Vervoort Lab - Transcriptional Regulation

Lab @ WEHI and Snow Fellow. Discovery and Targeting of novel regulators of RNAPII-mediated transcription in cancer. #Transcription #CRISPR #RNAPII

[Thomas Norman @thenormanlab]

New preprint on technologies to scale up CRISPR screens.

We use them to map 665,856 pairwise genetic perturbations and outline a path to comprehensive interaction mapping in human cells.

We also introduce an approach for cloning lentiviral libraries with billions of elements.

Our new paper is out on @MolecularCell !!

We show that Integrator complex, is essential for RNA Polymerase II recruitment, pluripotency, and developmental gene regulation in mESCs.

Australia has an “urgent and unparalleled opportunity to attract the smartest minds leaving the United States” —Academy President Prof Chennupati Jagadish AC https://t.co/yxc6eVIzqe

[Australian Academy of Science @Science_Academy]

What happens when we embed smart minds within the Australian R&D system?

When Professor Michelle Simmons AO FRS FAA FTSE decided to call Australia home, she seeded a 30-year development of quantum science that today sees Australia leading the race to develop the first quantum computer.

When Professor Lidia Morawska FAA joined QUT, she gifted Australia world leading expertise in airborne transmission of disease that shaped the global response to COVID-19.

Interested in building a profound and nation-building legacy? Partner with us on our Global Talent Attraction Program.

@SnowMedical @gl_alisa @WEHI_research Huge congratulations to @SnowMedical @gl_alisa and @WEHI_research 🥳.

[Snow Medical @SnowMedical]

We’re thrilled to welcome our 14th Snow Fellow, Dr Alisa Glukhova @gl_alisa, a structural biologist from @WEHI_research. Alisa’s work focusses on how cells communicate and what happens when those signals go wrong, leading to diseases like cancer.
