Cells in a regenerating axolotl limb somehow know their place—but how?
In our new paper, we trace the dynamics of positional memory, release open-source code to quantify it, and introduce a theoretical framework for proximalisation.

Chromosome-scale genome assembly reveals how repeat elements shape non-coding RNA landscapes active during newt limb regeneration

Understanding molecular mechanisms behind newts’ exceptional regenerative capability has been limited because of their large, repeat-element-rich genome. Brown et al. present the most complete chromos...

As you might guess I spend a lot of time thinking about tail regeneration. So I figured we might as well put this in a review article. Glad to see this out before the end of the year and thankful for the input from @murawalalab.bsky.social www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

The evolutionary origin and mechanism of chordate tail regeneration. An ancient tale?

Chordate tail regeneration represents the remarkable ability of some chordates to partially or completely regenerate a significant portion of their pr…
