Joined September 2021
Our latest paper has just been published in Cell! https://t.co/5iAl1EaGEJ We developed a new method called MCC ultra, which allows 3D chromatin structure to be visualised with a 1 base pair pixel size.

Undoubtedly one of the most exciting and I think, potentially far-ranging technologies we have ever developed. TRANCERs: turn an enhancer into a promoter with the same specificity as the enhancer! A promoter for all occasions!

The process by which a foreign gene is introduced into a cell and translated into a functional protein is referred to as transgene expression. Understanding and optimising transgene expression is...

Buckle up! We're in for a wild ride today. A new @NatMetabolism paper by scientists from China adds a surprising twist to the long-known FTO GWAS story. The FTO locus (16q12.2) is the first ever GWAS locus to be associated with obesity and even after 16 yrs now, scientists

In 2016 I looked after a girl who died during a transplant for HbE beta-thalassaemia. I am overwhelmingly pleased that we have been able to correct HbE with near 100% efficiency using base editors. https://t.co/LIVpGvJPhR Brilliant work from Mohsin Badat @Montytrench @jdavieslab

Excited to present our in-depth protocol for Micro Capture-C, published in @NatureProtocols . This innovative method achieves 3C data generation at base pair resolution level! 🧬🎉 @josephhamley98 @jojdavies @jdavieslab @MRC_WIMM
Really pleased to share the detailed protocol for Micro Capture-C in nature protocols. It is capable of generating 3C data down to base pair resolution. @jdavieslab @hangpengli578 @josephhamley98 @MRC_MHU @MRC_WIMM

Really excited to share our latest paper... fantastic collaboration with @MariekeOudelaar where we developed tiled Micro Capture-C to generate Hi-C like plots at 20bp resolution. Turns out there are nanoscale TADs inside enhancers! https://t.co/hHIWnQFLnM
