Dear Berlin!

#spine

Lab move day I take-home message: move your lab every few years to rediscover all the hidden treasures and (try to) get reagents under control. New neighbors @matthewkraushar.bsky.social can only mean new collaborations. On government-supported grants! (US colleagues hang in there)

Very happy to receive additional ERC support to identify more and new dormancy regulators. Let’s go!

Happy 2025 everyone! Last year was a very eventful year for our lab, with 3 graduations, 1 baby, multiple publications, many interactions, seminars and conferences. We are joined by 3 new lab members in January. Senior members are moving to new positions. This is the year the lab truly becomes 2.0.

What’s better than a Christmas experiment is to find the precious material with a precious note 😊

Our lab members are off to cool new jobs (including faculty 🎉) so we are looking for new team members. Experimental postdoc prioritized, but do get in touch if you think you are a good fit. Also, our PhD program is currently accepting applications: www.molgen.mpg.de/IMPRS/applic...

Now I feel better about constantly fretting about comparing and cross-checking multiple atlases, to the dismay of my students and the CPUs.

Both ERC Consolidator and EMBO YIP announced today, so many colleagues to cheer for! Congrats

Postdoc positions in epigenetics! We have several opportunities to investigate big picture questions on (epi)genome function & mechanisms Based @embl.org near Rome (Italy), we offer full scientific support/facilities, training & funding. Also...☀️🏛️🍕🏖️ See👇or contact me for other options. Pls RS

Happy to share our first #bluetorial & our latest #preprint, lead by postdoc @paulchammas.bsky.social. We used CRISPRa to disentangle the close relationship between Dux and MERVL elements in the induction of the 2-cell like state: #TEsky #MERVL www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... (1/8)

Join this powerhouse!

Did the pre-Christmas submission craze begin already? I'm getting so many review requests.

I didn’t realize before that we got the cover! What a nice surprise today.

I've been meaning to write a lengthy thread about our experiences with DNA methylation editing in mouse ESCs if that would be useful (or interesting?) for a niche audience here. tl;dr: it was frustrating but we learned a lot, and it ended with our shiny new pub (1/17) www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Re-searching science fun here! Ping me so I can follow you.
