We are excited to announce the virtual 'Gene regulation and Epigenetics conference for early career scientists'. We are hosting this conference as part of @qmulepigenetics, supported by Dovetail Genomics! (1/n)


🚨We are delighted to announce our keynote speakers for the Gene regulation & Epigenetics conference for Early career researchers. Joanna W Jachowicz and @hamish_king are both ECR's due to start their own labs in 2022 who will discuss their work in the field! 🧬 please #RT ♻️


We are thrilled to announce that registration for the VIRTUAL Gene regulation and Epigenetics conference for Early career scientists is now live and is FREE for all. Register here: whova.com/portal/registr… #GREECS2022 @qmulepigenetics Dovetail Genomics PLEASE RT♻️


Congratulations to our Engagement Award winner Marlena Mucha for her participation in #GREECS2022. Not only she presented a fantastic poster, but remained engaged throughout the whole event! Thanks so much for your involvement, Marlena, and everyone else who joined us!! 👏👏👏👏

We are delighted with the new funding email from Medical Research Council. Thanks to the postdoc's in the lab for generating pilot data, and friends/colleagues for helping me with this grant. Lots of exciting science ahead of us


Check out our preprint on "PSIP1/LEDGF reduces #Rloops at transcription sites to maintain genome integrity" led by Jayakumar Sundarraj with help from Manthan Tummala H, Dr Greg Brooke funding Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Blizard Institute Barts and The London, Queen Mary biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Feedback pl🙏


Please get in touch if you are looking to apply for this highly generous and prestigious #MSCA fellowship. Recently, Jayakumar Sundarraj, an MSCA fellow in my lab completed a fantastic project. Looking for a candidate for this year's round.

Check out this brand new work on the role of #H4K16ac in activating transposable elements, and making them function as #enhancers nature.com/articles/s4159… Funded by MRC UK Research and Innovation and Barts Charity 1/3

Pleased to share our published work nature.com/articles/s4146… We show how PSIP1/LEDGF maintains genome stability by reducing R-loops & DNA damage during transcription. Grateful to Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions for funding Jayakumar Sundarraj to join my lab from Bhabha Atomic Research Centre
