The Baker lab had a fantastic experience mentoring POE intern Ethan Wunibald through the summer. He did an excellent job learning an array of techniques in the lab and presenting his findings. We look forward to seeing what he accomplishes next!

Spotted this right outside my apartment. 100% agree with Ben Franklin that the national bird should have been a turkey

Still feels surreal, but I graduated! Big shoutout to @FinnHawkins, my @CReM_Boston family, and @BUMedicine for a transformative six years! #openforpostdocs

What is the origin of our body? Our paper @CellCellPress shows that when a human embryo is one day old and comprises just two cells, only one cell will create most of the fetus in addition to placenta, while the other cell will create placenta. cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092…

"The danger of this kind of catastrophizing is that it sells too well. As it gains momentum, the voices of doomsayers push aside non-doomsday threats happening now, making them appear trifling. AI hallucinations, displacement of human creative work, misinformation, and privacy hazards look inconsequential when stacked up against human annihilation. Why worry about algorithmic bias when we face a robot apocalypse?" go.shr.lc/3QmDVvI

Kind of surreal to share that our manuscript (using organoids and in vivo models to highlight the requirement of Nkx2-1 to maintain progenitor capacity in AEPs) is out in @NatureComms (nature.com/articles/s41467-0…), summarizing a large amount of my thesis work with @DrWillZacharias.
