Two Postdoc positions in my lab Human Technopole! Please RT!

We have an Open Targets project in collaboration with Gosia Trynka lab. An ambitious project, with industry partnership to comprehensively understand regulators of B cell activation using CRISPR screens.

Last day to apply.

Thrilled to organize the 2024 Human Cell Atlas General Meeting in Milan in September/October 2024, including a day at the Human Technopole. Save the date!

Our review paper on 'Genome assembly in the telomere-to-telomere era' published online in Nature Reviews Genetics. It amazes me how much assembly has progressed in the past four years – often ~100X improvement in contiguity and base accuracy and with haplotypes and hard regions resolved!

📢If you're excited about organoid models, the genetic architecture of immune diseases and the regulation of gene expression, there is a #PhD position in our lab Human Technopole waiting for you!

Interested candidates can get in touch for more info. Please, share! 🙏

How can cell atlases of human tissues support drug target discovery? In a joint effort between Teichlab @Sanofi and Ensocell we tested whether info on cell type specific expression from scRNA-seq is associated w targets of clinically successful drugs medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

There is a crisis in clinical academia in the UK. We talk of the need to expand medical schools, embed research into the NHS to improve care, & the importance of a vibrant life sciences sector for the economy of the UK, & yet we seem unable to tackle the underlying issues 1/9
