Two new PhD students started: 👋Welcome Sebastian and Lara! We introduced them to Flemish science communication by taking them to the English version of Lieven Scheires A.I. show 🙂🤖

Finally after all that hard work, here we have it! It is an incredible feeling to see all ZFHX3 LoF variants and functional work published, thank you to all our collaborators and my promotors Bert Callewaert and Sarah Vergult for all the support👩‍🔬👏

Working in Ghent, also means (Fun)Gentse Feesten 🥳! A little bit of 🌧️ does not stop us 💪 #TeamFunGen

Proud of Rocío Pérez Baca for doing a great job during her talk on our collaborative work on ZFHX4, co-led by María Palomares FunGen Lab @ UGent Bert Callewaert #ASHG24

Bye bye Denver! We had a great #ASHG24 meeting! So happy to meet up in person with old and new faces 🥰! And of course we mixed science a bit with other fun stuff: 🥳 and 🏀 - Go Denver Nuggets 💪🏼! FunGen Lab @ UGent Rocío Pérez Baca Elfride De Baere

What a conference! I had an amazing time and it was great to reconnect with the scientific community 👩‍🔬 such fun👏
