Nice work from Du & Warmflash using micropatterned hESCs to dissect midbrain-hindbrain boundary formation
Timing of WNT signalling, not strength or duration, specifies midbrain-hindbrain boundary
Good example of recapitulating developmental signalling in vitro

I attended a talk by
@deisseroth.bsky.social —the guy who made #optogenetics a household name in #neuroscience. It was so inspiring almost like a TED Talk specially who have been told "there is no benefit in doing basic science research" and still said "watch me"!!!
Excited to start my second rotation in
@labnowakowski.bsky.social!!! will be working on an exciting project on cortical folding.
I hope things gets better for #internationalstudents #PhD #US #gradstudent
Back in 2012, I was a high schooler fascinated by the groundbreaking discovery of iPSCs. Fast forward 12 years, and today I had the surreal honor of meeting the man behind it all—Prof. Yamanaka! Truly a full-circle, fanboy moment. 🚀

You need something to calm your nerves and stop #overthinking during your #PhD.
I chose to explore painting for the first time. Fingers crossed🤞
