📣 New preprint from the Jakobsson lab! We describe a detailed protocol to inhibit the expression of transposable elements in human pluripotent stem cells, developed thanks to @asapresearch.parkinsonsroadmap.org funding. Special shoutout to @anitaada.bsky.social! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

@raquelgarza.bsky.social from the Jakobsson Lab presented our recent work on single-cell omics (transcriptomics+ proteomics) within our ASAP project at the SciLifeLab Lund day. This work is being done in collaboration with #BioMS and @scilifelab.se. We are looking forward to the discoveries ahead 🌟

Have a look at the new preprint from Team Cragg! We are very happy of having contributed to this great work as a collaboration within the ASAP-CRN network 🧠🔬 @craggasap.bsky.social @asapresearch.parkinsonsroadmap.org

🚨 Have a look at our new preprint: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... A highly collaborative effort where we show that transposable elements are directly linked to a cell-type and region specific inflammatory state in Parkinson’s Disease. @asapresearch.parkinsonsroadmap.org

🧬 🧠A new Cell Genomics study by researchers at @lunduniversity.bsky.social (@jakobssonlab.bsky.social & @jakobssonasap.bsky.social) shows the non-coding genome is active in early brain development & may be relevant for understanding brain disease.

Team Jakobsson gathered in southern Sweden for a few inspiring days discussing PD, transposable elements and future plans. We even squeezed in a hike and enjoyed some beautiful views ☀️🌊 @jakobssonlab.bsky.social @kirkebylab.bsky.social @mollygale.bsky.social @asapresearch.parkinsonsroadmap.org

These past 2 months as a visiting scholar at KU Leuven flew by! It has been so enriching to work side by side with #TeamVoet on @jakobssonasap.bsky.social research into Transposable Elements & Parkinson’s Disease 🧠🧬 Excited for what’s next! #ParkinsonsDisease #MJFF #ASAP #CRN #TransposableElements

Last week, some of us from Team Jakobsson had a great time in Arizona at the 2025 CRN Collaborative Meeting! Plenty of insightful talks and networking. Shoutout to @kirkebylab.bsky.social for a fantastic talk on PSC-based therapies and models of PD 🌟🧬🏜️ #CRNPhoenix2025 @asapresearch.bsky.social

Popcorn worthy research at #CRNPhoenix2025 with @jakobssonasap.bsky.social 🍿 #ParkinsonsDisease #PD #TEsky

🧠🔬 Great meeting last Friday in Copenhagen between the Kirkeby and Jakobsson labs — exciting experiments coming up to investigate transposons in PD in vitro models! @asapresearch.bsky.social @kirkebylab.bsky.social @jakobssonlab.bsky.social

🚨 New pre-print from Team Jakobsson! LINE-1 retrotransposons regulate the exit of human pluripotency and early brain development. This work was led by @anitaada.bsky.social, @raquelgarza.bsky.social and @jakobssonlab.bsky.social from the Jakobsson Lab. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

🌟🧠🧬 Exciting meetup in Cambridge with the Barker, Jones and Jakobsson labs! Great discussions, fresh ideas, and plenty of plans for the next steps. @asapresearch.bsky.social @jakobssonlab.bsky.social

We're thrilled to announce that our project has been funded by @asapresearch.bsky.social in partnership with the Michael J. Fox Foundation! 🚀 Excited to continue exploring the role of transposable elements in Parkinson’s disease. Learn more here: www.lunduniversity.lu.se/article/52-m...
