It was a pleasure hosting Jasper Verwilt @JVerwilt from Sleegers Lab @SleegersLab in our lab for 3 weeks, focusing on establishing a Nano3PCR-seq protocol to capture cell-free RNA biomarkers in human biofluids — Jasper it was great having you with us, hope to see you again!🚀

(8/8) This project was co-led by Mie Monti and Hasan Yilmaz in a fruitful collaboration between the @NovoaLab, @ImmaginaBiotech and the #AnaSoares Lab.💃

New preprint released 🪇

Which tRNAs are used by ribosomes during translation?

We introduce tRIBO-seq, a nanopore method to sequence ribosome-associated tRNAs and track how the active tRNA pool changes across stress conditions.

A thread 🧵

(7/8) Overall, tRIBO-seq provides a simple way to profile the active tRNAome, capturing abundance, modifications and fragmentation from actively translating ribosomes.

🧬Novoa Lab had a great time at the Genome Biology Program Retreat'25!
Big thanks to the organisers for such an inspiring and fun event 👏
Congrats to @mie_monti for being part of the organising team and to @oguzhanbegik for giving a fantastic talk!

Fresh preprint from the @NovoaLab!😀📌 Do you want to barcode up to 96 #RNA samples in your #nanopore flowcells? How well do RNA #modification-aware models perform? What if there is #noBasecallingModel for your modification-of-interest? Find it out here!😊https://t.co/PwAWfhy9ra

Last month, the @NovoaLab attended the Premis Nacionals de Recerca ceremony to celebrate @EvaMariaNovoa receiving the National Young Researcher Award!🎉👏
Huge congratulations again, Eva - an incredible and well-deserved recognition! 🧬🏆

Another epic Novoa Lab retreat in the books!
A big thank you to everyone who made it such a success — from the science-packed discussions and hands-on workshops to the brainstorming, games, sunny pool sessions, and delicious BBQs. And special thanks to the organizers!
