Trilled to attend @icsb2024 in @iitbombay ! Excellent opportunity to start using Blu Sky! Follow me on ciccarellilab.bsky.social!

Prof. Francesca Ciccarelli (The Francis Crick Institute, UK) presents the first Plenary talk on "A system biology approach to dissect the context-dependent effects of CDKN2A and other 9p21 gene losses during the evolution of oesophageal cancer" at 16:30 hours in VMCC @fcicca

All started from a random chat! I have enjoyed each moment of this long, challenging but very rewarding journey! So proud to work with @IMalanchi and Dominique Bonnet, two amazing scientists who I deeply respect!πŸ™πŸΌ to @ERC_Research @QMBCI @TheCrick Cant wait for the fun to start!
πŸ“° @ERC_Research awards prestigious €9.8m Synergy Grant to researchers at BCI @QMUL and @TheCrick to study how human tissues stay healthy as we age and how mutations help this process or lead to disease. ➑ bci.qmul.ac.uk/general-news/… @QMULBartsTheLon | @CRUKCOLcentre

We couldn’t end the workshop better than with the comprehensive overview by @dana_peer of what we can do (and how) with spatial biology to enhance the understanding of cancer #EMBOcancerBio24

Eilen Heylen from @QMBCI describes really relevant results on differences in the spatial tumour architecture of breast cancers from Black British and White British women. We need more of these data! #EMBOcancerBio24
