Have you been interested combining Perturb-Seq screening with Cas12a’s unique capabilities for multiplexed guide RNA expression? Us too! So, we figured out some useful tricks to make that possible, which you can find in our new pre-print. Short thread below: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Degron-modified Cas12a enhances single-cell CRISPR screening
Single-cell CRISPR (Perturb-seq) screens have primarily relied on Cas9 whereas Cas12a, despite its unique effectiveness for multiplex guide expression, remains underexplored. This may be due to Cas12a...

Excited to share our work @science.org. led by our incredible @tommyz626.bsky.social at @rockefelleruniv.bsky.social! By profiling 21 million single cells across life stages, we reveal aging as distinct, development-like transitions, with dramatic cell population changes in specific time windows!
A panoramic view of cell population dynamics in mammalian aging
To elucidate aging-associated cellular population dynamics, we present PanSci, a single-cell transcriptome atlas profiling over 20 million cells from 623 mouse tissues across different life stages, se...

📢 Preprint! How does the environment of a father before conception influence offspring?

Even more, how do paternal genetics & ages interact with exposures to affect F1 outcome?

We tested this systematically, with intriguing findings & some cautionary tales🧵...
