Excited to share I’m starting my group in Dublin this September, supported by a Research Ireland Pathway award. We will work on neurulation mechanics using chicken embryos and human iPSCs. Looking forward to this new adventure! #newPI #womeninSTEM

Figure excerpt showing recoil following annual laser ablation of WT and VANGL2-knock in neuroepithelial cultures
2. iPSC neuroepithelial models by @hpscenthusiast.bsky.social identifying a patient mutation in VANGL2 which diminishes apical constriction in this human model

In this work we establish a platform for robust modelling of iPSC-derived neuropethelium. Using this, we characterise disease-associated phenotypes and show that a patient identified Vangl2 mutation disrupts apical constriction. Huge thanks to @emaniou.bsky.social @paolodecoppi.bsky.social

Development is a leading research journal in the field of developmental biology, covering stem cells, regeneration, evo-devo, epigenetics, morphogenesis and more. @biologists.bsky.social
Studying cells inside embryos since way before it was cool.

We are passionate about how cells squeeze through tiny in spaces in vivo, and how they get to divide and make fate decisions whilst they are at it!
We love fish, frogs, live microscopy and arts and crafts.
