That's a wrap! A huge thank you to all who attended our fruitful consortium meeting in Rome, where many questions were answered and discussions were held. Thank you Università Campus Bio-Medico di Roma for organizing this wonderful event. Safe travels and see you next time!

We are hiring!!. PhD contract in our lab at the @CBMSO_CSIC_UAM. Difussion will be appreciated. Details here 👇

Very cool! Improving CRISPR using a single stranded template DNA attached to Cas9 by double-stranded DNA overhangs “High-yield genome engineering in primary cells using a hybrid ssDNA repair template and small-molecule cocktails” @NatureBiotech #synbio nature.com/articles/s41587-0…

In 8 days from reviewer comments (minor revisions) to online publication @Epigenomes, 23 days after initial submission. That was fast! Constructive comments on our review, pleasant experience! Thanks to special issue Academic Editors @ludicroce @lluismorey and editorial staff👍

We are excited to share a new pre-print in which we use acute depletion of the pioneer factor SOX2 to study its role in regulating transcription. This project was spearheaded by @michelamaresca and @TeunvandenBrand in my group. A 🧵below biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

I cannot express how proud I am that this work is finally out. Did you think that the activities of signaling nodes in single cells are unpredictable? Wrong, they are strongly conditioned by the cellular state. science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

Dear cartilage people: we're looking for markers that are articular cartilage specific, preferably antibodies or probes for FISH. Any suggestions? 🙏 #articularcartilage

So happy to be part of this team and to see all of them in real life again!😄

We are happy present our new pre-print on dynamic features of chromosome architecture following acute depletion of WAPL, CTCF and RAD21. Read on for a short thread of our main findings (1/n). biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Help…I’m trying to find results from experiments where aged cells have been reprogrammed by transcription factors (yamanaka factors) and have modified the epigenome. Have I missed this, is my memory failing me, or has this simple question not been addressed?
