Great times yesterday at the Applied Optics Group picnic in the leafy University of Kent campus - also with some of our friends from Griffin Lab 🙂

Even though 99.9% of our sequences are the same, there are slight differences in each person. These differences are called genomic variants. Out of the 6 billion letters in our genomes, each of us has around 4 to 5 million genomic variants!

Thank you for the opportunity to share our research in mosaicism in bovine embryos done at Griffin Lab (School of Biosciences, University of Kent University of Kent) at ICAR 2020+2 in Bologna 🧬🐮 ICAR ICAR2020+2 #icar2022 #mosaicism #embryo #PGT

Wonderful day at Howletts Wildlife Park!! Looks like someone is enjoying summer weather in the UK 🐘

We had an amazing day out with the lab yesterday at Howletts - from left to right: Peter Ellis Dadakhalandar Doddamani Sarah Cristina me Carla Hazel Finn Corey Kirkland Frances Burden and Carla Canedo Ribeiro

About to kickstart our #GenerationGenone launch event here at Wellcome Genome Campus in Cambridge!

Happy students at the #BeddingtonConf today 😀 showcasing our research Applied Optics Group Griffin Lab !

Darren, Peter & the lab took time off campus to try out an escape room. Team 1 narrowly beat Team 2 escaping in 3.58 compared to 0.48. Congratulations for both teams for getting out in time.

Autumn vibes on campus 🍂

The lab was delighted to welcome Joshua Abram and Alan Murray (“the TMRW people”) to talk about collaborative ventures and investment opportunities!

This was an unexpected result for our team 🕋 Well done everyone that participated!

Very proud of the most recent work using PGT-A in pigs to investigate chromosomal abnormalities in both in vivo and in vitro embryos 🐖🧬 Thank you to everyone that collaborated on this study! Griffin Lab Topigs Norsvin mdpi.com/2171540 #mdpicells Cells MDPI

I had a great opportunity to present my PhD work on nanopore sequencing to detect RTs in pigs as part of the Marta Farré Lab at University of Kent School of Biosciences, University of Kent Thank you, Alex Cagan, for the amazing illustration! #gsuk #genomescienceuk
