Happy to announce our new preprint on the ancestry of cell adhesion and self-recognition in animals! We used proteomics and structure-based searches to re-examine the Aggregation Factor from the classical sponge mode first studied by Henry Wilson in 1907! doi.org/10.1101/2024.04.19.5…

Sponges lack muscles & neurons. Yet, they move. How? EMBL Heidelberg Arendt Group @wormduty, @savitski_lab, @Prevedel_Lab & others, showed that sponge movement relies on an ancient relaxant-inflammatory response also found in vertebrate vascular systems. embl.org/news/science/ancien…

Incredible opening talk by Professor Detlev Arendt of EMBL Heidelberg @wormduty on the evolution of neural circuits -- we owe it all to sponges! At the @URNeuroscience Developmental Emergence of Neural Circuit Function symposium #URochesterResearch

Very glad to see this out: A fantastic 10 years collaborative effort in which we integrated transcriptomics with whole-body EM & segmentation. authors.elsevier.com/c/1dYq8…

Huge congrats to Sabina & Tobi, our two first PhD students!! Both have moved on to excellent Postdoc positions, Sabina with Sergiu Pasca @PascaStanford and Tobias with Detlev Arendt @wormduty!
For their outstanding scientific achievements former PhD students Sabina Kanton & Tobias Gerber of @MPI_EVA_Leipzig are awarded the prestigious Otto Hahn Medal for young researchers in the Max Planck Society. Congratulations, Sabina & Tobias! 🥳 @maxplanckpress

We are so excited about our community's first meeting, spanning labs across many countries and continents! We will enjoy Platynereis talks one after the other for 3 days. You don't get that very often! We hope this is the first of many meetings to come. #Platynereis

We have succeeded in generating ~30K #SingleCell transcriptomes of 2 planarian species with our novel dissociation method and our own version of SPLIT-seq. We are preparing a bioRxiv paper describing how, authored by @gact_hell, @spiralcleavage et al. Soon in your preprint feeds!
