Molecular NeuroGenomics group at @CMN_VIB @UAntwerpen working on identification and characterization of genes involved in neuromuscular disorders (CMT and HSP).
🚨 Our new @Brain1878 study is out!
🧬We report biallelic COX18 variants as a novel cause of autosomal-recessive axonal #CMT.
📃Findings expand knowledge of #Mitochondria Complex IV disorders & give diagnostic clues for undiagnosed neuropathies.

The 2nd edition of Campus Club has been a huge success. High school students visit our fly lab 🪰🔬and learned how they help us map diseases.
They also got to experience the college life and attend many interesting workshops and trial lessons 👩🎓🧑🎓

We had an amazing center day last week filled with scientific achievements, community updates, and some exciting announcements for 2025✨
Congratulations to the winners of our Bio-imaging contest! Their microscopy masterworks can soon be admired in our center hallways 🎨🔬
Today will be a busy day for us💪 @PNSociety1#PNS2024. @ACandayan and @aekshteyn will be standing by their posters (P316 and P46, respectively)! And don't miss the discussion lead by our PI Albena Jordanova on optimising disease modelling in #CMT at 16.30!
Second exciting day at #PNS2024! Posters are up! Pass by 🧬P316 to discuss long-read sequencing with @ACandayan, 🧫 P46 to have some highlights on actin cytoskeleton organization in NMAN by @aekshteyn, and 🦟 P85 to talk about common pathways in aaRS-#CMT with @lauramorant5
Our new preprint is available : Let's celebrate! https://t.co/LHxedp6UtD. A lot of work and brains went into developing the best way to accurately and efficiently analyze Single cell (@10xGenomics )long read (@nanopore) sequencing data generated by us.
We are very proud of The Grant Star 💫 of our group!
Find out more about @ACandayan 's journey and the importance of dealing with frustration on the way to success.
For many more achievements 🥂🍾
