Exciting news! We have a funded 4-year PhD studentship starting in Sept 2025. This will use the new "Multiscope" parallelised microscope to study the effect of neuroendocrine signalling on feeding behaviour. Answer fundamental bioscience questions using high throughput imaging!

We've found a settlement cue for our favourite #Platynereis larvae - microalgae! Just look at its little mouth quivering in excitement 😍 Read more in our @biorxivpreprint with @Ecotox_Cam and @JekelyLab here: doi.org/10.1101/2024.01.23.5…

Why microalgae? Because when you're old enough to eat, it's delicious and nutritious! Microalgae, especially diatoms, can benefit your #Platynereis culture 🪱💪 & enhance growth.
