Please RP! Excited to share our new preprint: “Single-cell chromatin tracing reveals multimodal molecular programs during memory formation” We built a single-cell multiomic atlas of aversive learning and used it to trace memory-linked molecular programs. doi.org/10.64898/202...

Very excited to share our newest findings! A very long team effort pursued by multiple team members -to frantically reproduce everything over and over-, we show mTOR-Polycomb synergy at promoters of developmental master regulator TFs in ESCs prior to their expression. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Reminder: PhD position in my lab is open for two more weeks. How do germ cells use their own private transcription factors? Come help us find out. Fully funded. Deadline May 1. Flyer attached — please boost! 🙏
Flyer for a PhD position in the Andersen Lab on Genetic Innovation at Aarhus University, Denmark. Title: "Transcriptional regulation in Drosophila germline development." Start date between August 2026 and January 2027, application deadline May 1, 2026. The flyer describes a project on germline-specific transcription factor paralogs, funded by the Novo Nordisk Foundation (PARAGLIDE programme). Includes example data figures: genomics browser tracks, a proximity-labeling proteomics volcano plot, and fluorescence microscopy of germline tissue. Contact: pra@mbg.au.dk. Apply via phd.nat.au.dk.

We wrote a protocol article detailing induction of dormancy in stem cells, embryos, and blastoids. We hope that it is useful to the community. As usual fun to work with @nicolasrivron.bsky.social, Heidar and Dhanur.

⚠️ I am really excited to share the work of Anastasios Balaskas, an excellent PhD candidate in the lab, with the wider world. Tasos made a significant advance: generating a stem cell-based embryo model that contains both posterior and anterior neural tissues of the late-stage gastrulating embryo.
