Kicking off concurrent sessions #TAGC20, "Genetic Control of Development and Regeneration (#Zebrafish)!
@zoom_us tested for all speakers, @snillum1 & I will guide Q&A, 400+ attendees logged in, and go!
First talk by Daniel Zuppo (Tsang lab, UPittsburg) on foxm1 in proliferating cardiomyocytes upon heart injury.
Trx factors & beautiful stainings, what's not to ❤️!
#ZFish20
Next up, Wei Wang @Planaria1 @ScienceStowers on enhancers, their conservation (or lack thereof), and the variations in regenerative capacities in vertebrates.
Killifish transgenics tested in regeneration assays!
#ZFish20 #Killifish20?
Patti Murphy from the Granato lab at UPenn on Robo2 and Type-IV Collagen in axon regeneration is next...
...and that's how you share your beautiful PhD thesis work with 506 (and counting!) attendees in the current #ZFish20 session #TAGC20!
(my apologies if I miss any @ tagging in tweets - chairing, commenting, listening, tweeting is a bit much even from home!)
Moving to a different...scale:
Skin appendage formation decoded at the single-cell level using #zebrafish, from Lauren Saunders of the Trapnel lab in collab with @parichylab!
Handing over chairing to @snillum1, introducing Saulius Sumanas from Cincinnati Children's and his talk on what Etv2-deficient cells are up to when they can't become blood vessels.
#ZFish20 #lateralplatemesodermrocks
Brant Weinstein up now #Zfish20 #TAGC20 on how microRNAs control lymphangiogenesis - the "other" tubes!
574 attendees now, great to see the...shoal? is growing!
#ZFish20
Next up, Haoyu Wan from Ashley Bruce's lab at UToronto on actin and microtubule interactions in the #zebrafish yolk - the strings coordinating gastrulation!
#ZFish20
...and capping off a wonderful and technically nearly flawless (!) #ZFish20 #TAGC20 session: Kryn Stankunas from University of Oregon on the #zebrafish longfin mutant!
And done! First virtual #zebrafish session at #TAGC20 is a wrap.
Congrats and thanks to all speakers for sharing their research with all of us in our homes across the globe.
Looking fwd to the next sessions!
