How do non-coding variants in enhancers cause human disease? Here, in my main PhD work with Evgeny Kvon, we uncover a surprising mechanism, with generalizable implications for human genomics. tinyurl.com/89tdkevu n/

Hey y'all, I may be unemployed starting from October. If you have any leads on biotech / postdoc positions in the German-speaking part of Switzerland, I'd greatly appreciate a message. I'm great with Data Analysis, Molecular Biology, and Teaching. (Plz RT) timothyfuqua.com

This a really exciting leap forward for genomic sequence to activity gene regulation models. It is a genuine improvement over pretty much all SOTA models spanning a wide range of regulatory, transcriptional and post-transcriptional processes. 1/

I am thrilled to announce that I will be starting my own lab at NYU Biology Jan 2026! Soon enough I will be recruiting postdocs and students! Please reach out if you are interested with a CV and description of your research or if you know of people who could be interested!🧬🦊

Our preprint describing the Range Extender element, which is required and sufficient for long-range enhancer activation at the Shh locus, is out in nature. nature.com/articles/s4158…

I'm super excited to share that I will be joining the Department of Biology at Stanford University as an Assistant Professor in October 2025! I’ll also be a member of the Stanford Stem Cell Institute Stanford Stem Cell. Incredibly grateful to be starting my dream job!🧠🧬🖥️

Can an AI model predict perfectly and still have a terrible world model? What would that even mean? Our new ICML paper formalizes these questions One result tells the story: A transformer trained on 10M solar systems nails planetary orbits. But it botches gravitational laws 🧵

We’re Blainey Lab sharing a major update to CROPseq-multi, our versatile system for CRISPR screens that is compatible with individual and combinatorial perturbations, diverse SpCas9-based technologies, and multiple high-content, single-cell readouts. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Postdoc position opening in my group! Research projects: pangenomes for diverse organisms, genome evolution, biocomputing, language models. Please reach out if interested!

nature.com/articles/s4158… Wow! 1,700 transgenic mice for the most comprehensive enhancer characterization ever. Leo and Axel never cease to amaze!

Our Issue 07 launch party in San Francisco was a smashing success. 🏏 Thanks to everyone who came and played Biology Trivia. Winning teams got copies of our DNA books, hats, and posters. It was a really fun time! See you in the fall, in Boston, for the next one. :)

This paper is really elegant and beautiful. Researchers took a vesicle, filled it with a single type of enzyme and some protein pores, and showed that this "minimal cell," made from just three components (!!), could "actively propel itself toward an enzyme substrate gradient."

I am thrilled to share that I will be starting my lab in the Center for Pediatric Neurological Disease Research (CPNDR) at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital as a faculty member St. Jude St. Jude Research. Deeply grateful for the incredible mentorship, support and camaraderie in

The Sudmant lab at UC Berkeley is seeking a postdoc to work on a fully funded NIH project to understand differences in DNA repair and somatic mutation across the primate tree of life. Please spread widely to those who may be interested aprecruit.berkeley.edu/JPF05052
