Excited to share our new review discussing potential of targeting isoforms as a new route to drugs with greater specificity and fewer adverse effects! nature.com/articles/s4157… Published in @NatRevDrugDisc Congrats @kjer_peter @GarvanInstitute @UNSWBABS @EMBLAustralia

@TheCoxLab and @Coon_Labs scientists succeeded in developing a new method to generate a more detailed #proteome than ever before, providing insights into how #GeneticVariants and #SpliceVariants in humans impact the proteome. Published in @NatureBiotech nature.com/articles/s4158…

The last part of my PhD research 🤓 is out!! If you are interested in RNA Biology -> Alternative Splicing and Epitranscriptomics + Evolution go have a look! A thread 🧵

I found this review on protein isoforms, derived from alternative splicing, very interesting 👉most genes produce multiple protein isoforms🧬🔄 👉isoforms can be tissue-/disease-specific 👉potential for therapeutic modulation or for biomarker discovery nature.com/articles/s4157…

Protein isoform-centric therapeutics: expanding targets and increasing specificity tinyurl.com/2v5c3us8 Many genes encode multiple protein isoforms. This new review discusses targeting isoforms as a route to drugs with greater specificity and fewer adverse effects

Job Alert! Postdoc position is available in the Weatheritt lab in Sydney. An initial 2-year position working on RNA processing in early development. Work is in collaboration with Vi Wickramasinghe's lab at Peter Mac. Email me at [email protected] if interested.

Congratulations to Winton and Savannah, both from @UNSWScience, the two winners of our giveaway at the Sine-Dalgarno symposium this week at @JCSMR! Thanks to everyone who stopped by to chat with @SelvaKu55508618 and I this week! @Neuro_RNA

Incredibly grateful to the Sylvia and Charles Viertel Charitable Foundation for awarding me this prestigious fellowship. Huge thanks to everyone in my lab for their amazing work! @GarvanInstitute @EMBLAustralia @UNSWBABS eqt.com.au/about-us/media…
