Our successful webinar series continues in 2021, with early-career researchers presenting their papers and a chance to virtually network with the developmental biology community afterwards. Here, Wael El-Nachef discusses the origins of the postnatal enteric nervous system using zebrafish as a model.

Life after a Travelling Fellowship

Ahead of the upcoming application deadline for a Travelling Fellowship on 31 May, Sina Krokowski talks about the ongoing impact of her trip in 2015, when she visited the Carballido-López lab in Paris to learn a technique that was vital for her PhD.

#DevBiolWriteClub: you can’t do it alone

Professor John Wallingford is back on the Node, this time emphasising the importance of gathering feedback on your writing and doing this early on in the process.
