Apart from coding for some RNAs involved in translation (transfer RNA, ribosomal RNA), it was thought 30 or so years ago that the functional parts of the genome were protein-coding sequences and their regulatory regions. Then that changed... scientificamerican.com/article/revolu…

this morning, I received an email that our paper was finally sent for peer review at a prestigious journal ... after 100 days!!! seriously, something has to change here

The cell adhesion molecule protocadherin10 is linked to autism in humans. Together with the SeuntjensLab, we now show that mice with protocadherin10-deficient interneurons display alterations in amygdala development and socio-affective communication: royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…

i am so excited about our open source inexpensive, sub-cellular capture, do-it-yourself Open-ST that transforms tissues into virtual tissue blocks in 3D - IDing pathways & gene programs driving phenotypes. a huge congratz to the team! cell.com/cell/abstract/…

Attending FENS 2024 in Vienna? I would love to tell you more about my PhD project in the Schratt lab at ETH Zürich investigating the role of miRNAs in engram neuron consolidation in the central amygdala! (Thursday afternoon session, poster #42) Hope to see you there :)

Read our recently published paper: loss of the miR-379-410 cluster increases sociability and drives the expression of actomyosin genes in mice. Similar dysregulation also occurs in hiPSC-derived neurons bearing a Williams-Beuren Syndrome-related deletion. cell.com/cell-reports/f…
