I am so happy to share my first preprint and first first author paper for my PhD work! 🤯 We aimed at investigating the potentialities of DNA methylation-free ESCs in early development, and found a coordinated germline-neural differentiation pathway in mESCs!

So cool to see Sandra DuharcourtLab honored tonight with the prestigious CNRS 🌍 silver medal! Such a well-deserved recognition for a brilliant scientist and an even better colleague!!

🚨Review Drop🚨 Julien Richard Albert & I explored the cutting edge of non-canonical imprinting. We also added our thoughts on the developmental and evolutionary importance of the phenomenon. A great exercise to think deeply about mammalian epigenetics (1/5) journals.biologists.com/dev/article-ab…

Very honored to be part of the EMBO community. Thanks to past and present lab members, and collaborators, and to Institut Jacques Monod for a great environment.

Very glad to share our preprint: Non-catalytic function of PRC2 in the control of small RNA dynamics during programmed genome elimination in Paramecium biorxiv.org/content/10.110…. Feedback and comments are welcome !

🚨Preprint Alert🚨 I am very proud to present our latest work, describing how DNA methylation shapes the polycomb landscape. A team effort, led by Julien Richard Albert, Teresa Urli, and Ana Monteagudo-Sánchez in the lab. Here's a 🧵 highlighting 🗝️ findings (1/12) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

DNA methylation can antagonize Polycomb-mediated gene silencing - neat! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Preprint alert. We’re thrilled to announce the latest work from our lab: The nuclear PIWI-interacting protein Gtsf1 controls the selective degradation of small RNAs in Paramecium. A thread with our key findings: (1/6) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

🚨New Preprint🚨 In this study, we set out to determine how the de novo DNA methylation program impacts the 3D cis regulatory landscape. Comments welcome! Here's a thread detailing our study's key findings (1/12) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

I am thrilled to see my PhD work now available in NatureStructMolBiol 🤩 I want to thank @Deborahbourchis for her guidance and all current and previous lab members for their support. I also want to thank our collaborators @InstitutCurie and elsewhere! A thread🧵: rdcu.be/du8UX

Happy to share our review dx.doi.org/10.1002/wrna.1… we highlight the similarities and differences between ciliates and other eukaryotes in small-RNA-directed chromatin silencing. Institut Jacques Monod CNRS Biologie @toma_bln Danny Holoch

Congratulations Danesh Moazed of Harvard Medical School, newly inducted #NASmember! #NAS161 #genetics #cellbiology

Very glad to share our latest publication on TET mode of action ! #drosophila #epigenetics science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

What does the RNA binding surface of PRC2 actually do? We show that part of the RNA binding surface is required for PRC2 function through interactions with nucleosomes, but we find no evidence that RNA is in play. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Usually, I just trash these spam conference invites. But it's not every day I get an email from one of my scientific heroes.

Happy to share two post-doc papers co-authored with the amazing Ana Monteagudo-Sánchez and Teresa Urli. We had amazing collaborators for both projects, even our supervisor Maxim Greenberg joined in on the experimenting! 1: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39180406/ 2: rdcu.be/dXXqh
