#PhD #PhDSky

I’m excited to highlight our latest paper, just published in Cell 🎉

We report the existence of a previously uncharacterized signaling pathway that is responsible for activating cell death upon loss of gene expression.

The May issue of #G3journal features work by Paltenghi and @jsvanleeuwen.bsky.social which identifies highly conserved genetic suppression mechanisms across genetically diverse yeast isolates in an effort to reduce disease severity in genetic disorders.

The latest work of PhD student Claire Paltenghi
@fbm-unil.bsky.social @unil.bsky.social @umasschan.bsky.social, on the conservation of genetic suppression interactions across genetic contexts, now published in G3 @genetics-gsa.bsky.social: doi.org/10.1093/g3jo...

<grumble> funding agencies, scoring schemes on “clarity of hypothesis” is quite a straightjacket. There is plenty of v good discovery/ hypothesis generating science which doesn’t have a “narrow” hypothesis

For those of you interested in cancer synthetic lethality, this should be a v interesting Gordon Conference organised by @mgarnett.bsky.social @vazquezf.bsky.social & Benjamin Schwartz- highly recommended ! www.grc.org/synthetic-le...

Some science news to brighten up your timelines ☀️ Our latest work on the modifiers that cause changes in gene essentiality between genetic backgrounds, now on bioRxiv: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

So what did we find?

We're delighted to share our work on scrambling the human genome using prime editing, repetitive elements, and recombinases in @science.org , led by @jonaskoeppel.bsky.social , @f-raphael.bsky.social , with @proftomellis.bsky.social and George Church.
