Very excited to share our latest work where we used genome-wide CRISPR screening to define the regulators of human naive pluripotent stem cell reprogramming. 🥳
Check out the tweetorial below for more info. 👇

Paper alert! 🥳🎉 Excited to share our latest study where we use genome-wide CRISPR screening to define the essential regulators and major impediments of reprogramming to human naive pluripotency - led by @Mandy_Collier and @bendall_adam

Can metabolism regulate more than bioenergetics during human development? Our new study says YES! We show that metabolism influences cell fate choice in human naïve pluripotent stem cells, histone acetylation, and trophectoderm maturation. rb.gy/spqr9j @NatureCellBio

📢 Ready to rethink XIST? Our latest work, now in Cell, challenges two fundamental assumptions about XIST: its cis-limited action, and its role in equalizing gene expression between XX and XY genotypes.

Congratulations to all authors!! Can't wait to apply this technology to some of my work 🧬
It's time to bring single cell secretion measurement into the multiomics family! Check out our recent BioRxiv submission where we found unexpected relationships between VEGF-A secretion, the VEGFA mRNA, and the cell state: biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor…

I’m happy to share our new paper with @LabMomoko published today cell.com/stem-cell-reports/f… which examines how differences in the state of human stem cell pluripotency can lead to favorable or unfavorable outcomes when making brain organoids.

Now online in @CellStemCell! We discovered that extraembryonic membrane amnion is formed in two waves in primate embryos and established a pluripotent stem cell-based model closely recapitulating this process 🧵1/13
