Review: AI to advance CRISPR-based genome editing technologies www.nature.com/articles/s41... (read free: rdcu.be/eQKtm)

I highly recommend this fantastic review by Jennifer A. Korchak, S. Stephen Yi, @nlkproteomics.bsky.social, Nidhi Sahni and Gloria M. Sheynkman!

And it's a whopper of an issue!

Walking around the office looking for a print copy yesterday... "Oh yeah, I saw your Stranger Things cover over there..." 😁

Preprint site arXiv is banning computer-science reviews: here’s why www.nature.com/articles/d41...

It was a fun one!

New commentary from @katholt.bsky.social just dropped 😊

The findings of a study in Nature shed light on germline selection dynamics and highlight a broader increased disease risk for children born to fathers of advanced age than previously appreciated. go.nature.com/4h5BglX 🧬 🧪

This was a really nice review to work on: A genomic view of Earth’s biomes go.nature.com/3VTLImU by Gitta Szabó, Emiley A. Eloe-Fadrosh, Jennifer Pett-Ridge & Tanja Woyke

🎉 25 years of NRG! Feels a bit bonkers to think I’ve been at the helm for almost 12 years 🤯 Where did the time go???

hey bluesky 👋 visa hurdles mean I’m looking for opportunities outside the US. I’m a computational biologist (bacterial + phage genomics, postdoc in Koonin’s group @ NIH). I am interested in teaming up on funding apps. reach out if this resonates!

Very happy to have contributed to this review on "non-CG" #methylation in animals now out in @natgenet.nature.com. Working again with @obog.bsky.social and Tirsa is always a pleasure. We think this not so well studied form of methylation should be more widely considered, please read: rdcu.be/eFAEk

Review: Transcriptomics in the era of long-read sequencing www.nature.com/articles/s41... (read free: rdcu.be/efBjP) 🧬🖥️🧪

There is a lack of general terminology for translated regions that does not depend on the properties of their products or their sequence. Spearheaded by Pavel (Pasha) Baranov, this primer provides a unifying nomenclature for translation units: *Translon* www.nature.com/articles/s41...

A Review in Nature Reviews Genetics discusses how genomic advances have enhanced our understanding of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and major depressive disorder, which could address limitations in diagnostic frameworks and future treatment strategies. go.nature.com/44bKTuy 🧬 🧪

What gif pops up when you type your name

Our August 2025 issue is now live: go.nature.com/4kIXzOI Topics include: systems biology in the single-cell era; ADAR1-mediated RNA editing; retrotransposable element reactivation and its biological impact; transcriptional condensates as temporal signal integrators; X-linked competition

Interested in using functional data to understand clinical variants? Been hunting for a good review of the topic? We just wrote one! rdcu.be/exaEU

We (with Clement Coclet, not on Bsky) had the chance to work on a broad "state of viromics" review. We tried to use this to give an overview of how the field changed over the last ~ 15 years, and also what we think are some of the major remaining challenges. Full-text access at -> rdcu.be/excHt

New review article with @mmdesai.bsky.social is out today! Grateful for the opportunity to contribute something we hope will serve the community well

More equitable methods are needed to ensure genomic research benefits everyone fairly, according to a new review article in Nature Reviews Genetics involving Genomics England researchers. Find out more: www.nature.com/articles/s41... @natrevgenet.nature.com

Happy to share my Journal Club piece in Nature Reviews Genetics, reflecting on the ancient DNA studies from Sima de los Huesos: 'A crossroads in the timeline of human evolution'. 🙂 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Excited to share our review in Nature Reviews Genetics on cell-type deconvolution! "Cell-type deconvolution methods for spatial transcriptomics" 🔗 nature.com/articles/s41... 📖 Free access: rdcu.be/el0Ka

This is a piece that I and @karsten-rippe.bsky.social discussing a lot, and a topic that is very close to my heart. The editors @naturerevgenet.bsky.social gave us the stage to do so, and the final version of our review is now available under this link: rdcu.be/erP1u A short thread follows 1/n

Our July 2025 issue is now live: go.nature.com/3ZzmXyQ Topics include: structural variation in the human genome; cytoplasmic mRNA decay; the mammalian segmentation clock; genetic models and genomic studies of cancer metastasis

Just in time for #RNA2025 #RNA25!

Our June issue is live and includes an editorial on RNA splicing (go.nature.com/3SdWVgk) that acts as a foreword for a new joint collection by @natrevgenet.nature.com‬ and ‪@natrevmcb.nature.com‬ on this topic (go.nature.com/3H0vEvp)

Together with the De Ridder lab www.deridderlab.nl we just published a review on deep learning as a tool for gene expression analysis/ prediction: rdcu.be/elQCc.

Also, being able to rewind is an absolute godsend! 😁 #virtual #BOG25

Playing catch-up on yesterday's #BOG25 talks virtually. Yay for meerkats! (there really should be a meerkat emoji)

Farewell sweet seaside bank holiday weekend 💙

I missed this when it came out last week... Such a multi-generational tour de force!!! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Office day

I wrote about how we must stand and fight against the threat of eugenics. Fueled by white nationalism and scientific racism, these beliefs are factually wrong and ethically abhorrent. This fight includes supporting efforts to diversify our workforce & science. To stop now would be a deep betrayal.

Telomere-to-telomere genome sequences of six ape species: chimpanzee, bonobo, gorilla, Bornean & Sumatran orangutan, & siamang!

Long reads such as @nanoporetech.com or @pacbio.bsky.social can provide insights into epigenetic. We @yileifu.bsky.social & @timp0.bsky.social )summarize the latest #Bioinformatics approaches & why this matters! Out now @natrevgenet.bsky.social at: bit.ly/4cjxUtl @bcmhouston.bsky.social @jhu.edu

Kudos to @anaconesa.bsky.social and @conesalab.bsky.social for taking on the challenge of writing not 1 but 2 reviews for @natrevgenet.bsky.social and @naturegenet.bsky.social on long-read sequencing for transcriptomics and epigenomics, respectively -- I knew it was a big ask at the time! 🤩
