Today in @Nature we share our back-to-back stories with @nzhenguw revealing chemical-genetic convergence between a molecular glue & E3 ligase cancer mutations. 1/6
I discuss the urgent crisis from the loss of federal support of science in the US and recent clinical gene editing breakthroughs with @WalterIsaacson & @amanpour on @AmanpourCoPBS, airing on @PBS tonight at 11 pm ET, and on @cnni earlier today. Pls share! youtube.com/watch?v=8YhJM6…
I was happy to write a @Nature News and Views on the amazing discoveries by @brian_b_liau & Ning Zheng lab on how a molecular glue unexpectedly mimics the effect of cancer mutations. Such cool science and with implications to drug discovery. @NatureNV nature.com/articles/d4158…
Super excited to share our new study from the @JD_Buenrostro Lab in @Nature! We developed a computational method for tracking transcription factor and nucleosome binding using single-cell ATAC-seq and deep learning. Paper: nature.com/articles/s4158…
