The Reik Lab are excited to join Altos Labs - whose launch was announced today prn.to/3FBwEzH - to work on cellular rejuvenation programming, whilst continuing to work with our wonderful community Babraham Institute

Happy to see this out in Cell Stem Cell! 8C-like cells capture the human zygotic genome activation program in vitro. Details here 👉 cell.com/cell-stem-cell…

Delighted that two of our #PublicEngagement activities are finalists in the 'STEM Initiative of the Year' category!

Been wondering how to best do CUT&Tag and how it compares to ChIP-seq? We've got you covered! 📢 New preprint led by di and Leyla Abbasova, where we optimised and benchmarked CUT&Tag: CUT&Tag recovers up to half of ENCODE ChIP-seq peaks biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Now published in eLife - the journal! 🎉 We show that transient iPSC reprogramming can substantially rejuvenate human fibroblast cells (many markers suggest by about 30 years)! Congratulations to Diljeet Gill who led the work. Thread below 👇🧵 elifesciences.org/articles/71624

Our colleague Christopher Todd is on The Genomics Lab podcast today! Chris talks to @Olivia_A_Grant about transposable elements, epigenetic priming of enhancers and more! Listen on Spotify: ow.ly/55Zs50IGvIc Listen on Apple Podcasts: podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the… #Epigenetics

Fascinating insights into early embryonic development coming from an incredibly talented colleague (who you should all be keeping an eye on)

We're thrilled to be at the Cambridge Independent Science & Technology Awards this evening! Our Virus Fighter and Epigenetics Escape Room #publicengagement projects are finalists in the STEM Initiative of the Year category #SciTechAwards

I am very happy to share the main work from my postdoc at the Reik Lab 🎉, where we used single-cell multi-omics technologies and novel computational methods to study gene regulation during mouse early organogenesis 🐭. x.com/biorxivpreprin…

📢 Job alert! We are looking for a postdoc to join our team to study how enhancers and cis-regulatory variation control transcription in human iPSCs, and how they shape hiPSC potential to differentiate into primordial germ cells.

We are thrilled to officially welcome Hal Barron, MD, on his first day as CEO and Board Co-Chair. Hal’s leadership will contribute to our team's mission to reverse disease, injury, and the disabilities that occur throughout life.

My first paper from my PhD with Ewa Paluch 🇺🇦 at UCL Laboratory for Molecular Cell Biology and PDN Cambridge is out in J Cell Science: Proteomic analysis of the actin cortex in interphase and mitosis journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/13…

So happy our work is now out! Advanced Sci News I'll miss my days as a slice electrophysiologist! Hope our work can spark some cool ideas in the exciting field of voltage imaging! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ad…

Excited to host Stefan Schoenfelder 🇺🇦 from Babraham Institute as part of @qmulepigenetics seminar series. Please try to join us in person, we promise there will be lots of chat on #enhancers and histone modifications, stem cells & importantly 🍺🥂

Last chance to apply and join our team as a postdoc. We want to work with you and do some really cool epigenetics experiments to understand how brain cells regulate gene expression in Alzheimer's disease. Apply today 💪🧬🧠

Are you interested in transposons, placental biology, epigenetics and pregnancy? The advert is out for a postdoc position in my lab at King's College London, Guy's Campus - closes July 14th: kcl.ac.uk/jobs/091130-po…

Preprint alert! 🎉 Christopher Todd and the team used multi-omic profiling of human and mouse embryonic development to identify a conserved program of epigenetic priming at lineage specific enhancers for all three germ layers within the epiblast. biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…
