Juan Carlos @juancruedas.bsky.social will defend his PhD, Don't miss his valedictory seminar on 28th Jan 10 am at @cambiochem.bsky.social . He will present his exciting work on how replisome–histone interactions shape chromatin and drive transgenerational epigenetic inheritance. Best of luck!

🧬@juancruedas.bsky.social is in #Heidelberg this week at the EMBL: Chromatin and Epigenetics meeting! Are you interested in how replisome–histone interactions contribute to the transgenerational maintenance of large heterochromatic domains? Go and chat about chromatin, poster 195! #EMBLChromatin

We’re in #Durham, we’re excited, and we’re ready to talk about C. elegans at the #UKwormmeeting! @juancruedas.bsky.social gave an amazing talk today, and several of our team members are presenting posters. Come find us, chat, and let’s geek out over worms together!🔬🧬 #research #conference #Celegans

(1/2) How is epigenetic memory maintained across generations? Our latest study reveals the role of SET-24, a SET domain-containing protein in C. elegans, in preserving germline integrity and small RNA-driven epigenetic silencing. Read more in our new preprint!! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

First #bluetorial. 🎉🎉 We’re very happy to share our latest biorxiv #preprint, just in time before the holiday season. We explored how transposable elements (TEs) diversify eukaryotic proteomes and found a cool case in nematode F-box genes. #TEsky #evosky #Celegans Short 🧵 with highlights.
