PRC2 Promotes Canalisation During Endodermal Differentiation eeb.embo.org/doi/10.1101/20… Robert Illingworth, Wendy Bickmore, Josh Brickman, Dipta Sengupta , The University of Edinburgh



2-year computational postdoc position available to join our growing team to work on super-enhancers & transcription factors in AML University College Dublin. This project will use patient biopsies to identify 'epigenomic' sensitivities for this devastating cancer. conwaychromatinlab.com/team




Shifting the pitch and contours of Waddington’s valleys, putative enhancers, and transcription through H3K27me3 chromatin in the endoderm. Find it all here: journals.plos.org/plosgenetics/a…. Fantastic collaboration with Josh Brickman and Wendy Bickmore. Well done Jurriaan and Dipta Sengupta.


Robert Illingworth Josh Brickman Wendy Bickmore Dipta Sengupta Congrats Rob! Nice demonstration of transcriptional activation before PRC2 removal.




Many thanks to ADR UK for partnering with us to deliver these #pint25 events which show the importance of data! 19/05 Edinburgh: pintofscience.co.uk/event/diving-i… 19/05 Belfast: pintofscience.co.uk/event/don't-tr… 19/05 Cardiff: pintofscience.co.uk/event/what-cli… 20/05 London: pintofscience.co.uk/event/shaping-…

Excited to be organizing an RNA Symposium Kraków! We've got a fantastic lineup of speakers from academia & industry M. Carmo-Fonseca J.Kjems Willeke van Roon Maciej Ciesla Tomasz W. Turowski Jacek Jemielity Heng-Chang Chen monika piwecka A.Fiszer Molecure Christine Mordstein @Centillion



It was a pleasure hosting and catching up with Evan Healy at the UCD Conway Institute yesterday and hear all about his new work on PRC2, iPSCs and RNA!

Check out this 🧵from Eimear Lagan on our new Molecular Cell paper! We show how the H3K27M Oncohistone reprograms chromatin in DMG, creating a specific dependency on CBX4/PCGF4-containing forms of cPRC1 👇
