New preprint on #CellularMemory and #3Dgenome!
Can cells remember their past? If so, how do they record prior events? To address this fundamental question, we disrupted the chromatin state balance of mESCs and looked to whether they can recover. (1/8)

Thrilled to share the work from my PhD and @BernardiLab now out on @NAR_Open. Here we dissected the multiple and parallel transcriptional functions of #PML defining it as an important regulator of the epigenome in triple-negative breast cancer.

Great scientific day at #MolMedRetreat #UiO! Thank you girls @NGaligniana @AnpBellanger and congrats for the talk @MadsenOesterbye!

[Mattia Santoboni @MattiaSantoboni]

Congratulations to my dear friend and amazing scientist @C_Fracassi for the completion of her PhD. I still remember the days when we were preparing our admission test to the biology faculty. But you run so fast and now you are a Philosopher of the field! Take everything you can🥳

[Bernardi Lab @BernardiLab]

So proud of our two young scientists @C_Fracassi and @MatildeSimoni who just got their PhD !!
