Yesterday, I had the privilege of celebrating the 25th anniversary of #VIBNucleomicsCore by giving a talk on how their outstanding support has advanced our research through cutting-edge technologies and genuine scientific partnership.

Congratulations to the entire team on this amazing milestone!✨🥂

Funding for rare disease research is very scarce 💔Therefore support from foundations like ABMM is so valuable! Together we'll make a positive change in the lives of patients with rare neuromuscular disorders 💪
Congratulations to Silvia Amor-Barris, Akram Khanghahi, and Ayse Candayan from the @jordanovalab.bsky.social on securing research grants from the Belgian Association of Patients with Neuromuscular Disorders (ABMM-Telethon)!

While I’m trying to promote my science in this platform, I cannot turn a blind eye to what’s happening in my home country. Beautiful people undergoing unjust treatment is not something new in Türkiye, but it’s by no means something we should get used to. #HakHukukAdalet
NEW: Elon Musk’s X has suspended accounts of Turkish opposition groups, suppressing footage of anti-government protests.

So, best we share all the footage we can here!

This was last night’s massive demo against Erdogan’s government, which follows the arrest of his rival Ekrem İmamoğlu.

#RNGS2025 was a blast, I’m already looking forward to the next edition. ⏭️⏭️

See my pitch below to see what I presented at the conference 👩‍🔬and let’s connect if you are interested in long-read sequencing 🧬
Last week, we spoke to Ayse Candayan, a Postdoc @jordanovalab.bsky.social , who explores advancements in genetic diagnostics for neurodegenerative disorders, focusing on the challenges and insights gleaned from long-read sequencing. ▶️Watch her #RNGS25 video pitch to find out more.
