Cool presentation in our @BergstralhLab /Peifer/Williams joint lab meeting by Scott William's lab member Juliet King! Fun fact, she's a double Peifer lab grandchild, working at Bucknell with Julie Gates and then with @FoxLabDuke
Are you thinking about a postdoc and want to help learn how cells change shape and move during embryonic development, and how this may go wrong in disease? Our lab has funded positions for postdocs to explore these and other questions (Thread) Please RT
In pursuit of our mission to highlight Black excellence in cancer research and medicine, Black in Cancer is proud to announce our Inaugural Postdoctoral Fellowship in collaboration with the Emerald Foundation.
Very excited to see this @Dev_journal special issue highlighting the intersection of organismal development and human disease! Includes the last paper from my PhD in @SWilliamsLab exploring the genetic mechanisms of cleft palate associated with CLPED1 dev.biologists.org/content/147/21…

While this may be a strange time for us, these days feel normal for animals at Shedd. Our caregivers are constantly providing new experiences for the animals to explore and express their natural behaviors with. Let us know what penguin activities you would like to see! (3/3)
The adventure continues! 🐧🐧 This morning, Edward and Annie explored Shedd’s rotunda. They are a bonded pair of rockhopper penguins, which means they are together for nesting season. Springtime is nesting season for penguins at Shedd, and this year is no different! (1/3) 👇
Penguins in the Amazon?! 🐧🌴 Some of the penguins went on a field trip to meet other animals at Shedd. Wellington seemed most interested in the fishes in Amazon Rising! The black-barred silver dollars also seemed interested in their unusual visitor.
The Laurin lab is recruiting!! We are looking for a dynamic team member that will help set up our installations and initiate our research program. Please share with your network!
Wooot!! 🍾 We are celebrating Kendall's newest publication 📝 His exciting work elucidates a mechanism that corrects the orientation of a dividing cell in the later transition to telophase. Thread👇Read about its implications in cell fate outcomes and epithelial stratification

Excited to share the labs latest work. Led by @kevinmbyrd, this study finds a unique population of stem cells in the roof of the mouth that responds to chewing and injury. Read the @NIH paper summary tinyurl.com/r4fvx27 or Kevin's thread. Thank you to all our collaborators!
Can you ever get tired of the epithelium? During @MBLPhys we visualized for the first time a growing scale in a developing moth wing. @zeiss_micro Scales have a very precise microstructure that scatters light and generates structural color. #teamchitin Cyan-Nuclei, Magenta-Actin
Check out our first preprint 📰 🤯 @lough_kendall describes how mitotic spindle orientation is really a two-step process, and how basal membrane attachment controls the telophase correction step.

🍾Congratulations to Scott for getting TENURE today!!!! 🥳👏🍾 👨🏻🔬 His enthusiasm for science is contagious. @UNC and his trainees are lucky to have such an amazing professor.🍾
#TriCytoskeleton2018 what's happening here? Oh yeah, the 5th edition of the TCM. Excited to see new faces in the Cytoskeleton community at the @TriCytoskeleton meeting this year.
