💫 Thank you to all participants and speakers who joined us at the 2nd @eurocancerdepmap.bsky.social Symposium!

Together, we’re advancing #cancer functional genomics across Europe.

Last but not least, we are thrilled to have representatives from academia, industry, foundations and publishers to share with us their take during the roundtable discussion on Bridging Sectors for Translational Impact!

And we finish this session with @epetsalaki.bsky.social showing the potential of using CRISPR data to study context specific signalling and drug responses

The last session starts with Lodewyk Wessels from @nkinl.bsky.social sharing the work on perturbation response models!

@colmr.bsky.social takes the stage to share the work of his group that aims to understand and predict synthetic lethality between paralogs in cancer

@emanuelvgo.bsky.social insisting the metaphors used in @eurocancerdepmap.bsky.social presentations have strong Portuguese representation 😄

Next we have @emanuelvgo.bsky.social , presenting the work on Minimal Libraries and use of AI-Synthetic Augmentation of CRISPR-Cas9 Screens for Drug Target Discovery

We are back, starting the afternoon session with a joint talk by Debora Sesia/ @ciriellolab.bsky.social and @aurorasavino.bsky.social / @ioriolab.bsky.social showing their work on the functional assessment of Variants of Unknown Significance through cancer dependency map data analysis

To wrap up the second session, Roland Rad from the Institute of Molecular Oncology and Functional Genomics is sharing their work on mapping genetic interactions in cancer evolution and therapy @eurocancerdepmap.bsky.social

We continue with the talk from @icrlordlab.bsky.social focusing on the complexity of synthetic lethality in cancer and how we can move forward in exploiting it @eurocancerdepmap.bsky.social

The Synthetic Lethality and Innovations in CRISPR Screening session begins with @manuelkaulich.bsky.social telling us about exciting CRISPR libraries they have developed and how nuclear mRNA processing can mask the CRISPRko phenotypes @eurocancerdepmap.bsky.social

First session of the @eurocancerdepmap.bsky.social symposium and so much fantastic work presented already! #CancerResearch #TranslationalScience #plasticity

Now @alejandrapcelab.bsky.social is taking us through the multidimensional map of early adaptation to treatment and how targeting cell plasticity can prevent childhood cancer relapse @eurocancerdepmap.bsky.social

We start with Carmen Herranz-Ors from @sangerinstitute.bsky.social giving us an overview of the impressive work done to generate Tumour Organoid Biobank and develop a 3D Dependency Map @eurocancerdepmap.bsky.social

The 2nd @eurocancerdepmap.bsky.social meeting is starting with introduction from @francescoiorio.bsky.social ! Full day of exciting talks ahead. Stay with us for live updates @humantechnopole.bsky.social
