Genome-wide analyses correlate nuclear speckle proximity with gene expression. We share our minireview discussing possible functional relationships between nuclear speckles and gene expression in both health and disease: authors.elsevier.com/sd/arti…

📢It's a big milestone for the Lee lab - our very first preprint!!! 🥳 Grad student @a_deepshi led a team of undergrads to ask how germ cells handle DNA damage with nucleosomes crowding the way 🚨 hint: 🚧NuRD remodeling clears a path for DSB repair🚧 biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

I am so excited to share this part of my PhD where we tackle the question: What impact do 3D contacts have on how enhancers regulate their target genes? biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… 1/

So happy this is out! We were thrilled to be involved in such an amazing story. Go check our this thread and don't forget to watch the music video that goes with it!
It’s finally out! 🥳 Today @cellcellpress we report non-mineral fossils of ancient chromosomes in skin from a woolly mammoth that died in Siberia, 52,000 years ago. 🦣💨 Don’t miss our thread below! 🧵👇🏽

Our lab, in collaboration with partners from @genentech, @sanofi, @gsk, @pfizer, @sangerinstitute, and @emblebi, has been awarded £2M by @OpenTargets to generate novel perturbation data across multiple disease models and develop large generative models to facilitate the discovery of drug targets. As part of the first wave of hires, I am looking for candidates for two machine learning-focused positions at different levels (Predoc, Postdoc) and one computational biologist. The positions available are: 1. Machine Learning Scientist (Phd required, Senior Postdoc): tinyurl.com/mph5k538 2. Machine Learning Scientist (Postdoc, Predoc (Msc)): tinyurl.com/y56ct92n 3. Computational Biologist and Applied ML (Postdoc): tinyurl.com/468n53rz deadline 3.07.24

🎬The Lee lab loved putting on our actor hats in this video about student research @UML_Biology & @KCSciences_UML. 🎥 It was filmed & produced by @DigMediaFAHSS students, and they sure made us & the science look fantastic! youtube.com/watch?v=4JUgyB0t…
