Check out our new paper in Development! Titled: Specific mitotic events drive left-right organizer development.
We also did a fun interview with development titled: The people behind the papers- Yan Wu, Yiling Lan and Heidi Hehnly.
And a fun highlight of the paper can be found titled: Mitotic events help distinguish left from right.
Congrats to all the lab and everyone involved!

Dr. Hehnly had a great time visiting Corfu and talking about embryogenesis and possibly conditions where an artificial womb could be imagined. Dr. Hehnly went to Corfu, Greece, with her long time collaborator, Dr. Boryana Rossa, to be TTT fellows. You can find more here.
The Ionian University’s Department of Audio & Visual Arts successfully concluded the TTTfellows: Art and Science Residency Fall 2024, a dynamic fusion of artistic and scientific inquiry held from September 23 to October 4 (online) and October 7-18 in-person on the island of Corfu. Organized within the framework of Rewilding Cultures and co-financed by the European Union, this residency fostered cross-disciplinary collaboration and featured innovative projects by artists and researchers Dr. Heidi Hehnly-Chang and Dr. Boryana Rossa. Over the course of the residency, participants explored hybrid methods blending biotechnology, mythology, and marine biology. The event was hosted in collaboration with the Corfu Central Public Historical Library, Corfu Tech Lab, Corfu Aquarium, and the Bioinformatics and Human Electrophysiology Lab (BiHELab), creating a multifaceted environment for experiential learning and creative exploration. The residency included an online component where the fellows interacted on the topics of of human genetic engineering with the "oracles": curators Dr. Sunčica Ostoić and Dr. Olga Majcen Linn and artists Charlotte Jarvis and Laura Splan.
