We are happy to share our latest long-range, programmable mutagenesis toolbox - the Helicase-Assisted Continous Editing (HACE) system - to achieve target-specific mutagenesis of the endogenous genome. (1/11) biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Slide-tags unifies the single cell + spatial genomics worlds. It solves three key problems with existing spatial methods: 1) Cell segmentation (the biggest problem) 2) robustness and scalability (well-powered case-control studies now possible) 3) Multiomics (ATAC, RNA, etc)
A new method called Slide-tags lets scientists capture both genetic and location information of individual cells using standard single-cell workflows in the lab. The technology builds upon Slide-seq, both developed by the labs of @insitubiology & @macosko. broad.io/slide-tags

We extended the RNA velocity model to incorporate epigenome data from single-cell multi-omic protocols like 10X Multiome. Key results: more accurate velocity estimation than RNA alone; inference of RNA/epigenome decoupling; and quantification of time lags. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Thanks to @KafsackLab for this great spotlight on our latest addition to the #MalariaCellAtlas! Soon to be rounded out with some gametocyte 🌙 work coming from myself, @AndyRusss and @SunilDogga

And it is out! It was a great pleasure to collaborate with @theosanderson @AndyRusss @amtalman @billker_lab @marakat @Waters_Group and others on this story. If you are interested in the Plasmodium sex determination - check out the preprint! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
Expression of a single gene, AP2-G, is enough to make malaria parasites divert from reproducing asexually in our blood to become sexual forms ready to be eaten by a 🦟. But how do these genetically identical cells become ♂️ or ♀️? We tried to find out. 🧵 biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Emoji similarity map by @erindataviz. The map places emojis that are used together in tweets frequently close together. Great idea for a dataviz! Source: buff.ly/3Bc3QwI

I am thrilled to announce that our work on In silico saturation mutagenesis of cancer genes is finally out @Nature. We propose a method inspired in evo biology to identify driver mutations in cancer genes. Here’s #tweetorial to sketch our results rdcu.be/cqsM1

Given our far too slow track record on "widening participation", as a matter of principle, @Cambridge_Uni should honour all existing offers made to state sector candidates regardless of result.
