It is with infinite sadness that we learned of the passing of Clarisse Orniacki.
She joined @vdoye.bsky.social lab and defended her thesis in December 2022 and pursued her career with a postdoc in⬠@tedfon.bsky.social at McGill University in Montreal .

Itβs so exciting to see more and more scientific agencies and institutions joining π¦
I feel like this is exactly what was missing on other platforms. In my opinion, it will definitely help strengthen the scientific community here! πͺπ§¬

Our study published today on #bioRxiv describe the identification of a deaminase that converts 5mC to T, enabling direct sequencing of the human methylome and genome. This achievement was made possible through a collaborative effort across all departments at #NEB.

The emergence of Sox and POU transcription factors predates the origins of animal stem cells
Nature Communications - The pluripotency program is maintained by transcription factors from the Sox and POU families. Here they identify SOX and POU factors from unicellular relatives of animals...
SOX and POU are crucial Transcription Factors in animal development, believed to be innovations of this group. Here we find them in unicellular relatives of animals. And hold tight, you can use a choanoflagellate π¦ SOX gene to make a full chimeric π ! Read more here π§΅: rdcu.be/d0dPN 1/6

I've been meaning to write a lengthy thread about our experiences with DNA methylation editing in mouse ESCs if that would be useful (or interesting?) for a niche audience here. tl;dr: it was frustrating but we learned a lot, and it ended with our shiny new pub (1/17) www.nature.com/articles/s41...
