Do wild-caught embryos develop in the same way as embryos cultured in the lab? This summer, Beke and Mette visited Luis at IMEV in Villefranche-sur-Mer, France, to start exploring this question in the marine annelid Platynereis dumerilii.

Jan and Paul are back at MBL with a Flamingo microscope for the Zebrafish Development and Genetics course! Two weeks of exciting imaging sessions and zebrafish science are now underway.

Back from the International Polychaete Conference at the Senckenberg Museum in Frankfurt! A big thanks to the organisers and everyone who made #IPC15 such an enjoyable and inspiring meeting. I learned a lot about polychaete biodiversity.

Happy to share our contribution to this new work led by @michalis-averof.bsky.social! @bekeloh.bsky.social and @metteh-thorsager.bsky.social tested membrane tags in the annelid Platynereis dumerilii — many reached the cell membrane, and several also label the developing nervous system in the larvae.
Finding molecular tags that localise fluorescent proteins to the cell membrane was the goal of our latest paper, now published in Development @dev-journal.bsky.social. The tags act as address labels, sending proteins to the cell membrane, where they highlight the shape and arrangement of cells. 2/9
Targeting the cell membrane in established and emerging model organisms
Summary: Screening a toolkit of diverse membrane-localising tags identifies candidates that efficiently localise proteins to the plasma membrane in a wide range of animals and choanoflagellates.

Huisken lab is at #EED2026! @metteh-thorsager.bsky.social & @bekeloh.bsky.social will show how we use #Flamingo #light-sheet microscopy to address biological questions in the annelid #Platynereis, with imaging of the developing nervous system as an example (Platy Satellite Meeting & Poster P146).
