Excited to present at #CNAPS2025 on the value and utility of cell-free RNA in #liquidbiopsies.
Hope to see some of you in Hong Kong next year! Circulating Nucleic Acids in Plasma and Serum, 14th CNAPS International Symposium. Hong Kong, December 3-5, 2025. cnaps2025.org. #SNAPS2025 #cfDNA #liquidbiopsy

Nobelprijs Geneeskunde gaat naar 2 Amerikaanse biologen voor hun ontdekking van #microRNA en de belangrijke rol die het speelt bij ziektes.
Prof. kankeronderzoek Jo Vandesompele @jvdesomp bevestigt het belang en legt hun ontdekking hier uit 👇

“We have to think about what we not see!” Plato-wisdom by @jptosar. RNA-seq patterns can be very biased and not necessarily reflect the in vivo extracellular RNA situation.
Today at 1 pm on campus UZ Gent, building MRB2. Meet Prof. Tosar who will discuss extracellular RNA and its potential diagnostic applications.
Welcome to Prof. Tosar @jptosar's talk on January 12th in Gent at 13:00. "Uptake and recognition of naked extracellular RNAs & potential diagnostic applications" @crighent #OncoRNALab
I enjoyed listening to or reading these 12 books in 2023! goodreads.com/user/year_in_b… @goodreads @audible_com. What are your recommendations for 2024?

Registrations are open for our #EUDIP2024 European Digital PCR Symposium and Workshop in Feb 2024 dpcr.ugent.be/EUDIP2024/ with @JimHuggett @GuroLind @FraleyLab @Roche @QIAGEN @thermofisher @StillaTech @BioRadGenomics Sniper,
Excited that our love for RNA spreads. Great collaboration in which we co-developed a method for single muscle fiber RNA profling. #OncoRNALab Great #xorial by talented @ThibauxV from @TeamDerave
Are all fibers in skeletal muscle created equal? How important are myosin heavy chains isoforms? In a joint effort between @TeamDerave and @AtulDeshmukh lab, we tried to answer these (and more) questions. #myotwitter #muscle A 🧵on our preprint (1/24)

Very happy to feature on the cover of @naturemethods in which our circular RNA detection tool benchmarking study was published (nature.com/articles/s41592-0…) Thank you @DrawImpacts for great artwork. #OncoRNALab @ResearchUGent @crighent @MariekeVromman @pjvolders #firsttimeever
Great takeaway by @pjvolders of our recent circRNA tool benchmarking study!
Very excited to see our benchmarking study finally out in @naturemethods ! This has been an effort four years in the making by @MariekeVromman, @jvdesomp, myself, and many others. Some key findings and takeaways: (1/n)
