Fabulous 'Lab Day' today to welcome all the wonderful newcomers! (feat. @j_cantoral 's French gastruloids 🇫🇷, and Chris's exceptional chicken drawing🐔😂) Cannot WAIT to see what this brilliant bunch gets up to! 😊
Since these were being handed out by @MindAllies this morning, we wanted to reiterate that the Moris Lab is committed to promoting good mental health and encouraging a supportive environment for everyone 👍👨🏽🔬🧑🔬👨🏿🔬👩🏻🔬👩🏼💻 @TheCrick
Really happy to see this out, where we discuss the opportunities and considerations of in vitro embryo model applications with @alevlab @martinperaJAX @AMartinezArias "Biomedical and societal impacts of in vitro embryo models of mammalian development" cell.com/stem-cell-repo…
Our #newlab wishlist... 🤩🌈
Last weekend was grey and dull, so I made an #animation of the first cleavage division of a mouse embryo!🎇 Freely inspired by work from @SchuhLab (Scheffler et al 2021 @NatureComms - more info below). #SciArtSunday #SciArt #scicomm #sciviz
Hello world! This is the new twitter account for the Moris lab - bringing you updates on our research. It's the first day that we're in our new lab space, and we're so excited for all the cool science we're going to be doing here!
