A new episode of spotLights is live! In this fourth installment, we talk to PhD fellows Daniel Baird and Oskar Kaabar Thomsen at the University of Copenhagen about their recent preprint entitled “TAK1 operates at the primary cilium in non-canonical TGFB/BMP signaling to control heart development”. Link to related preLights post.

In this episode, they discuss why TAK1 signaling is crucial for heart development, the surprising journey behind their research and reveal their favourite amino acids!
