Lorne Genome Conference, Australia
The preeminent Australian conference on the organisation and expression of the genome
- We're excited to hear from 𝐃𝐫 𝐌𝐢𝐭𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐖𝐞𝐢𝐬𝐬, whose lab at St Jude Children's Research Hospital investigates red blood cell biology to develop new treatments for sickle cell disease and β-thalassemia, conditions affecting millions worldwide: lornegenome.org/mitch-weiss
- We're excited to hear from 𝐀/𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐟 𝐉𝐞𝐧𝐧𝐢𝐟𝐞𝐫 𝐙𝐞𝐧𝐤𝐞𝐫, whose lab uses cutting-edge live imaging to investigate the role of microtubules in cell fate decisions in early embryos: lornegenome.org/jennifer-zenker
- Choose your adventure at Lorne Genome: lornegenome.org/afternoon-activities 🏄♀️: 𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐟 and wipe out in front of your PI/students 🥾: 𝐇𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐰𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐬 (pretend months in the lab haven't destroyed your cardio) 🍷: 𝐖𝐢𝐧𝐞 + 𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐜 𝐭𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 (assuming this hasn't sold out immediately)
- We're excited to welcome 𝐃𝐫 𝐌𝐢𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐞𝐥 𝐆𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐥 from UPenn, whose lab employs functional genomics to decode the genetic mechanisms underlying neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders, identifying novel therapeutic targets: lornegenome.org/michael-gandal
