Lunch break means it’s WntUK poster time!

We have 17 fabulous posters here today covering Wnt signalling across mechanisms, development and disease from all career stages.

Early bird registration discount may have passed but #WNTUK2025 is still open for standard registration and abstract submission. Still plenty of speaker/poster slots available for all career levels and areas of Wnt signalling.

Abstract deadline Feb 1st and we are just over 8 weeks from the big day!

Fabulous work from our colleagues in the Barr lab showing how the CPC binds the nucleosome!

I saw that you're organising it. I was hoping to catch you at the Wnt GRC also in June, but we will be on opposite sides of the pond.

You're right Mark. I was a bit vague and minimalistic. Guess a side effect of my reductionist research approach πŸ˜…. All good over here, just can't believe that another year flew by.
