Take two of srsly moving to Bluesky #sciencetwitter we gotta skeedaddle 🏃🏻‍♀️

This is great! @NIAIDNews have launched a collection of public domain illustrations (currently 550 individual icons) bioart.niaid.nih.gov

@BonifacinoJuan @iamscicomm You can also try the parallel project scidraw.io

Because of annoying complications with the use of images prepared on BioRender @iamscicomm for publication or presentations, our lab will be exploring open-source alternatives like bioicons.com or drawing our own images with Illustrator.

Much of the success of breakthroughs, such as AlphaFold, is thanks to a database of protein structures dreamed up in the 1960s by Helen Berman go.nature.com/4hp4UCP

GWAS for Nobel prize laureates.

To launch this collection the following #Review is free to download for 1 month: From computational models of the splicing code to regulatory mechanisms and therapeutic implications go.nature.com/4gPju63 by @tiny_captain, @OscarWilkins16, @nils_f_wagner, @gagneurlab & @ule_lab

Our paper on cryptic splicing-controlled protein expression, which we hope will inspire safer and more adventurous gene therapy approaches for ALS and FTD, has been published in @ScienceMagazine science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

We are finally here. Thanks to @OscarWilkins16 and @FrattaLab gave me this wonderful chance to participate in this fantastic research. Creation of de novo cryptic splicing for ALS and FTD precision medicine | Science science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Hot on the heels of the review comes @OscarWilkins16 beautiful work in @ScienceMagazine describing a new therapeutic approach for ALS designed using SpliceAI to implement directed in silico evolution science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Honoured to have written this review with Jernej Ule’s lab on the splicing code, spanning modeling, mechanisms and its implication for therapeutics designs. Wonderful teamwork.

@AArgoetti thank you!!

@tiny_captain Congratulations Charlotte! 🎉👏

in this article we delve into the world of splicing models! i specifically focused on the latest omics technologies that will help us to interpret and train models, looking towards future opportunities. lots of biorxiv citations because the field is moving so fast!!!

was very fun to work with @nils_f_wagner and @gagneurlab on this and also a great opportunity to highlight @OscarWilkins16's awesome work designing therapeutics using splicing models

🚨The Briscoe lab are hiring! Apply by Oct 9 to: • build custom single-cell technologies to study dev bio • collaborate on projects spanning cancer therapy, immune profiling and neurodegenerative disease • learn valuable skills for academia or industry crick.ac.uk/careers-study/…

School’s back and so are we with another co-working session and social! This time we’ll be at the @SGDPCentreKCL, with the social being opened up to all ECR’s within the centre 😎 As always, free 🍕 and 🍻🥤 eventbrite.com/e/londonomics-…

@firewomon @CityCorpHeath And how exactly are we supposed to prove we were “born female in sex”?

On this warm day, women created a physical barrier to allow other women to swim without male intrusion in the historic Hampstead Heath Ladies’ Pond. Take note, @CityCorpHeath. Give women back our female-only space! #NoMenBeyondThisPoint #WomenHoldingTheLine

How can cellular signalling swiftly & selectively remodel the transcriptome to drive biological transition? How this switch is orchestrated has been a mystery... 🧵 nature.com/articles/s4159…

I'm excited for whoever will employ @kittybmurphy - she's an incredible computational geneticist and will be the most amazing addition to any team she joins. Super proud to see this superstar student move on and develop her academic career 🥰

come find some summer motivation with us! or at least free pizza :D

Today is the day, it's been over a year in the making. #Bioconda now supports OSX-arm64 runners and builders! #bioconda for Apple silicon is here!
