Much of the success of breakthroughs, such as AlphaFold, is thanks to a database of protein structures dreamed up in the 1960s by Helen Berman go.nature.com/4hp4UCP

Our paper on cryptic splicing-controlled protein expression, which we hope will inspire safer and more adventurous gene therapy approaches for ALS and FTD, has been published in @ScienceMagazine science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

Honoured to have written this review with Jernej Ule’s lab on the splicing code, spanning modeling, mechanisms and its implication for therapeutics designs. Wonderful teamwork.

in this article we delve into the world of splicing models! i specifically focused on the latest omics technologies that will help us to interpret and train models, looking towards future opportunities. lots of biorxiv citations because the field is moving so fast!!!

How can cellular signalling swiftly & selectively remodel the transcriptome to drive biological transition? How this switch is orchestrated has been a mystery... 🧵 nature.com/articles/s41594-0…

Very disappointing
The UK Biobank (UKB) has been an amazing field changing resource for the past decade. Unfortunately, and very suddenly, they have decided that to work with their data you now *must* use their “Research Analysis Platform” (RAP). @uk_biobank I guess there have been general warning

Calling all budding computational biologist or ECRs who wants to build a career in bioinformatics and computational biology to attend this exciting session of our seminar series.
This month your @ImperialBrains ECR committee is being very active💪next week we have another seminar from our Future Leader series planned out for you🥳Our speaker is Dr Anob Chakrabarti from @ucl @TheCrick who will share his career path and wisdom about the academic ladder🪜
