First full draft of the human breast cell atlas from our lab presented by @AustinR96307019 at Dept. of Pharmacology, Univ. Cambridge away day. scRNAseq of ~1M breast cells from 54 women. A treasure trove of data including new insights into cellular changes in Brca1 and Brca2 carriers.


Excited to share our collide-seq paper, just out Mol Syst Biol. Led by Bob Hersbach & David Fischer together with Stricker Lab & Magdalena Götz, we setup a protocol & modeled effects of multiple cell fate conversions based on combinatorial TF expression. embopress.org/doi/full/10.15…


Interested in how cellular barcoding can help us better understand and treat human diseases? Please check out this review from Dr. Len Zon, Jonathan Weissman's Lab, and I in Science Magazine today: science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…


Our paper on a mechanical G2 checkpoint is out now Cell Reports, in which we describe how epithelial cells sense when to divide cell.com/cell-reports/f… Great work from Lisa Donker and everyone that contributed from our lab @umcu_cmm and Xavier Trepat and Borghi labs!


Research Highlight by Madhura Mukhopadhyay. A new study published in @nature from Jarrod Shilts, Gavin Wright & colleagues created an interactome map of all the known receptor-ligand interactions on the surface of human leukocytes using a method called SAVEXIS. nature.com/articles/s4159…





Congratulations to Natasha Harvey, and her Centre for Cancer Biology team for linking lymphatic vessels and blood production. This discovery published in nature is a significant step forward for developmental #biology. ow.ly/Cvw450MMHTJ




Well said Claudine Bonder 👏

Sending a big thank you to Cancer Council SA for their funding support this year and for featuring me on #InternationalWomensDay2023. Thanks too to the great team of women I work with @DRMCRL and to the women who support our work by donating their time, tumor tissue, or money.
