How does a single cell become a complete living thing? Jan van IJken's six-minute #video traces an alpine newt's embryonic development, demonstrating how life builds itself. From first cell division to a beating heart, we can see the universal pattern of how organisms grow. 🧬🌱

It's embryogenesis in microscopic detail: watch cells divide, specialize, and organize into a living creature.

Heading to SynBioBeta to be on a panel about art & science. These conferences offer an intriguing mix of science, policy, futurism, industry boosterism & the occasional sideshow from outer space.

All across the USA, anti-scientific mobs are looking for research laboratories to vandalize and scientific careers to foreclose.

Yet astounding advances in biological science keep happening despite everything.
