Join is in Budapest in October! For the 6th time, all things epigenetics, gene and genome regulation and more. A fantastic opportunity to present, to talk to speakers and colleagues in a friendly, informal setting at a great location. Please note, travel grant deadline will expire soon.
In 2015, the Los Angeles SPCA gave their annual National Hero Dog award to a tabby cat named Tara. Yes, you read that right, a cat was given a dog award.

⭕️ The STRAIGHT-IN dual plasmids are now available on Addgene! 🧬
@addgene.bsky.social
A full STRAIGHT-IN kit with 20+ plasmids, including everything needed to set up and run the platform, is coming soon 🔥
Stay tuned 🚀
We are over the moon! 🎈 Dr. Marieke Oudelaar joins the MPI-IE as a new #MaxPlanck Director, heading the newly established Department of Genome Biology
She studies how the 3D folding of DNA controls gene expression – more details below ⬇️
Welcome to #Freiburg, @mariekeoudelaar.bsky.social!
And more plasmids for using STRAIGHT-IN Dual from the Galloway Lab here: www.addgene.org/browse/artic...

An historical figure of the transcription field has gone. Founder of @igbmc.bsky.social where I started my career. A great enabler as well.
Excellent opportunity @mrc-lms.bsky.social for a human physiologist to start their own group. Deadline 4th May.
Core funding, excellent package.

1/n What fraction of the human genome is essential for cells?
Excited to share our preprint that explores this question by combining an unusual CRISPR system, phage promoters, and thousands of deletion launchpads.

Pierre Chambon was a great scientist. And a good man too. He alone opposed to leading British embryologists during the evaluation of a case of scientific misconduct more than 40 years ago, to defend young scientists against an establishment to which he belonged. An unforgettable lesson. RIP Pierre 💐

Our latest work is out at @natbiomedeng.nature.com!🚀
We present STRAIGHT-IN Dual — a platform for precise, allele-specific integration of two large DNA payloads into human iPSCs, enabling more sophisticated control of complex genetic programs.
