Fantastic news for the lab! We've just been awarded a Wellcome Discovery award and will be recruiting at postdoc and research assistant level shortly. We're excited by this project that aims to understand how metabolism influences male germline development. Please forward to any interested people!

I am very happy (and a bit scared) to present to you what we have been working on over the last 4 years. This manuscript is exactly what I dreamt of when I started the lab and I could not be happier and prouder of the outcome!

Have you ever wondered how chromatin states shape developmental trajectories? In our preprint, we address this question using single-cell nanoCUT&Tag, a method developed by Marek Bartosovic @mardzix.bsky.social, which simultaneously profiles active H3K27ac and repressive H3K27me3 in the same nucleus

It was a fantastic exploration during my PhD, a new method, with new struggles. I had an amazing team of Artem and Aleksander to deal with all of them. Also my first experience of project supervision, it was hard but extremely cool. And thanks to @mardzix.bsky.social and Pepe for all the support!
