Very happy to share my first published paper! A huge thank you to all co-authors evaristplanet Halit Ongen for making this paper possible and a special thank you to Manolis Dermitzakis and Prof. Didier Trono for giving me the opportunity to work on such an interesting project.

Comparative analysis of human, rodent and snake deltavirus replication | PLOS Pathogens The lab’s first paper is out, it took us two years, a twittorial coming soon ! Kudos to Pierre and Zoé , the first lab recruits (Jan 2022) and co-first authors. journals.plos.org/plospathogens/…

Our #preprint on Pitx1 & Liebenberg syndrome with @BompadreOl98894 is out. Key findings: Phenotypic severity tied to proportions of Pitx1 overexpressing cells, not transcription level. Pitx1 transcription doesn't drive enhancer-promoter interactions. 1/X biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Join us on Tuesday at 4pm for the next seminar of the🇨🇭Chromatin Club! Fides Zenk Fides Zenk will present her latest research on single-cell epigenomic reconstruction of developmental trajectories in human neural organoids. Register now at the link below:

Interested in the 3D genome and how it impacts chromatin regulation?! Register now and join us on Thursday at 4pm Swiss time to hear Luca Giorgetti from the FMI in Basel present his latest research on chromosome structure and transcriptional regulation.

The first paper from our lab is now out in peer-reviewed form LifeScienceAlliance. Huge congratulations to the first author Mary Bergwell, Mary Bergwell, now in grad school at UPenn, and second author JinYoung Park! I am very proud of their hard work. They even let me do a few expts!
