We won third place at the molecular and cellular biology department Halloween party!!
Happy Halloween from the @BenhamPyleLab!
Congratulations, @BenhamPyleLab, @BoeynaemsSteven and @HongjieLi5, recipients of a 2024 @NIH Director's New #Innovator Award! @bcmhouston @BCMCancerCenter @bcmgenetics @TCHResearchNews @CPRITTexas commonfund.nih.gov/newinnovator/A…
Thrilled to announce that @BlairBenhamPyle has been named an NIH New Innovator! This support from the @NIH_CommonFund is so meaningful and we can’t wait to share the resulting science with you!
I’m so excited to join this fantastic group of early career scientists! Big shoutout to my @bcmhouston neighbors @HongjieLi5 and @BoeynaemsSteven, my fellow @Planaria1 lab alum @longhua_guo, and my former @stanfordcbio classmate @dianyang1117!
First @BenhamPyleLab retreat is in the books! After a day of lab brainstorming we got to enjoy some much deserved relaxation… tie dye lab coats, glass painting, brunch at Lucille’s, and an afternoon at the Houston Museum of Natural Science! @hmns @BCMFromtheLabs
YES!! BIG congrats to Jake on his NSFGRFP 🎉🍾🎊 #ProudPI #JumpingForJoyInMyOffice
We are celebrating today !!!! Congratulations to our very own Jake Chamblee for being offered an NSF graduate research fellowship!! Well deserved!! @BCMFromtheLabs

Interested in planarian #flatworms? Listen to Dr. @BlairBenhamPyle's podcast discussing their #STEMCells, and new methods to address big questions in #regeneration. @bcmhouston
We're back with a brand new episode! Dr. @BlairBenhamPyle from @bcmhouston joins us to talk about her research on #planarian flatworms and how they regenerate! 🪱 Listen now: bit.ly/3xt5EE5
@BlairBenhamPyle joined the hosts of @stemcellpodcast to discuss why planarians and their stem cells are an amazing model to explore the cellular mechanisms that underly indefinite regenerative capacity. Check it out! @BCMFromtheLabs @CAGTHouston

We are excited to welcome Amit Dubey as our first postdoctoral scholar!! So excited to see all the great science he does over the next few years… stayed tuned!

@BlairBenhamPyle visited the @MSarsCentre to discuss how scRNAseq and spatial transcriptomics can identify new cell types underlying regenerative capacity. And, she got to see all the fun creatures of the @Pawel_Burkhardt, @lionlchristiaen, @PRHSteinmetz, and Chatzigeorgiou labs!
Amazing talk today by Blair Benham-Pyle from @BenhamPyleLab @BCMHouston on how genes, cell types, and microenvironments are required for planarian regeneration. Thank you so much for visiting us! 🙏👏 📸 @KTGarschall @UiB
Congratulations to Jake Chamblee for being the first Benham-Pyle Lab graduate student to pass their qualifying exam! Amazing job and lots of cool science to look forward to! @BCMFromtheLabs
Are you looking for #postdoc opportunities in institutions at the @TXMedCenter? Check out #postdocHouston on May 18. @bcmhouston @MDAndersonNews @MethodistHosp @UTHealthHouston postdochouston.org
@intheOR @HouChristianU Love it! So glad it’s working and your students got to see it in person :)
This #FlatwormFriday @BlairBenhamPyle talked to the theater audience @recroomhtx about what we can learn about cloning and nature vs. nurture from planaria! @BCMFromtheLabs @CAGTHouston @bcmhouston
Tonight I had a great time participating in forum night @recroomhtx! What do biology, psychotherapy, and theater have in common? We found out with their performance of A Number (playing through Feb 25) & great discussion on cloning, identity, ethics, and human relationships.
We just posted a new version of our planarian spatial transcriptomics story! Lots of new analysis & RNAi functional testing. Check it out! @ScienceStowers @fg_mann @DungVuu @S_Nowotarski @Planaria1 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
@alondraeu @BCMFromtheLabs @bcmhouston @CAGTHouston @zeiss_micro This is perfection.
It’s #FlatwormFriday and we’ve got a new toy!!! We are taking all the pretty pictures now, including some fun shots of dividing planarian stem cells :) @BCMFromtheLabs @bcmhouston @CAGTHouston @zeiss_micro
Glial regeneration and development in planarians!! Woohoo indeed!

@peiferlabunc Thanks, we’re excited! We see lots of happy planarians in our future!
It’s #FlatwormFriday and we celebrated the commissioning of our planarian aquatic environment! This multi-tiered flowing river will house our growing animal colony starting (fingers-crossed) next week! Wish the sentinel planaria good luck and good health :)
