wellcome early-career research fellow with @L_andreae @dev_neuro
at the crossroads of RNA and neuroscience! previously post-doc @ule_lab

[Flora Lee @fcylee]

It was a special day to finally meet everyone at the Centre! I look forward to starting more interdisciplinary RNA+neurodev research with my sponsors and collaborators!

[CDN | King's College @dev_neuro]

Congratulations Flora Lee on being awarded a 5 year @wellcometrust Early Career Award! Today is her first day at the CDN. She will be working with @L_andreae looking at synaptic mRNA dysregulation in neurodevelopmental disorders.

[Boris Lenhard @BorisLenhard]

Our paper on the origin and properties of elusive 3' UTR-derived capped mRNA fragments is out.
Great work by @NejcHaberman in collaboration with @AidaMartinezS, @TheSibleyLab, @GroupLenhard .

Excited to report our study in @NEJM on the discovery of deletions in a long noncoding RNA gene 🧬 (𝘊𝘏𝘈𝘚𝘌𝘙𝘙) as the cause of a newly defined human neurodevelopmental disorder 🧠. 🧵1/10 https://t.co/a0V99Xqjaw

[Miha Modic @paraspeckle]

Thrilled to share our latest manuscript on smOOPs, a highly interconnected class of condensation-prone mRNAs with signs of coordinated regulation, encoding functionally related proteins. Shoutout to the incredible team @IraIosub, Jona & @KlobucarTajda. https://t.co/7m80OqIVTl

We show that Human ribosomes have different rRNA sequences, predominantly indels. These include abundant variants such as GGC indels, which form different structures. We visualize variants in single cells and associate them with development and cancer.

How do different neuronal populations and compartments determine molecular and synaptic diversity? Check out our collaborative effort for parallel transcriptomic and proteomic profiling of the hippocampus! @erin_schuman Lab at @MpiBrain @biorxiv_neursci

[The Blencowe Lab @ U of T @Blencowe_Lab]

Out now: Using highly sensitive luminescence splicing reporters, we screened ~95,000 small-molecule compounds for modulators of neuronal microexons, a class of highly conserved alternative splicing misregulated in #autism & #NeuroendocrineCancer. 1/4 https://t.co/o1vmQunLRn

[Oded Rechavi @OdedRechavi]

It took more than a DECADE... but finally it’s published!!! It started as a CRAZY idea but after tons of hard work we built it: We hijacked the endogenous secretion systems of Toxoplasma gondii, a brain parasite, to deliver active proteins to neurons 👇

A heads up to all post-docs - the Genome Biology dept @EMBL is recruiting - independent group leader (PI) position. Outstanding colleagues, students, world-leading core facilities in a very supportive, collaborative and family environment, #jobs. Ad will be posted in next days

[Subramaniam Lab @arvind_rasi]

RNAs are spliced, translated, and degraded in cells.

How do we identify the cellular factors that control these RNA metabolic events in human cells?

To tackle this question, grad student Patrick Nugent has developed an RNA-linked CRISPR screening technology called ReLiC. 1/

[Miha Modic @paraspeckle]

How can cellular signalling swiftly & selectively remodel the transcriptome to drive biological transition? How this switch is orchestrated has been a mystery... 🧵
