Now it’s the turn for Dr. Anne Jørgensen’s talk (Herlev and Gentofte Hospital), giving us molecular insights into the underlying mechanisms of sex-specific development of human fetal gonads. #17NYRA is full of an exciting diversity of topics!

The last day of #17NYRA started with the fascinating talk of Dr. Elizabeth Bromfield (Bio21 Institute, University of Melbourne) about the protein modifications as potential novel targets of male contraception! Lots of cool phosphoproteomics data to start the Sunday 🙌🏻

The scientific sessions of the first day finish with a very thought-provoking #debate about male contraception, sponsored by the #MCI. Amazing pro/cons arguments raised by young andrologists about current societal and scientific challenges! #17NYRA

The scientific speed dating was so fun! During our favourite NYRA flagship activity, attendees, board members, and speakers mixed to better know the research they develop 🧪🧬 A very fun way to find your next collaboration! #17NYRA

After the coffee break, the program continues with the presentation of Dr. Judit Castillo (@ub.edu) about the epigenetic information contained in the sperm chromatin. Super excited to learn about the career path and scientific work of a former NYRA board member! 🤩 #17NYRA

Very inspiring first plenary session in which Dr. Geert Hamer (@amsterdamumc.bsky.social) is sharing with us his exciting research journey in the male germline across his career ⭐️ #17NYRA

#NYRASchool in Omics for male germ cells is unraveling fabulously!👾 Even the organising committee and the teachers are learning from each other. Absolutely priceless! Proud of my @youngandrology.bsky.social 💡

Thursday started fully immersed in single-cell RNA-seq data analysis! We are learning how to annotate, plot, and interprete UMAPs - and realizing that our biological background in male germ cells is a key complement to the bioinfo analyses! #NYRASchool

Learning about sample preparation for Single Cell RNA-seq with practical tips from Sara di Persio 🧬 #NYRASchool

The first part of #NYRASchool is wrapped up this morning. In addition to mastering the Bulk-RNAseq data analysis, Lena shared valuable tips on data visualisation. 📊 Our vulcano plots and heatmaps were pieces of art 🎨

After learning how to process bulk #RNAseq data this morning, students are fully immersed into differential expression analysis! #NYRASchool
