Daniel V. Oliveira

15th PhD Conference in Dev Cell biology just started and it looks like another year packed with great science, opening with brilliant @ruibenedito.bsky.social keynote!

John Gurdon was a true giant:
- founder of cell reprogramming;
- founder of molecular embryology;
- unabashed advocate for basic research;
- advisor to numerous successful trainees/PIs;
- gentle human that touched so many.
In dark times with science under attack, let his vision be a guiding light.

🧬 If you’re at #NotchMeetingXIII, don’t miss Poster #36 by our talented PhD student @fabioturetti.bsky.social from the @maseklab.bluesky.social He’s presenting “CK1α-Dependent Phosphorylation of NOTCH1 Is Required for Transcriptional Activity of N1ICD.”
Come by, say hi, and chat Notch signaling! 🔬✨

@maseklab.bsky.social

If you’re around at the #NotchMeetingXIII poster session today, come by to check out Poster #9! 🧬✨
@anna_frontino will be there presenting our shared work on how Jagged1 variants shape liver vascular and biliary development.
Stop by to say hi and chat Notch!

Grateful to the Company of Biologists and @dmmjournal.bsky.social for awarding me a Travel Grant to attend Notch Meeting XIII, starting today in Athens! 🇬🇷
Excited to share our latest work and connect with the amazing Notch community. #DMMgrants #NotchMeeting2025 #NotchSignaling #Notch #Liverdisease

The new Department of Functional Genetics at the Max Planck Institute for Molecular Biomedicine is looking for scientists at any level. 👉 mpi-muenster.mpg.de/780013/profil

🖥️ STIM, a new tool developed at Janelia & @mdc-berlin.bsky.social‬, aligns sections of irregularly spaced 2D spatial transcriptomics data & renders them as images to reconstruct 3D volumes of gene expression, allowing researchers to see how all genes are expressed & organized in 3D tissue. 🧬

N35 :)

If you wanna discuss Notch signaling and liver diseases with pronounced vascular phenotypes be sure to pass by my poster n37. #TCTeAC

Mapping effective microRNA pairing beyond the seed using abasic modifications Abstract. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs that regulate gene expression by base-pairing to complementary sites in messenger RNAs (mRNAs). The p

Excited to share our latest work, published today in Nucleic Acids Research:

"Mapping effective microRNA pairing beyond the seed using abasic modifications" - led by a former PhD student, now graduate of the lab, Dr David Kosek, in collaboration with Katja Petzold.

Ectoderm barcoding reveals neural and cochlear compartmentalization Placodes and the neural crest are defining features of vertebrates. In this study, we investigate their lineages in mice using in utero approaches. We demonstrated that nanoinjection at embryonic day ...

Hot off the press! 🧬🔬

We developed in utero nano-injection to label & trace the mouse neural plate and otic placode using next generation single cell lineage tracing. We couple progenitors to mature cell types in the CNS & resolve the lineages of cells in the hearing organ:

Huge congratulations!!! 🎉Amazing work as always.

Man... If only my results looked as good as Homer does in this picture 😅

Check out the new paper from our lab that is now out @EmboMolMed
A very nice collaboration that I was lucky to be a part involving development biologists, hepatologists and immunologist. For more about the paper check the nice recap 👇

If you are around at the #IVBM2024, come and stop by poster 02.081 where I will present my joint project with @anna_frontino94 introducing two new mouse strains with mutations in Jag1 from patients with ALGS and biliary atresia that have pronounced vascular phenotypes.

#IVBM2024 is about to start! Thank you @DMM_Journal for granting me with one of the #DMMgrants to allow me to be present at @IVBM2024

Masek lab rocking the talk at the 1st departmental conference from the Department of Cell Biology at @science_charles. Great job from our amazing PhD student @anna_frontino94 and our great PI @JanMasekLab.

And lastly I would like to thank all my colleagues at NVS department at KI for their friendship and help throughout my PhD years.
