Plenary by Tim Coorens on the somatic mutation landscape of normal gastric epithelium #MITS24

Interested in studying somatic evolution and cancer risk across species? Mathieu Giraudeau and I have a 2 year post doc opportunity to explore this area. See below for more details.

We are all walking mosaics of genetically distinct cells.

Every cell acquires around one mutation each division after fertilization, resulting in a vast amount of genetic diversity across all the cells in our bodies by the time we are born.

Our new ms “Cell-type-resolved mosaicism reveals clonal dynamics of the human forebrain” is now at nature . rdcu.be/dEmgT! We report on human forebrain dynamic assembly during development…1/n

Very excited to share our review on genetic variation across and within individuals led by Zhi Yu Tim Coorens! nature.com/articles/s4157… Nature Reviews Genetics

Really happy to see our review article on somatic and germline variation out in Nature Reviews Genetics! Great effort with amazing team of superstars Zhi Yu, M Mesbah Uddin, Kristin Ardlie, Niall J Lennon and Pradeep Natarajan.

Our review article is out!🎉
Grateful for the chance Nature Reviews Genetics Pradeep Natarajan to delve into the similarities, differences, and interplay between somatic and germline mutations🧬with super talented Tim Coorens!
Also, thank Henry Ertl for the dedication in handling the review!
