Always lovely to be in Vienna - wonderful visit yesterday at ISTA. Grateful to everybody who met me and shared their work - it is really a privilege to have a day of amazing science hearing what people are passionate about and learn new things. Thank you so much @kichevalab.bsky.social for having me

Rapid transcriptional response to a dynamic morphogen by time integration During development, cells must interpret extracellular signals with speed and accuracy. While morphogen gradients pattern tissues, how cells respond to dynamic morphogens remains unclear. Here, we inv...

New work on dynamics of morphogen signaling:

Cells decode BMP gradient via temporal integration of signaling level, not instantaneous thresholds. While GRN gates response to provide additional spatial input

Self-organized pattern formation in the developing mouse neural tube by a temporal relay of BMP signaling Lehr and Brückner et al. develop an in vitro differentiation system that produces self-organized patterns of cell types similar to the ones observed in the dorsal neural tube. They find that to form t...
