Super excited to share that ENGRAM is out today! ENGRAM cells are programmed to write their histories into the genome, recording the intensity, duration, and order of biological events simultaneously.

Cute story alert!🧵@Caltech two clueless office mates (@piraner & I) created a tool to control cells with ultrasound. As postdocs (@UCSF & @UWproteindesign), we teamed up again (with @majo__duran & @AdamChazin) to build a tool for engineered cell signaling

Excited to share our human RA-gastruloid model in @NatureCellBio! Early retinoic acid supplementation, followed by later Matrigel addition, robustly induces human embryonic morphologies and diverse cell lineages, including somitic, renal, cardiac, and neural cell types in #gastruloid.
