Very proud to see this work out on bioRxiv. Using genome-scale TAP/Perturb-seq we mapped the function of immune-disease variants to target genes and regulatory cascades. Have a look at the 🧵from @anniquec.bsky.social for more info!
A new lab preprint is up: Work led by our MSc student Jan Sprengel comparing Interventional Causal Structure Learning Algorithms for Gene Regulatory Network Inference from single cell CRISPR perturbation screens 👇 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
Take a look at the data yourself in our interactive browser www.sanger.ac.uk/tool/crispri... and read our paper for lessons learnt on the design of population- and genome scale CRISPR screens
With @leopoldparts.bsky.social and @oliverstegle.bsky.social we comprehensively mapped CRISPRi responses in iPSCs identifying protein complexes as nexus for transcriptional changes and made a first step towards population-scale CRISPR screens to dissect genetic modulation of perturbation responses
We are looking for a postdoc to join our team! If you're interested in translating a cutting edge genomics technology (www.nature.com/articles/s41...) to real-life applications in hematology, this is for you. We offer a unique working environment ON THE BEACH: recruitment.crg.eu/content/jobs...
