Congratulations to the team. We hope the community find these data useful @DepMapSanger. I'd like to make special mention of the skilled & dedicated scientific technical staff @sangerinstitute and #Procan that make possible generation of these large datasets. @TechsCommit.
We're recruiting a Senior Staff Scientist to map genetic interactions to understand epistasis in health and disease. Come help lead a multidisciplinary team to tackle this fundamental challenge in our understanding of genes and genomes. https://t.co/bzN64j3MNS #sangerinstitute
(1/5) We are delighted to share the updated Project Score database (https://t.co/PU6EPimYrE) and accompanying paper @NAR_Open (https://t.co/heUl4g2uyE). The Project Score database uses CRISPR screens to investigate cancer dependencies and prioritise candidate targets.
Elegant analysis of the mechanism underpinning WRN dependency in MSI tumours and great to see the field moving forward so rapidly. congratulations to the team involved.
Don't miss this opportunity! Opening for Head of Data Science at Mosaic Therapeutics. Mosaic is a new spin-out from the Sanger using advanced computational methods and next-generation cancer models to find new synthetic-lethal cancer targets. Please RT

Good protocols are critical for advancing science. Thanks to the work of the technical team @sangerinstitute to produce these beautiful SOP for deriving and culturing tumour organoids. Includes tips, images and videos, all freely available. @TechsCommit#depmap@CancerDepMap
The GDSC website (https://t.co/IBaBFz6NN7) has been upgraded with two new features to enhance your analysis. GDSC hosts differential drug sensitivity data across 1,000 human cancer cell lines for hundreds of anti-cancer drugs, together with genomic biomarkers of drug sensitivity.
This is great work by @DepMapSanger@CancerDepMap working collaboratively to bring together an integrated dataset for 800 cell lines. Have fun everyone who, like us, enjoys working with these rich datasets! #depmap#CRISPR
Our review on "Genomics-guided pre-clinical development of cancer therapies", published with @SpringerNature in @NatureCancer is now out! SharedIt link: https://t.co/BJ45tVeNkb [https://t.co/7A7hMECNM3]. Many thanks to coauthors @HayleyFrancies @ultanmcd. #CancerResearch
CELLector is useful new tool that mines clinical data to define molecular sub-types and then maps these onto in vitro cancer models. This can help you find the right cell model for your work. Congratulation to @HannaNajgebauer @Francesco_i0ri0 and team. Part of @DepMapSanger
My webinar on using functional genomics for cancer drug discovery is now available to view here: https://t.co/y3iPNbDZOq. Join me for a live Q&A at 1pm today. @DepMapSanger#depmap

Please come along if you're interested to learn how we're using functional genomics data - including CRISPR screens - to inform multiple aspects of drug discovery including target discovery and drug mechanism of action.
This is important work to track and prevent further transmission of #COVID19. It leverages world-class capabilities for DNA sequencing and analysis built up over decades. Thanks to the dedicated team @sangerinstitute and across the UK making this possible.
In response to the ongoing #COVID19 pandemic, we will deploy our large-scale genome sequencing platform, alongside regional sequencing centres, to better understand the coronavirus outbreak in the UK

Great career opportunity as a Senior Staff Scientist in our lab (https://t.co/3dh2hOkeSV). Help lead our efforts using functional genomics to study genetic epistasis in cancer. A diverse and challenging role with opportunity for development. Closing date March 26th. Please RT.
New data release from GDSC project includes 60,434 new IC50 values from 70 additional compounds. The total dataset now includes 446,000 dose response curves for 565 drugs. All available through the GDSC data portal: @https://www.cancerrxgene.org/ #Depmap
I'm delighted to share that I have joined @targetvalidate team as Experimental Science Director and I look forward to working more closely with the fantastic Open Targets community.
