The Hydractinia cell atlas reveals cellular and molecular principles of cnidarian coloniality - Nature Communications
Here they generate a cell type atlas of the colonial cnidarian Hydractinia symbiolongicarpus, which reveals that distinct colony parts are mostly made from unique combinations of shared cell types, an...

It was great to be involved in this, after years of joking with @camillectz.bsky.social about her ‘sexual story’ I thought it only right to share it with a meme of its own

Check out our new preprint looking at regeneration from reaggregated cell suspensions in Hydractinia. Once again i-cells are flexing their capacities
#Hydractinia takes regeneration to the extreme¬in a new preprint, Curantz et al. show that dissociated, reaggregated cells can form a new individual. We also show how they do it and which cells types actually contribute to the new individual (tip: not many of them).
