some preliminary comments on Rule[…]

By Jos Wendrich, Yvan Saeys and Bert De Rybel Nutrients such as phosphate are limiting in most soils. This has a great impact on crop yield in agriculture. Approaches to overcome these challenges often include using fertilizers, that in turn have a detrimental effect on the environment and our climate. Plants have developed adaptation mechanisms[…]

With this strange and difficult year drawing to a close, I wanted to take the opportunity to update our community on how things have been going at Development through pandemic times. In March, the entire staff of The Company of Biologists decamped from the office and started home working. We’re incredibly lucky to have secure[…]
