We are very excited to be hosting the 20th international Xenopus conference this year and are looking forward to seeing all of you lovely frog people. Come to Portsmouth for a week of science, fun and hopefully good weather. Check the EXRC website for more details.

At EXRC we use tadpoles to test links between changes in patients' genomes and disease, e.g. in a newly discovered brain disease These links are essential for supporting patients. #RareDiseaseDay. Look out for new work on PURA coming soon #PURAsyndrome.
