@SportSciSum Merci 😊

#PhDone🎉
Over a month ago, I defended my thesis about airway inflammation 🫁 and long non-coding RNAs🧬at UGent surrounded by my friends, family, and colleagues. Next to this, I also started as a molecular biologist at OLV Aalst. Up to new scientific and molecular adventures😉

Exited to present my poster at #RNA22 about 3'-end capture sequencing 🧬. Come and visit me at number 39 #rna #oncornalab

[Fien Gysens @Fien_G_]

So happy with our 3'-end capture sequencing article 🧬 @EricJamesdeBony @pieter_mestdagh @OncoRNALab

[Eric James de Bony @EricJamesdeBony]

Happy to share our just published paper. Our approach ensures that sequencing reads are allocated to genes of interest and reduces required depth. A pleasure to work with such a skilled team ! @Fien_G_ @pieter_mestdagh @crighent @ugent_fge @OncoRNALab

Looking forward to pitch my research🧬at the innovation café 💡 #CRISPR #research

[Lana Mulier @LanaMulier]

What can your company obtain from innovative doctoral researchers?💡
Let's exchange knowledge at the #PhDInnovationCafé by @VOKA_OVL @PhDCUGent @DO_UGent on May 17 in WATT The Firms!👉🏼 Registration & information: https://t.co/8aQmFuF3BX

[Cambridge RNA Club @CambridgeRNA]

We'll be back on zoom for the next @CambridgeRNA club event. Join us next week on Thursday 19th of May at 5pm BST for the two exciting talks we have lined-up by @Fien_G_ and @PRAndersen.

Today is world asthma day, a perfect day to highlight the importance of asthma research as asthma is still responsible for around 500 000 deaths per year #WorldAsthmaDay2022 #WorldAsthmaDay #asthma #research

[Fien Gysens @Fien_G_]

This was such a great experience. Big thanks to all the organizers!!! Looking forward to the rest of the program and to pitch my research 🧬

[Lana Mulier @LanaMulier]

Kicked off this year's #PhDInnovationCafé program! 🚀Last Thursday, we hosted a #pitchworkshop for doctoral researchers. This one-day training prepares our contestants to deliver a powerful pitch at the PhD Innovation Café, organized by @PhDCUGent @VOKA_OVL @DO_UGent @DS_UGent

Excited to present my poster about studying lncRNAs in asthma today @narilis_namur conference about ncRNAs

[Fien Gysens @Fien_G_]

Now available online🎉: our review about long non-coding RNAs in asthma 🫁 Thanks to @EricJamesdeBony @pieter_mestdagh and Tania Maes #asthma #lncRNA https://t.co/7l8HbjRO4B

[UZ Gent @uzgent]

Longarts prof. Guy Brusselle & team lanceren nieuwe leidraad voor de behandeling van patiënten met ernstige astma. ‘We kunnen nu het succes voorspellen van verschillende behandelingen met monoclonale antilichamen.' 👉doelgerichter, efficiënter en goedkoper

[RNA-Seq Blog @RNASeqBlog]

Researchers from the @crighent describe a workflow combining 3’-end library preparation with 3’-end hybrid capture probes and shallow #RNAsequencing for cost-effective targeted quantification of subsets of low abundant #genes and transcripts, like #lncRNAs https://t.co/u83NwpF1WW

[Fien Gysens @Fien_G_]

Now available online🎉: our preprint on 3'-end capture sequencing to shift read allocation from most abundant genes to genes of interest with biotinylated probes! Bridging the gap between RNA-Seq and qPCR! @oncoRNAlab @EricJamesdeBony @pieter_mestdagh https://t.co/KIlXprkRDl

[Pieter Mestdagh @pieter_mestdagh]

So happy this is finally out! Hope this RNA-Atlas will serve as a community resource to support #ncRNA research. ⁦⁦Sumazin lab @lucia_lorenzi⁩ ⁦@Genomics_Guy⁩ ⁦@jvdesomp⁩ ⁦@crighent⁩ ⁦@ResearchUGent⁩ ⁦@NatureBiotech⁩ https://t.co/voxM7EQsnc

Excited to attend the Keystone symposium about ncRNAs and show my ePoster today #VKSNonCodingRNA21

[Fien Gysens @Fien_G_]

Just had my first talk at a conference! It may be online, but sharing science is still important. Thank you #researchday2021 @ugent_fge @UGent_Pharma @UGent_VetMed

[Elfride De Baere @elfridedebaere]

You can still register for the #ResearchDay2021 of 3 #LifeSciences faculties @UGent_fge @UGent_VetMed @UGent_Pharma and of student organisations. Have a look at our exciting program! https://t.co/gW0ZT6j0Wl @ResearchUGent

[CRIG @crighent]

Even in challenging COVID-19 times, our researchers kept and keep going 💪. Shout out to them on this World Cancer Day! Want to show your appreciation? 👉 Buy a unique CRIG face mask to support their research https://t.co/fhu2waVb4M 1000x Thx! 💙@ugent @uzgent @VIBLifeSciences
