Huge congrats from our whole lab to Sir David Attenborough on his 100th birthday!!! 🎉🥳❤️ I had the honor of meeting him - and being interviewed by him - in 2013 for his BBC documentary "Rise of Animals: Triumph of the Vertebrates", which featured part of our work.

Did transposable elements shape brain evolution — and if so, which ones, and in which cell states and lineages? Led by @tyamadat.bsky.social, we explored this question in cerebellum development using sequence-based deep learning models! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

How does gene regulation shape brain evolution? Our new preprint dives into this question in the context of mammalian cerebellum development! rb.gy/dbcxjz Led by @ioansarr.bsky.social, @marisepp.bsky.social and @tyamadat.bsky.social, in collaboration with @steinaerts.bsky.social
