Do you want to pursue your ideas in computational biology independently, running your group in EMBL ‘s uniquely collaborative environment, next to world’s most comprehensive molecular data resources + with top-notch infrastructure EMBL-EBI? Apply to join us & pls RT

The Genome Biology Dept @EMBL is recruiting - independent group leader (PI) position. We are interested in people addressing important Qs in the broad area of Genomics in creative ways - including AI, #ArtificialInteligence #jobs embl.org/jobs/position/… embl.org/jobs/position/…

We are looking forward to the first edition of the VIB.AI symposium on Nov 20th, bringing together the local research community working at the intersection of AI and biology. vibconferences.be/events/vibai-s…

Our Structural and Computational Biology Unit is renamed to Molecular Systems Biology Unit. Co-Leads Julia Mahamid and Nassos Typas share their vision for the unit’s research directions and opportunities. embl.org/news/people-pe…

Looking for a PhD position? Interested in low-input genomics data and computational approaches? Want to live in Rome?:) Look no further! We are recruiting a dry-lab PhD student through the EMBL PhD program. Details: embl.org/about/info/emb…

Only one week left to apply for the PhD position in my lab - come work with powerful single cell technology in a beach front location!

Excellent chemistry meme. I hope it goes chiral!

Excited to share our first preprint with Judith Zaugg EMBL! We screened 1,296 transcription factors for repressors that block unwanted plasticity and found many putative tumour suppressors. PROX1 stands out as hepatocyte safeguard that prevents #livercancer. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Great to see that the Krebs lab continues to provide quantitative and important insights into rate-limiting steps in transcription!! Congrats to all.

David Suter Arnaud Krebs Christine Moene EMBL Great questions! Thanks. We looked into the proteomics data and did not find a difference in Pol II concentration between the two species, though it's unclear how comparable the data is. For second question, we also observed low Pol II footprint in differentiated cell types.

Did you ever wonder how transcription initiation compares between flies and mammals? The project that started as my master thesis in Arnaud Krebs lab, was continued by Kasit Chatsirisupachai is now out on BioRXiv: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…. Read his summary below:

I’m amped to share our new work to decrypt transcriptional repressors, now on bioRxiv: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… We paired deep mutational scans with machine learning to predict and even tune repressor activity. (1/8)

Cell Reports Check out our existing paper, just published in Cell Reports showing that partially assembled TFIID complexes (without TAF7 or TAF10) can sustain Pol II transcription initiation but cannot replace holo-TFIID over several cell divisions and/or development.

Last chance to register! This will be an incredibly cool meeting with top quantitative science of multiple fields!

One week left to apply for the postdoc position in my group!

🚨#JobAlert🚨 Join us in Geneva UNIGE_en! We have an open #postdoc position starting in 2025. If you are interested in studying chromatin regulation and working with brain organoids, apply now! #sciencejobs More info: unige.ch/medecine/gede/…

how cool is that? it still amazes me how Victor decided in 1994 (!) to look at such small RNAs in the lin-4 mutant worms . and the complementarity of the two lab's discoveries (one contributing the small RNA, the other one the target sites) is just lovely. warmest gratulations!
