Great thread from LJI Prof. Bjoern Peters (@bpeters) on the importance of #WhoopingCough research — and new approaches to #vaccine design 👇
Whooping Cough Cases Are Surging in the U.S. Cases in 2024 are 5x higher than last year, underscoring the need for ongoing pertussis research and stronger prevention efforts. https://t.co/T9OUXqpxAv (1/5)

After many zoom meetings, discussions & learning from one another about different ways to look at the same data/problem, our perspective article on regulatory genomics is out. We have a “hallmarks of gene regulation” figure which i am planning to use in my talks. Enjoy reading!
Delighted to have worked on this perspective on the cis-regulatory code with @JuliaZeitlinger, @JasonErnstLab, @ferhatay, @AMathelier, @AleMedinaRivera, @mahonylab, @sinhasaur
https://t.co/fA8KHcp8Sy. We provide an overview of current progress and some challenges to think about.
