PhD student at MRC_HGU Ersi Christodoulou and Dr. Vidya Rajasekaran-Sutherland from Edinburgh Cancer Research recently sat down to discuss #BowelCancer, #PrecisionMedicine and the future of personalised healthcare. New blog post: blogs.ed.ac.uk/institute-gene…

"You can do good science anywhere - but you need to have good mentorship and support.” #PhD student Christine Rodger interviews MRC_HGU Group Leader Catalina Vallejos (catavallejos.bsky.social) for this new blog post: 'A (Virtual) Sit Down with Dr Catalina Vallejos' blogs.ed.ac.uk/institute-gene… #WomenInScience

Edinburgh people! There is a mobile vaccination bus on Waverley Bridge, practically no queue at all at the moment! Here til Wednesday and open 8-4:30pm.

I’m going to use the The Times and The Sunday Times bar-chart approach next time the results of my experiments do not come out as I had hoped…

My latest blogpost shows how you can use Obsidian for academic writing and taking notes from Zotero! Hope you enjoy 😁 universvm.medium.com/obsidian-tutor…

To round off the day, students were split into groups to work with our researchers. This gave the students a first-hand experience of the facilities across Centre for Genomic and Experimental Medicine, Edinburgh Cancer Research and MRC_HGU Thank you to all of the researchers and students who took part! #ScienceInsights22

Today, with huge thanks to Ealing Hospital, we planted a tree - the UK’s only memorial to NHS staff who have died by suicide. May they rest in peace, and may we redouble our efforts to stop it happening ever in the future. 3/3

Hey everyone! I wrote a short article on #stablediffusion with Pokémon ! Have a look and let me know what you think 😀 universvm.medium.com/latent-diffusi…

For those interested in doing a PhD in epigenetics, we have a BBSRC EastBio DTP project collaborating with Ramon Grima using single-molecule analysis of Nanopore data to understand the regulation of DNA methylation patterns. Deadline 5th Dec (please RT): ed.ac.uk/mrc-human-gene…

Yesterday I decided to stop editing out all the exclamation marks in my emails. I’ve done this for years to seem “more professional.” But what does that really mean???? Less female? Less young? Less excited? Well I’m young and female and IM EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Get used to it.

Just given a stand-up comedy presentation about my science at the Genetics Society's Communicating your Science Workshop #gscys2023 . Very out my comfort zone but very fun

This week, 40+ fifth year high school pupils are at The University of Edinburgh to take part in Science Insights - our exciting work experience programme for budding research scientists. We're looking forward to welcoming everyone to the Institute tomorrow! #SI2023 ed.ac.uk/medicine-vet-m…

#SI2023 pupils in pairs shadow our staff & students for a 2-hour IGC Wet or Dry Lab / Facility Taster Session, to gain insights into HOW research is undertaken here Institute of Genetics and Cancer MRC_HGU Edinburgh Cancer Research Centre for Genomic and Experimental Medicine. Thanks to everyone who enabled this. Institute for Regeneration and Repair The Roslin Institute

That's a wrap for our Doors Open Days! Was wonderful to welcome so many curious and engaged visitors for talks, tours and drop in activities. Many thanks to all of our staff and student volunteers!

I'm excited to be speaking at #TEDxUniversityofEdinburgh about "AI and Healthcare: The Next Frontier"! eventbrite.co.uk/e/tedxuniversi… TEDxUniversityofEdinburgh TEDx

🌟 Delved into "#AI and #Healthcare: The Next Frontier" at TEDxUniversityofEdinburgh. From retina scans & MRI tech to protein design, AI emerges as a valuable ally in healthcare is pivotal. However... can we trust it? Video link coming soon. Thanks to everyone who joined! 🚀 TED Talks

🌟🎥 My TEDx talk 'AI in Healthcare: The Next Frontier' is now on YouTube! Explore how #AI will revolutionize #Healthcare, from enhancing retina scans and leveraging #LLMs and #ChatGPT 🤖💬to developing cures with #ProteinDesign 🧬. Ready to dive in? youtu.be/3PbEgLw6lJ0

Looks like it will be a great meeting and sorry to be missing it, enjoy everyone. Look out for Christine Rodger and Andreanna Wright from the lab to hear about their exciting projects using synthetic biology to understand DNA methylation. #epigenetics.

Went with Christine Rodger to see Richard Dawkins talk about genetics, evolution, and proteins! Also got him to sign our copy The Selfish Gene 🧬
