The Node Time Machine – February 2011

Posted by , on 27 February 2025

At the end of each month, I pick a random year from the past 15 years of the Node, and take a look at what people were talking about back then.

Since this is the first time I’m travelling via the Time Machine, I’ve picked the first ever February that the Node experienced, back in 2011. Let’s step into the machine, and turn the dial to February 2011…

Definitions

If you scroll down to the comments section, you might find a few familiar names discussing the definitions of stem cells vs progenitors. 14 years on, what are people’s views on this?

Careers

Here, Sarah Gibb told the story of how she took the leap and applied for a job at the Glasgow Science Centre after her PhD. Since that blog post, we have featured many interesting career stories on the Node. Browse through the collection.

Science and fashion

How amazing is this? Dresses that represent different human embryonic developmental stages. Head over to the website about the exhibit to find out more!

Featured resource

Emma Kemp from EuroStemCell was very active on the Node from 2011-2012. In 2020, EuroStemCell was superseded by EuroGCT, but people can still find useful resources around stem cell research on their website.
