Cellular signaling (BMP/SMAD) at the helm of chromosomal instability in cancer, similar as what we described during development and lineage specification. Congrats to our collaborators at the Bastians lab.

Crick researchers have developed a new stem cell model of the mature amniotic sac development.
The team is now exploring the potential for using these new 3D models in clinical applications, such as cornea reconstruction and treating ulcers.

Aneuploidy is the leading cause of pregnancy loss. In work led by @saracarioscia.bsky.social and @aabiddanda.bsky.social, we reanalyzed genetic testing data from 139,416 IVF embryos to discover variants associated with recombination phenotypes and aneuploidy risk. www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1...

I arrived to Sergio AcebrΓ³n lab in July 2019, and I have truly enjoyed Heidelberg vibrant environment since then. Great colleagues, tons of fun, research and also (sometimes) desperation, but a group caring for eachother overall. It made so easy to progress and develop my scientific ideas.

Last few months have been of change. I finished my postdoc at @cosheidelberg.bsky.social and moved to Belgium to begin my research group at @iribhm.bsky.social. I will reflect here my thoughts about the last years experience.

Figure 1 Schematics of extra-embryonic mesoderm development across species. (A) An intermediate stage of reptilian development displaying the vascularized trilaminar omphalopleure, also known as choriovitelline membrane, and the bilaminar omphalopleure. (B) A later developmental stage in squamates, showing a feature unique to squamates: the yolk cleft. The composition of the amnion, allantois and chorion is similar in all reptiles. (C) E1 (24 h) chick embryo showing the primitive streak, area vitellina and vasculosa. (D) E10 chick embryo displaying the localization of vascularized and non-vascularized extra-embryonic mesoderm (EXM) cells.
In this Review, @eliananehme.bsky.social, @amiteshp.bsky.social, Isabelle Migeotte and @pasquelab.bsky.social give an overview of the embryonic origin and function of extra-embryonic mesoderm in vertebrates from in vivo studies.

Novel insights on cellular signaling regulation of DNA replicative dynamics.
BMP signaling not only prevents from replicative stress in pluripotency, as we described recently (www.nature.com/articles/s41...) but also drives regeneration through same mechanisms.
www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Surprisingly we find that as few as 2 starting p53KO cells will compete in an environment of @300 WT cells. Also, see an input for BMP & Wnt signalling that mirrors work on the control of chromosomal segregation in stem cells www.nature.com/articles/s41...
