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.

I am looking for a motivated PhD student who is interested in understanding the fundamentals of gene regulation. They will be working directly with me on a DECRA funded project (scholarship guaranteed for domestic students). DM me if you know of anyone interested, including you

interested in 3D genome organization during early development? want to understand how it is shaped by RNA? you like data analysis and developing new computational tools? 🧬💻🧐
With @golobor we are recruiting a PhD student/intern to work with us at @IMBA_Vienna

Delighted that this is finally out! Thanks to @Faulkner_Lab @todd_macfarlan and the other reviewer for good and constructive comments that arrived in my inbox the day after my second child was born... paper here nature.com/articles/s41467-0…. Short reflection on new stuff...
Happy and proud to share my lab’s study on how DNA methylation and the HUSH-MORC2 corepressor work together, out last week on biorxiv: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
A fantastic collaboration with our colleagues at @JakobssonLab @Lund_Stem...1/7

Preprint on "BWT construction and search at the terabase scale". We can compress 100 human genomes to 11GB in 21 hours, find SMEMs with it, do affine-gap alignment and retrieve similar local haplotypes. 7.3Tb commonly sequenced bacterial genomes ⇒ 30GB arxiv.org/abs/2409.00613

We are still looking for a postdoctoral candidate, previous experience with Transposable Elements and/or chromatin would be great, but also other backgrounds like EvoDevo please get in touch, we work on many different systems and topics, new advert here: qmul-jobs.tal.net/vx/mobile-…
We have a 2y postdoc position open in my group. The profile is quite broad, from bioinformatics to molecular biology. If you are interested in giant virus endogenization, EvoDevo, epigenetics and evolution, do apply and gent in touch. Please RT. Details: qmul.ac.uk/jobs/vacancies/it…

This recently published figure by @Sarah_E_Ancheta et al. is very disturbing and should lead to some deep introspection in the single-cell genomics community (I doubt it will).
It demonstrates complete disagreement among 5 widely used "RNA velocity" methods 1/

On bioRxiv today, we raise serious concerns over a recent @nature paper describing ReDeeM, a new single-cell mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequencing / analysis method. Here are three things that you need to know: 1/n
