C. elegans: from genome editing to imaging

Pleased to be again a trainer for the EMBO Practical Course: C. elegans, from genome editing to imaging.

Register if you want to learn about (one of) the best model organism for genetics and imaging

Happy to share our last protocol for efficient endogenous gene tagging in Medaka. We hope this will encourage genetic and imaging approaches in other non-conventional fish models. A big thank you to all co-authors, and congrats to the first author Simon Knoblich

Selection-free CRISPR-Cas9 editing protocol for distant Dictyostelid species Dictyostelids are a species-rich clade of cellular slime molds that are widely found in soils and have been studied for over a century. Most research focusses on Dictyostelium discoideum , which – due...

Our effort to extend genome editing across species just got a new member. This time, not a marine organism, nor a vertebrate, but the beautiful Dictyostelium discoideum and other Dictyostelids. In collaboration with van Gestel group
