Excited to share a new call for papers from Genome Research on somatic mosaicism. If you're working on something exciting in this area, consider submitting your work! The deadline is September 15, 2025. Looking forward to seeing your great science featured there.
In this article, we identified novel mosaic variants in FCD III-associated patients’ brain lesions on genes including CNTNAP2, ACY1, SERAC1, and BRAF. Wonderful collaboration with Camila and Dr. Machado, great job, Muhammad! mdpi.com/3249862 #mdpigenes via @Genes_MDPI
We now released DeepMosaic v1.1.4 with a docker container, bugs fixed, and manuals updated. Great job from Sang and all our collaborators, please find details on GitHub github.com/shishenyxx/Dee…
In this review mdpi.com/2073-4425/16/2…, Caroline, @BreussLab, and Colleagues gave a perspective review of mosaicism in short tandem repeat disorders. We are still calling for manuscripts mdpi.com/journal/genes/…
DeepMosaic v1.1.3 is released! In this version, we fixed bugs and added features suggested by users, with direct cram support and training scripts for all models. Thx Sang for the great job! github.com/shishenyxx/Dee…
Science’s 2024 Breakthrough of the Year is lenacapavir, an injectable drug that demonstrated remarkable success at preventing HIV infection with one shot every 6 months. Learn more about this year's #BOTY and other big advances in science: scim.ag/3Bd6ibq
We are looking for a postdoctoral fellow to join us to study somatosensation development and function! I’m committed to the training and success of my trainees. Please help me spread the words!
