Do you ever look at something amazing someone in your lab has done and say "Wow; this is awesome!"? Well, here's a very short story starring @DongzeHe! As part of simpleaf (github.com/COMBINE-lab/simpl…), we rely on another package we wrote called pyroe (github.com/COMBINE-lab/pyroe). 1/15

a year ago we (+@realAaronLun) announced Kana (kanaverse.org/kana/), to perform #singlecell analysis in the browser powered by #webassembly. This week we released version 3 to support multi-modal data analysis, gene set enrichment and exploration of pre-analyzed results (1/n)

New preprint! What is all that non-coding DNA doing? To understand if and how non-coding sequences regulate gene expression, we need scalable and reliable perturbation methods Delighted to present the @ENCODE_NIH Multi-center integrated analysis of non-coding CRISPR screens!

Today we report in @NatureBiotech the conversion of adenine base editors (ABE) into next-generation cytosine base editors (TadCBEs) with high on-target activity and reduced off-target activity using phage-assisted continuous evolution (PACE). 1/14 drive.google.com/file/d/1XY3…
