Many thanks to Marc @amoyellab.bsky.social for the very inspiring talk linking metabolism and differentiation in the fly testis at the @imbb-forth.bsky.social Junior scientists retreat. And to our #EU_funded for sponsoring his travelling.
Excited to share our RegVelo paper in Cell

We unify RNA velocity + GRNs into one model → better OOD prediction of perturbations (e.g. gene KOs), with examples incl. neural crest KO predictions 🔬
Big thanks to W Wang, Z Hu & T Sauka-Spengler 🙏
👀Next Wednesday, Oct 22nd, at #FragileNucleosome seminar, we are excited to host @alicelaigle.bsky.social and @seungsookim.bsky.social to tell us about amazing work they are doing!

It was a fantastic exploration during my PhD, a new method, with new struggles. I had an amazing team of Artem and Aleksander to deal with all of them. Also my first experience of project supervision, it was hard but extremely cool. And thanks to @mardzix.bsky.social and Pepe for all the support!

Have you ever wondered how chromatin states shape developmental trajectories? In our preprint, we address this question using single-cell nanoCUT&Tag, a method developed by Marek Bartosovic @mardzix.bsky.social, which simultaneously profiles active H3K27ac and repressive H3K27me3 in the same nucleus
