1/ Our lab’s first preprint found a wonderful journal home! 🎉 Our paper explores the role of testis-specific transcription factors in Drosophila and reveals broad functional connections between tissue-specific paralog proteins. 📝: genesdev.cshlp.org/content/e…

I am super proud to share the first Andergassen Lab preprint! Here, we introduce a new framework to decode the non-coding genome, led by the outstanding work of @HasenbeinT and co-authors @sarahhoelzl, Stefan Engelhardt @TU_Muenchen @dfg_public @trr267 👇🧵

Crack the code: Have you ever wondered whether the “histone code” is only present on histones? Is it exciting that a similar “code” embedded in non-histone proteins is also involved in gene regulation? Check out our new preprint on a “histone mimic code”: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Super proud - our new work about two troublesome TEs spreading into several Droso species in just a few decades; it was so much fun to work with the amazing @r_pianezza @Almoro_Scarpa @signor_molevol rdcu.be/d5G1M

If you have ever wondered whether the PAML documentation could be more interactive... We have good news for you! The PAML GitHub repository has been updated and a fresh PAML Wiki is now available for you to navigate the PAML documentation! 📄💻 (1/n) github.com/abacus-gene/paml/…

Jeg har skrevet lidt i @Altingetdk om vigtigheden af at investere i forskning, og om hvorfor jeg mener, at vi i dag ikke fordeler pengene optimalt. Vi kunne få langt mere ud af det, hvis vi gentænkte ideen med forskningsreserven. #dkpol #forskpol altinget.dk/forskning/artike…

AlphaFold can predict protein, DNA, or RNA complexes.. BUT is it easy to determine the reliable interactions?🤔 ➡️ AlphaBridge will identify the most confident interactions, making your analysis easier! 🌐Try it here: alpha-bridge.eu 👀Read more: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

i can guarantee that no bluesky team members will be sitting with a presidential candidate tonight and giving them direct access to control what you see online
Elon Musk plans to spend election night with Donald Trump, giving the former president direct access to the person controlling X, a key information platform, on what could be a chaotic evening. nyti.ms/3Apvv1R

Excited to share our unexpected finding: piRNA pathway designed to protect the genome from invading nucleic acids created a population of selfish small RNAs that have perpetuated themselves for the past hundred million years of mammalian evolution. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

I can now be found at uwe-ohler.bsky.social . Will likely also link to Mastodon and let you know. #eXit

Beyond thrilled to present our O-MAP—now *published* @naturemethods (!!!) O-MAP is a powerful new method for biochemically "dissecting" the subcellular microenvironment around an RNA of interest, using off-the-shelf parts and standard manipulations. 🧵 nature.com/articles/s41592-0…

Det her svarer fuldstændigt til mine erfaringer. Mange af mine studerende har allerede jobs inden de afleverer specialet - og det er i næsten alle tilfælde på grund af deres studiejobs. Når man presser det, gør man også overgangen til arbejdsmarkedet sværere
Kandidatreformen skulle lette overgangen fra uddannelse til job - men gør ifølge @evaluerdk det stikmodsatte. Mindre tid til studiejob er ifølge @B_Hartkopf en af årsagerne: altinget.dk/forskning/artike…

Evolutionary genetics folks, does anyone know of a data practical suitable for undergrad teaching that focuses on sex ratio theory or sex chromosome meiotic drive? Before I invest a lot of time developing one I thought I ask around first! Thanks

New synthetic biology / gene regulation lab opening in Zurich! We’re studying how to control cell state transitions – for example, making diseased cells healthy or creating new cellular functions – using systematic perturbations, single-cell genomics and machine learning. 🧵1/4
