Very sad news, John Gurdon has died.

A developmental biologist's developmental biologist, Nobel prize winner

His work is the foundation of much of today's dev & stem cell bio.

An inspiration to many, including me. Always asking questions & wanting the answers

We're hiring (again)!

We are looking for an associate professor in cell and molecular biology, with a particular focus on immunology (defined broadly)

If you have a great record and exciting plans, consider joining our thriving and welcoming department

Full professor complaining to an assistant professor on how hard it is to get funding nowadays

How nearly dying helped me discover my own cure (and many more) Physician-scientist David Fajgenbaum was dying from a rare disease that didn't have a cure — until he discovered a lifesaving drug that wasn't originally intended for his condition. In an astonishing ...

Just watched Dr. David Fajgenbaum’s TED Talk, what an incredible story. Idea of #everycure is amazing.

Just a random thought:
Are scientists forgetting how to ask questions that don’t involve multiomics? 🤪
Or doing simple lab experiments?
Majority what i see everywhere is publication oriented research than curiosity based 🫣
Maybe I’m just an outlier 🔬👻

When the reviewers' identities are revealed

Indeed, had an amazing time co -organising and co-chairing GRS EDK 2025 with you

Following an amazing GRS, the GRC brought even more existing science. From rete ridges across the animal kingdom to wild skin organoids and sex-biased skin physiology. It was also a great opportunity to reconnect with former colleagues and friends (#Watt Lab Family 😀).

A month ago, I had the joy of co-chairing the GRS meeting on epithelial differentiation & keratinization with my dear friend @drpriyankabhosale.bsky.social. Huge thanks to the trainees:you made it so worthwhile. Also hugely grateful to the panel speakers who provided an honest and moving discussion.
