- We have just launched our projects for #phd studentships starting in Sept 26 🙌 ⏰Application deadline: Midday, Wed 3 Dec 25 Come and see the (wide!) range of #bioscience projects 👉 tinyurl.com/3m9um286
- Exciting postdoc opportunity!
- Reposted by Sean FlynnWe are hiring! We are looking for a PDRA to study the epigenetics of breast cancer dormancy using chemical biology and genomics approaches. This is a 3-year position and is aimed at chemical biologists or biologists. Please share and apply using the link below 👇👇👇 www.imperial.ac.uk/jobs/search-...
- Reposted by Sean FlynnCheck it out, Chromatin Kids! Chromatin remodeller does stuff to Transcription Factors! Functions where it is seldom seen! Both decreases and increases chromatin accessibility! How cool is that?
- The chromatin remodeller CHD4 controls both nucleosome integrity and transcription factor binding to promote activity of active regulatory elements and to prevent activation of silent enhancers biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/202…

- Reposted by Sean FlynnHow does (local #DNA) structure affect (3D #genome) structure? Can mutating G4s abolish #enhancers key for #blood function? In the second part of our explorations of #G4s in gene regulation, we show how abolishing G-quadruplex structures in the genome disrupts enhancers. 1/9 doi.org/10.1186/s130...
- Reposted by Sean FlynnHappy to be part of this exciting work. A must-read for enhancer aficionados: A massive effort has gone into generating genome-wide STARRseq in hPSCs and conducting functional validation assays. Congratulations to all authors, Stefan and Ufuk, for leading this project 🎉.
- Delighted & excited to share our latest preprint on non-canonical enhancers in human pluripotent stem cells, the result of a fantastic and fun collaboration with @guenesdoganlab.bsky.social: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... 🧵 below
