![spotLights Ep 10: preLights in conversation with Helena Crellin
Welcome to spotLights, the interview series that shines a spotlight on cutting-edge biological research and the brilliant minds behind it. spotLights is brought to you by preLights, the preprint highlights service run by the biological community and supported by The Company of Biologists.
In this tenth episode, recorded at the Biologists @ 100 conference in Liverpool, UK, we talk to Helena Crellin, PhD student in the lab of Clare Buckley at the University of Cambridge, UK, and discuss the preprint she presented at the conference introducing a novel optogenetic technique in zebrafish.
Helena: “We were really excited by… [this] technical advance because it let us look at how forces are propagated through complex tissues during development.”
