The government is starving medical research in Australia and we risk losing talent. Thanks @mon4kooyong.bsky.social for asking questions of this government

Congrats to all involved with this study associating mono-allelic POLR3A variants with #peripheralneuropathy.
So good to catch up with some of the key players at #ESHG2025 Milan where Jevin Parmar presented the study on behalf of the collaborative team #raredisease #CMT

Sharing my love of DNA and genomics with a cohort of yr6 kids.
Knackered after 3 classes back to back and hats off to teachers everywhere.
We extracted 🧬 from 🍓 and made 🧬 helices from haribo base-paired bears. Great questions from all the kids and so much engagement

Wonderful to finally have Dr Sanam Mustafa back in Perth with the @perkinsinstitute.bsky.social seminar. Talking about applying GPCR-based tools to Toll receptors to better understand pathways involved in #chronicpain
Sanam was a postdoc in the Pfleger lab at WAIMR/Perkins 2009-11

Great to be at my 1st ESHG meeting & feeling lucky to have a few of the team here too. PhD students Lein Dofash & Jevin Parmar gave great talks last night on gene discoveries. So good to meet POLR3A collaborators IRL. Amazing program, kudos to the SPC incl. Mridul Johari from our team #ESHG2025
