Emmanuelle Charpentier has been appointed honorary citizen of Umeå Municipality, and in connection with the honorary citizenship ceremony, the Nobel Prize winner is making a long-awaited visit to her alma mater for a public seminar/talk. Read more here: www.umu.se/en/events/se...

#Preprint alert! 📣 We are thrilled to share the work led by Lara Zorro-Shahidian and Lucio di Filippo, in which we show that #MLL2 controls gene expression in both #ESC and upon #differentiation by facilitating the #enhancer like activity of #LINE1 elements www.biorxiv.org/cgi/content/...

Now out @genomeresearch.bsky.social this fantastic work in collaboration with Claudio Cantù's lab. About how #Wnt signalling activation induces #CTCF binding and formation of new #chromatin #loops at #CREs of target genes. genome.cshlp.org/content/earl...

The latest upgrading of the #supercomputer Berzelius @liu.se has now been completed. Its doubled capacity enables researchers across Sweden to tackle current and future challenges in areas such as materials science, bioinformatics and machine learning #research #science tinyurl.com/ydduwzc7

Nu är den senaste uppgraderingen av superdatorn Berzelius @liu.se klar. Med en fördubblad kapacitet kan forskare i hela Sverige ta sig an samtidens och framtidens utmaningar inom bland annat materialvetenskap, bioinformatik och maskininlärning #forskning #vetenskap tinyurl.com/nns7pks6

Really looking forward to @radaiglesiaslab.bsky.social's talk on "Gaining mechanistic insights into long-range gene regulation through synthetic biology approaches" in @enhancedgenomics.bsky.social's seminar series. 📅 June 5th 2025 tomorrow ⏰ 4pm GMT Please join us: us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regi...

A tour de force study from Taipale&Yin labs. It expands the vocabulary of the Regulatory Code by adding 1131 TF:TF composite motifs that are different from the individual TF motifs. The new composite motifs are enriched in cell-type specific elements and active in vivo www.nature.com/articles/s41...
