We released our preprint on the CREsted package. CREsted allows for complete modeling of cell type-specific enhancer codes from scATAC-seq data. We demonstrate CREsted’s robust functionality in various species and tissues, and in vivo validate our findings: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Thrilled to see the new version of our work out! A fantastic collaboration with @frankschnorrer.bsky.social @steinaerts.bsky.social @pierremangeol.bsky.social, Nikolai and Gabriele to do spatial transcriptomics in the adult fly -- huge thanks to everyone for bringing this to the finish line! 🙏🪰
Spatial transcriptomics in fly brain and body. Wonderful collaboration with @steinaerts.bsky.social led by @jasperjanssens.bsky.social @pierremangeol.bsky.social Nikolai Hecker & Gabriele Partel - look at mRNA patterns in muscles and brains spatialfly.aertslab.org

Just very happy to have our paper out today! A big thanks to all our co-authors, and to Nikolai and @steinaerts.bsky.social for the teamwork over the past years. If you are interested in using our models for cross-species enhancer studies, check out crested.readthedocs.io/en/stable/mo... 🙂
In a new study, Nikolai Hecker, Niklas Kempynck et al. in the team of @steinaerts.bsky.social explore 300 million years of brain evolution through the lens of enhancer codes.

Enhancer-driven cell type comparison reveals similarities between the mammalian and bird pallium
Combinations of transcription factors govern the identity of cell types, which is reflected by genomic enhancer codes. We used deep learning to characterize these enhancer codes and devised three metr...
