Happy to have contributed to this beautiful paper led by @JulianMalchow @HelkerLab! Particularly happy that my endothelial Erk sensor fish made with @BenjaminHogan13 did its magic! Always cool to see new mechanisms for asymmetric Erk! @SABE_latrobe @LIMSLTU @LaTrobe_CVR @latrobe
Paper alert 📚 Neural progenitor–derived Apelin controls tip cell behavior and vascular patterning Excited to share my PhD's work, many thanks to all members of the @HelkerLab Lab and @Kazebrafish and @BenjaminHogan13 for the help! science.org/doi/10.1126/scia…

Small but mighty! We have interesting honours project(s) with a brilliant, diverse and supportive team available. Reach out to me or @FavrebulleItia if you are interested.
📢Anyone interested in doing an Honours project in Brisbane? And in the cool model that zebrafish is?? We have a very interesting project on the short term effects of noradrenergic system impairment in zebrafish. Contacts: me or @DrCarlieCullen #zebrafish #honours
