🌍 The EU2HIV Symposium in Ghent runs until 17 September!
Yesterday, our PI Carine Van Lint presented:
"Molecular mechanisms of CD8+ T cell-mediated non-cytolytic HIV-1 silencing" 🦠
Exciting science and discussions on HIV cure! 🔬

Unbiased and comprehensive identification of virus-derived circular RNAs in a large range of viral species and families
Author summary Circular RNAs differ from linear RNAs in that they lack free ends, making them more stable in the extracellular environment. Previous studies have shown that they can play important rol...

Evidence That Dmrta2 Acts through Repression of Pax6 in Cortical Patterning and Identification of a Mutation Impairing DNA Recognition Associated with Microcephaly in Human
Dmrta2 (also designated Dmrt5) is a transcriptional regulator expressed in cortical progenitors in a caudomedialhigh/rostrolaterallow gradient with important roles at different steps of cortical devel...
