Excited to share the second piece of my PhD work! Our paper on generating 2D and 3D spatial transcriptomic maps of whole mouse embryos during early organogenesis with @adrianobolondi @Luyi_T is out in @NatureGenet 🐭🧬 @MPI_MolGen @broadinstitute. nature.com/articles/s4158…

@simonelsasser @MPI_MolGen Thank you so much @simonelsasser! Was a pleasure teaming up with your lab on this journey :)

This work would not have been possible without the work and dedication of my amazing colleagues and collaborators NBailly,CHaggerty,@adrianobolondi, @AbhiSampKumar,@chiara_anania, @FranzefMueller, @_taktas_,@simonelsasser, @helenekretzmer, ZSmith, AMeissner and many others! (9/9)

This antagonistic relationship not only closes a gap in the understudied field of epigenetic regulation in extra-embryonic lineages but might shed light on other contexts with a similar methylome such as human cancers, raising the question of a shared regulatory program. (8/9)

Ever wondered how the peculiar placental epigenome is regulated? We discovered a dynamic DNMT3B/Polycomb-antagonism that maintains it! Beyond thrilled to share my PhD work together with @hetzel_s published @NatureCellBiology. @MPI_MolGen #MeissnerLab (1/9) nature.com/articles/s4155…
