Dear Elon,
In these critical days, the people of Iran need internet access. Please help them stay connected as they struggle to reclaim their country from the rule of the mullahs. Stand with the Iranian people. Iran will not forget its friends.

Researchers have developed a novel approach to create tiny “mobile pharmacies” that can get inside tumours and dispense anti-cancer drugs. https://t.co/dKYZjcrpsd

The funding disparity for research trainees is even worse in Quebec, where students face greater financial struggles, as highlighted in @LP_LaPresse.

Celebrating the end of 2024 with our new publication led by @SuiyangLiao: we investigate the role of empty LNPs on transfection efficiency of mRNA- turns out they’re not just silent bystanders, and there’s a balance in how loaded you want your particles: https://t.co/9TKU3nmfjA

@spash039 Great but need to be complemented with other resources.

Look what I learned on Duolingo in 2024! 😁#Duolingo365

[Taha Azad Lab @TahaAzad2]

Happy to share our new paper in Nature Biomedical Engineering! Special congratulations to the first author, Dr. Reza Rezaei, and our amazing collaborators.

Super excited to finally post about our RNA foundation model, led by our very own Ali Saberi (not on Twitter), with @genophoria , @AminMEmad , and @vram142. LoRNA-SH is splice-aware, takes as input the entire pre-mRNA, and models isoform diversity https://t.co/oPpYVYEEEP 1/n

[Hamed Najafabadi @hsnajafabadi]

Check out this exciting work by @genophoria and the team! Codon usage never disappoints!

@DrDrAprilRose @HGJF_JGHF @LDI_ILD Congratulations 🎉

[Taha Azad Lab @TahaAzad2]

Great opportunity!

📢 We have an opening for a postdoctoral researcher, working on statistical and ML models in (transcript)omics. If you're interested in gene regulation and its role in determining cell identity and function, check out our job posting: https://t.co/7cDwB9DRgT

[Hamed Najafabadi @hsnajafabadi]

What is the best strategy to quantify mRNA isoforms? Short-read RNA-seq to achieve high depth? Or long reads to get unambiguous read-isoform assignments? In our latest work with @genophoria, we show that what we really need is to combine both! (1/n) https://t.co/Meev1Mcbqd

[Joanna Przybyl @JoannaPrzybyl]

The registration is open for the 12th Symposium of the RRCancer and MOH-Q! The meeting will be held in the Pierre-Péladeau amphitheatre at the CHUM on September 26th-27th, 2024
