Incredible work from Ramona Weber is on BioRxiv now! Check out how a non-canonical translation initiation factor mediates reinitiation and involved in stem cell fate by shaping the synthesis of specific signalling factors. 👇🏻

How can transcription and translation be coupled? We performed long-read sequencing and found a curious switch towards TOP-motif mRNA isoforms in cancer. The presence of a TOP-motif changes mRNA translation efficiency. Thanks to the whole Sendoel lab for your team spirit!

Happy to share the latest pre-print from our lab. A single-cell CRISPR based investigation into clonal expansion and early tumorigenesis. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… A great team effort with MoorLab and Stephanie Ellis

An honourable moment to present my poster at #EMBLprotein conference to William Merrick who started all by discovering #eIF2A nearly 50years ago, and we are still trying to find its function! Thanks to all for this meeting and exciting discussions #Sendoellab #EMBL EMBL Events

Snowflakes and science at our traditional IREM retreat in the magical landscape of Sils Maria. Great discussions and a lot of fun with our invited guest from Vienna, Stephanie Ellis.

I am excited to share our new preprint. Human tumor suppressor protein Pdcd4 binds at the mRNA entry site in the 40S, where it blocks the eIF4F-independent role of eIF4A during recruitment and scanning. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… #CryoEM #science #mRNA #ribosome

Final day of the Ellis and Sendoel lab retreat in epithelial biology. Excellent presentations, exciting new ideas, wrapping up with a visit to Pisa.

PhDone 🥳🎓 The last few years was full of successes, failures, ups and downs, but also full of amazing people, countless talks, great conferences, incredible science and endless support from my supervisor and my thesis committee. Thanks to all people who helped me during PhD!
