It’s full steam ahead at the CRT writing retreat in Athlone with thesis being structured, chapters being written and papers being drafted 😓. But also time for some walks to clear the head and some cohort bonding and peer support !😀
The CRT Careers day is off to a great start with excellent talks from @scienceirel Teresa Brophy and @HSELive Eppie Jones! Breakout sessions on careers in (1)startups and VCs, (2)in health research and clinical settings (3) academia are up next!
3 weeks left to apply for this PhD position on enhancer biology in AML, importantly with updated stipend €20,000 p.a
9 days left for applications for a postdoc focussed on the role of PAX8 in ovarian cancer.

1/11 Our Preprint out today looking at EZH2 mutations in human growth disorders. We find novel mutational mechanisms & directly opposing chromatin & transcriptional defects caused by mutations associated with overgrowth versus growth restriction syndromes https://t.co/gMd39qVTOO
Our research group @UCD_Conway@UCD_SBBS is expanding! We have two open post-doc positions and one PhD position to work on transcription factors and epigenetics in cancer. See link below for more details.

Delighted to have our CRT students in sunny Galway for their annual progress reviews! Fantastic to hear the interesting and diverse research projects and see how these young researchers are going from strength to strength every year!!!
Big congratulations to our speaker and poster prize winners 🏆 @Darragh_Nim@EllenFinnegan6 and Mike Rainey! Thanks to everyone for participating and see you all next year! #AICC2023
💙💛 Almost €5m will be shared by two UCD spin-out companies following investment from the Disruptive Technologies Innovation Fund (DTIF).
🧵 The Government announced €17.8m for 5 projects within the DTIF and UCD's @plasma_bound and EpiCapture are in two of these projects.
A team of scientists led by those in @tcdgenmicro has discovered new mechanisms involved in establishing cellular identity, which may have translational impacts in #cancer biology.

Delighted to share our CBX7-JARID2 story now in @MolecularCell. To our surprise, @jxwangcheng and I uncovered a new mode of PRC1 recruitment by JARID2! Amazing team effort as always, thanks @adrianbracken lab and collaborators @LabVermeulen@pasini_lab

Last-minute winner from Lorcan Nimmo!
It was 2-12 apiece, just minutes ago, when the @OulartBallagh No 12 popped up with this superb point to send @RCSIGAA into tomorrow's @ElectricIreland Ryan Cup Final against @ATU_Connemara
After more than 2 years of work, I am happy to share our latest preprint on CellCharter, a computational framework to identify and study cellular niches in large-scale spatial transcriptomics and proteomics data 🧵 1/12

Really looking forward to our next @irelandchrom webinar on Friday Jan 27th at 4pm BST / 5pm CET.
Joanna Wysocka @StanfordMed will speak on ‘Making faces: transcriptional enhancers in human development, evolution and disease’. Please register at: https://t.co/dNecuPDKTF
Pleased to announce a full review of all phD supports.
This will include financial supports, access to maternity and paternity leave, and visa requirements.
Review will conclude early next year. First step will be engagement with researchers themselves.
We still have mountains to climb for genomic medicine, but I want to pause, catch breath, and look around - how far we've come, and what does the landscape look like from here.
