We had a fantastic start of the week at the annual iMM retreat! And today was a great day for the lab with our postdoc Joana presenting her work on TERRA ONTseq and Bruno receiving the Lídia Silva-Santos Postdoctoral Achievement Award!

This week our bachelor student Marta Cantarelli graduated with a great presentation on 3D-SIM analyses of #TERRA localization at #telomeres. Excellent job Marta!

We are very happy to announce that last week Glenda Grupelli joined our lab as a PhD student. Welcome to the lab Glenda! CIBIO - UniTrento

Super excited to share and discuss our view on #telomere transcription and on the lncRNA #TERRA at the Non-Coding Genome course organized by Institut Curie! See you there!

Happy to share our latest review. We discuss mechanisms of telomere-specific regulation of TERRA and their impact on #telomere stability, comparing evidence in different organisms.CIBIO - UniTrento Fondazione AIRC per la ricerca sul cancro Elsevier authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S10…

Éxitos!

What an exciting experience my first @TeloEMBO2024 in Rome!🧬 Five days full of #Science , great networking and fun! #telomeres #TERRA Cusanelli Lab CIBIO - UniTrento

Just back from an exciting @TeloEMBO2024. Thank you very much to the organizers Miguel Godinho Ferreira CMAzzalin Lab Maria Teresa Teixeira The Boulton Lab Grazia Raffa for putting together an amazing workshop!

Thanks to Institut Curie for the opportunity to present our work in Cusanelli Lab at the Non-Coding Genome 2024 Course. Thank you all for the feedback and ideas. I really enjoyed the discussion! Thanks Maxime Wery for the invitation and the picture!

Join me today at poster 525 in the The RNA Society meeting #RNA24 to discuss 1) how the lncRNA TERRA could activate recombination of telomeres, and 2) the beautiful views from Arthur's Seat!

Happy to share our recent publication on #TERRA participating in #telomerase regulation at human #telomeres. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…. Great work from @Bettinnicole_ and coworkers in collaboration with Chartrand lab Université de Montréal.

It seems you have something new to read: science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… Extraordinarily excited and proud to see this paper out! Many thanks to this fantastic team made up of brilliant scientists Marta Andolfato Irene Gialdini Glenda Grupelli Elena Goretti

Thrilled to have contributed to highlighting the inspiring academic career of Professor Benoit Chabot!

We are very proud of our student Claudio Oss Pegorar who yesterday defended his PhD thesis investigating the role of #TERRA in #telomere maintenance. In collaboration with @Labmione_cibio at CIBIO - UniTrento. Fondazione AIRC per la ricerca sul cancro. Great work Claudio!!!

📣New opportunity for #Postdoc researcher!📣 If you are interested in #telomeres and #genomestability, don’t miss this chance! Application details at gimm.pt/jobs/junior-re…. Feel free to DM or email us ([email protected]) for more info. Vacation code: IMM/CT/71-2024

Lenhard Hayflick, who passed on Aug 1 2024, demonstrated the finite replicative lifespan of normal human cells. Simple, well-designed experiments tackling fundamental questions can overturn our understanding of the principles regulating life. #CellularSenescence

Thrilled to share our latest collaboration with Villunger Lab & CeMM in print! 🧬 We show how extra centrosomes can drive cell death 💀⚰️. Huge congrats to Dario, Vincenza vigorito, and the members of both teams! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
