🚨Job alert in theory/math devbio 🚨
I’m currently advertising postdoc positions to join my group. We’re building reaction-diffusion models to understand some of the crazy things embryos can do. We are based in a beautiful part of Scotland :). Please share! www.abdnjobs.co.uk/vacancy/rese...

PS The lead author, Daniel Muzatko, is currently on the postdoc job market so please get in touch if you are looking for a stellar new postdoc!

PPS The Hiscock Lab is still actively hiring embryo-curious theoreticians of all types, see here for opportunities: twhiscock.github.io

GitHub - hiscocklab/ReactionDiffusion.jl Contribute to hiscocklab/ReactionDiffusion.jl development by creating an account on GitHub.

Along the way, we developed a freely available Julia package that allows complex reaction-diffusion PDEs to be analysed quickly (millions of parameter sets per minute) and easily (in just a few lines of intuitive code!). Check it out here: github.com/hiscocklab/R...

🚨 theory/math devbio preprint alert!!! 🚨

Led by my v. talented PhD student, Daniel Muzatko, we’ve found some rather general and intriguing constraints on reaction-diffusion systems that allow them to self-organize developmental patterns:

A computational pipeline for spatial mechano-transcriptomics - Nature Methods The authors present a computational framework that leverages mechanical force inference and spatial transcriptomics to enable analyses of the interplay between the transcriptomic and mechanical state.

🚨 Paper Alert 🚨
Absolutely delighted to share our last paper on "spatial mechano-transcriptomics" @naturemethods👇!!
