Do you have ambitious plans to study the molecular mechanisms of environmental adaptation in mammalian model systems? Join EMBL Rome as an independent group leader: generous core funding & benefits, top-level students & core facilities. embl.wd103.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/EMBL/d...

I want to provide an overview and perspective of rare disease genomic testing, which is a real success story of science impacting health - a science which goes back over 100 years and yet is still striding forward and much more to come.

One of my illustrations made an appearance at the MPI #epigenetics conference! thanks to the boss @jamiehackett.bsky.social presenting the cool science we do in the lab 🔥

At its six sites EMBL’s many groups and teams work across the life sciences in interdisciplinary and collaborative ways.

Meet and join this community on Bluesky, with this EMBL starter pack 🦋

We are recruiting new PhD student for an exciting project working in aerosol science at the interface of pollution monitoring and health impacts in ‘Exploring the size-resolved toxicological properties of aerosols’ do share and apply- details here: 🧪 www.aerosol-cdt.ac.uk/2025-projects/

Fantastically engaging talk on #microbiome -brain axis from @jfcryan.bsky.social in Rome this morning.

Full of thought-provoking ideas and some sage advice:

“If you’re thinking of having a midlife crises… forget about the motorbikes and think about leeks instead” 😂
