Great to see this work out from our neighbours @mrc-lms.bsky.social driven by Noura Maziak @vaquerizasjm.bsky.social!
With Pico-C they reveal a modular regulatory logic driving genome establishment - congrats to all authors!
Sad to read this. Gail was indeed a giant of developmental biology. I have fond memories of Gail at an Australian devbio workshop (many many years ago), where we travelled together to see Kangaroo Island after the meeting. She was quite an inspiration to me.
We've been inundated (!) with abstracts for BSDB 2026!! Thanks to all who've submitted and to those that have registered! The rooms are going fast!
Don't miss it! Early-bird registration due Monday 9th Feb

My team @ebi.embl.org is open to hosting #ARISE2 fellows!
We‘re especially interested in projects that improve access to single-cell & spatial transcriptomics data (e.g. browsers, standards), or enhance AI-readiness.
Happy to chat if you are applying!

Congratulations to my colleague Will Scott @mrc-lms.bsky.social on his latest work resolving the molecular changes in fat tissue that emerge following weight loss www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Finally out! 🥳 Our paper showing how a transposable element (TE) insertion can cause developmental phenotypes is now published @natgenet.nature.com 🧬🦠🐁
Below is a brief description of the major findings. Check the full version of the paper for more details: www.nature.com/articles/s41588-025-02248-5

Our paper describing the Range Extender element which is required and sufficient for long-range enhancer activation at the Shh locus is now available at @nature.com. Congrats to @gracebower.bsky.social who led the study. Below is a brief summary of the main findings www.nature.com/articles/s41... 1/
Thanks a lot Joaquina!
Many thanks Silvia!
Thanks a lot Juliane!
Thanks a lot Kristina!
Many thanks to @drsingleman.bsky.social for interviewing us about our latest work @imperialmed.bsky.social @mrc-lms.bsky.social - here’s her news story in GEN
www.genengnews.com/topics/genom...
Thanks very much!
I am happy and extremely proud to be able to contribute to this work with Irène Amblard and @vmetzis.bsky.social, where by changing one motif we completely rewired the function of a regulatory element!🔬🧬 Now out in Developmental Cell!
