Group leader @IJMonod. When I say "epigenetics" what I really mean is "DNA methylation". Posting now at 🦋 (maxvcg.bsky.social)

The research project that got the lab off the ground has been published in @NatureSMB 🥹. I couldn't do a better job of summarizing than co-lead author @jrichardalbert , so he'll take it from here! (and makes unexpected connections with our other recent study)

Happy to share two post-doc papers co-authored with the amazing @AnaMonteagudo4 and @teresa_urli. We had amazing collaborators for both projects, even our supervisor @maxvcg joined in on the experimenting!

Any scientists who are on here to have an honest conversation about research, share papers, discuss science culture, etc. I think it's time to stop, and go to the other site. If you think you're here to make some kind of stand, I respectfully find that rather naive. #LogOff

Another PSA: If you (like me) are mainly here for science, but also really enjoy lurking in other corners (sports and politics for me), the other site is really coming into its own. And the Science discourse there is as good as anything since Prelon Twitter.

If you're interested in DNA methylation editing, I wrote a lengthy thread about it in the other website (handle in bio)!

I will be keeping this account but will be posting more on the blue place 🦋from now on. Huge migration of scientists to there over the last week and it finally feels how Twitter did when I first joined 🔥

Ok looks like we’re reaching critical mass on the other place! I won’t delete this account but I’ll stop actively posting - see you over there 💙

I'm not shutting down my account, but my remaining days posting here will be proselytizing: the other app has achieved critical mass, and there are great tools for discovery. Don't be shy! It's a thrilling time! (🦋/🦋🦋)

It seems like journals and research institutes are a little slower to migrate (except for @cshperspectives, obviously). But whoever is running those accounts, now is the time! (🦋🦋/🦋🦋)

Two opinions from two of my favorite follows (@HarmitMalik and @WiringTheBrain). I’m not gonna rush off here, but it’s true it’s tough not to feel conflicted about this stupid website

Heading to Munich for a couple days. Probably will hit up a beer hall or two. The perfect environment to get one’s mind off the specter of impending fascism

Analyzing whole genome DNA methylation data? Our new method MethyLasso is out in NAR! It can help you identify regions with low or partial methylation (LMR, UMR, DMV, PMD, PMD) or differentially methylated regions (DMR) and was benchmarked against others

The HuSH complex silences retrotransposable elements. We identify HuSH2, centered on TASOR2, targeting KRAB-ZNFs and interferon genes, balancing retrotransposon silencing and immune regulation. nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

Just finished three hours of phone banking for @KamalaHarris ! Mainly voicemail messages, but I gave one Latino voter in Nevada a voting plan for Tuesday which made it all worth it. Thanks @DemsAbroad for the awesome organization so those of us in far flung places can help 💪🇺🇸
