It's 25 yrs to the day since the Human Genome Project & Craig Venter declared joint victory in sequencing the human genome - an ideal time for @wellcometrust.bsky.social to annouce their new project, involving our lab, to begin work towards synthesising human genomes. wellcome.org/news/researc...
Researchers take first steps to creating synthetic human genomes | Wellcome
Scientists are developing technology to create the first synthetic human chromosome. The ability to write large genomes could transform our understanding of health.

What a beautiful story and triumph! Congratulations to José and Matthias.
Proteins of amino acid metabolism form large structures and determine diffusion in the cytoplasm!

Our 7-year-long tour-de-force is now out on Bioxriv www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Thanks everyone involved! And especially to Jose Losa who pioneered this!

How does tumour heterogeneity arise? How can we predict cancer cell plasticity? In 2 new studies, we trace #glioblastoma heterogeneity to a spatial cancer cell trajectory w. multimodal cell atlassing bit.ly/4mkrWgs & predict plasticity w. snRNA/ATAC+deep learning bit.ly/3FbI6Ic 🧵
