Have you ever wanted to travel back in time and understand how animal life came to be? This series might be your best chance. Join researchers as they ask the same overarching question: what did animal ancestors look like? In an attempt to answer this question, we will discuss modern methods in science, take a look at the fossil record, how cells shape the bodies of different animals and how they evolve. Bring along your burning questions on the origins and evolution of animal life and join in the discussion.

Ever wondered how the first year of a science PhD student can look like? Is it even a job? Literature review, finding keywords, getting to know the studied animals, sometimes frustrating outcome of experiments, learning how to analyze the data and more.

Hey all! Welcome to my new blog post. Today, I’m gonna channel my inner professor and try to explain in simple words how the sea urchin larva nervous system is structured and what is a gene regulatory network. Us, humans when we want to perform a task, e.g. picking up...

Hey there. In this second video I talk about the importance of studying what we call “ugly” species for biomedical, biological and conservation research. Enjoy it. The music comes from parts of the song “Start” by Cambo, licensed under an...

How to dissociate samples into single cells *whilst not lose all hope of eventually becoming a Doctor of Philosophy* There are a LOT of different protocols to dissociate samples into single cells. However, to boil it down, they all use three main drivers: trituration...
