🔊 We are excited to announce a new Associate Professor (Prof.Agregada) at @geneticsub.bsky.social @biologiaub.bsky.social!
👏 Congrats to Dr. Cristina González on her new position!
🧬 Her group aims to understand the metabolic modulation of early regeneration events using planarians as a model system.

#OpenCloning is a an Open Source alternative to SnapGene/Benchling that supports automation and integration with other software

✅ Free
🔓 Open Source
🧬 More cloning methods than SnapGene
🤖 Can be automated with python
👨‍🔬 Built by a researcher — for researchers!

👉 Check it out at opencloning.org

Interested in measuring RNAPII elongation rates? We developed DRB/TTchem-seq2 to directly measure rates across 3,000+ genes 🧬

This fantastic work led by Haiyue Liu reveals gene and intra-genic variation, links to histone marks & elongation factors
Details below! 👇

I’m really happy to present #SCALPEL, a new #Nextflow tool to quantify transcript isoforms at the single-cell level using conventional 3’ scRNA-seq data #scRNA-seq #single-cell #tools #isoforms

🚨We are looking for post-doctoral candidates to apply for a MSCA fellowship.

Projects on gene regulation in neural development or neurdegenerative diseases using single-cell omics.

Computational & wet-lab candidates are welcomed! #postdoc #MSCA #Barcelona #singlecell.

🚨 We’re recruiting PhD students! 🚨

Join the Stem Cell Biology and Evolution lab at @lsiexeter.bsky.social to study planarians, stem cells & evolution.

2 projects available - 1 week left to apply!
Interested and no PhD yet? Apply now. Or help us spread the word! 🙌

Franz Arnold Ake from @idibell.bsky.social presented SCALPEL, a Nextflow-based pipeline to quantify and characterize isoforms at single-cell resolution. Fascinating work that will be applied to study alternative polyadenylation during neural differentiation and neurodegenerative diseases.🧠

Enjoy the #NextflowSummit, @franzake.bsky.social!

Excited to see you are spreading the word!

It’s so nice to see this work finally out! It developed so much since its early days. The idea of long lived RNA as experience decoys is huge. Still a lot of work to be done but this is a great first step forward. Happy to have been part of it!

Huge effort from @anaconesa.bsky.social at @scb.iec.cat comparing long-read RNA technologies @pacbio.bsky.social @nanoporetech.com and softwares #sqanti3, #bambu, #talon, #isoquant, for isoform discovery, still challenging to disentangle real biology from artefacts

for closing the day at the #XIIJornadesBioinformàticaiGenòmica from @scb.iec.cat we have Akshay presenting a poster about STAU2 function in neurogenesis.

Thrilled to have shared my mayfly research from @isabelalmudi.bsky.social lab at the #XIIJornadadeBioinformàticaiGenòmica in Lleida, organised by @scb.iec.cat. An inspiring day of brilliant talks and meaningful discussions! #EvoDevo #Bioinformatics #scRNAseq

Spreading our work at the XII Jornades de Bioinformàtica i Genòmica de la @scb.iec.cat @tmontsay.bsky.social about our recent discovery rdcu.be/d04Gz of pervasive presence of not completly lysed cells in reference cell atlases @humancellatlas.org compromising quality & model training

and now a talk by Franz Ake presenting SCALPEL, a pipeline for isoform quantification in single-cell data. #XIIJornadesBioinformàticaiGenòmica from @scb.iec.cat . #Nextflow #single-cell

Brilliant presentation by @jamesasharpe.bsky.social at XII Jornades de Bioinformàtica i Genòmica by @scb.iec.cat about mechanistic dynamical models and #Turing patterns to go from genes to phenotypes

first time scr4eam goes public! realistic & isoform-aware simulator of single-cell reads. short talk from @mschilli87.bsky.social at the #XIIJornadesBioinformaàticaiGenòmica #benchmarktools #scrna-seq
