Garvan researchers have launched a new resource for oncologists that could help make targeted cancer therapies more accessible for Australian patients. ow.ly/LscI50FhfqS Professor DM Thomas
I really admire the work that Retraction Watch do, but I'm disappointed by the inaccuracies of this post. They emailed me at 3.33am on Wed 11th. I sent a detailed reply to all their questions less than 10hrs later, cc-ing my colleagues. (1/3) x.com/RetractionWatc…
I am seeking for 4 highly motivated PhD students (Fully Funded- see image) to join my Lab at UNSW Engineering working on application of ML/DL on Nanopore Single-cell, Chromatin Interactions, Rare Diseases. RTs are very much appreciated! #BioMedEng #UNSWscientia Omid Faridani #PhD
Our work “Single-cell eQTL mapping identifies cell type-specific genetic control of autoimmune disease” just published in Science Magazine. The work started with the creation of the OneK1K cohort, consisting of scRNA-seq data on PBMCs from ~1000 donors science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… 🧵
So excited to see our ✨🧬'Molecular spikes'🧬✨ RNA spike-ins out in Nature Methods 📃 Since the preprint, we have completely overhauled the design & produced a completely new expanded set of spikes, so check it out: nature.com/articles/s4159… more below...⬇️
Thrilled our work is out in Oncogene Journal. Led by metabolomics guru Lake-Ee Quek USyd Core Research Facilities we describe a new hardwired metabolic program in triple-negative breast cancer that couples glutamine, glucose and essential amino acid metabolism together. nature.com/articles/s4138… 1/7
(1/3) Congratulations to #BaskinEngineering Assistant Professor of Biomolecular Engineering Ali Shariati علی شریعتی for winning the Maximizing Investigators' Research Award (MIRA/R35)! 👏👏 UCSC Biomolecular Engineering news.ucsc.edu/2022/08/bme-pr…
New Nature paper provides evidence that science has become less innovative since the 1950s. The authors suggest reversing the trend by: 1. reading widely, 2. focusing less on quantity of papers, & more on research quality, 3. taking year-long sabbaticals. nature.com/articles/s4158…
We value our partnership with Thermo Fisher. Great to catch up with the team during GeneMappers. Their HT Propel workflow mean Ramaciotti Centre for Genomics can process over 35K Axiom arrays per year. Yay for array!
Thanks NBCF Australia! Omid Faridani and I are excited to start this project, and extremely grateful to all the donors who have made this funding possible.
