Glad to share that the website for the MZT EMBO workshop that I organize together with Ana Boskovic (EMBL, Rome), Antonio Giraldez (Yale U) and Melissa Harrison (U Wisconsin) is out: meetings.embo.org/event/26-awa...
Please spread the word and join us in beautiful Seville next 4-7 May!
Awakening the Genome During Developmental Reprogramming: From Embryos to Organoids
This EMBO Workshop explores the gene-regulatory mechanisms that drive developmental reprogramming upon fertilization. It focuses on the interplay of transcriptional, post-transcriptional, and develop…

Excited to share the latest work from the lab led by @eharo84.bsky.social, in which we have used synthetic biology to explore the mechanisms by which different types of long-range enhancers ensure robust and precise developmental gene expression

Synthetic engineering demonstrates that synergy among enhancers involves an increase in transcriptionally productive enhancer-gene contacts
Enhancers are non-coding cis-regulatory elements that control the expression of distally located genes in a tissue- and time-specific manner. Recent studies indicate that enhancers can differ in their...

If you are attending #EMBLChromatin, go and check @mariamafau.bsky.social poster and learn more about how ZIC2 controls neural induction and patterning by playing a dual and sequential regulatory role.
#EMBLChromatin keeps being awesome: fantastic talks, lots of networking and troubleshooting! But guess who is also multitasking? ZIC2! Particularly during neural induction! Come by this afternoon to check poster 158 and I’ll tell you all about it 😉 @radaiglesiaslab.bsky.social
