Book cover by Simon Kirby

Delighted to announce the publication of a collaborative effort, co-led by @limorraviv.bsky.social @mpi-nl.bsky.social, showcasing the ways in which researchers have made language evolution an empirical issue: A handbook of experimental approaches to the fascinating problem of language evolution 🧪

If you are interested in a postdoc position on neural organoids in the lovely city of Ghent, Belgium, and happen to be at #eshg25, feel free to come and have a chat with me. Or, if you know other interested people, feel free to share with them.

Excellent talk by my colleague @elfridedebaere.bsky.social on cis regulatory elements in eye diseases at #eshg25. If you did not attend her session, I highly recommend to watch it on the virtual platform. Enhanceropathies research at Ghent University is on 🔥

@lisahamerlinck.bsky.social kicking ass at #eshg2025

Sharing work on non-coding regulatory disruptions of FOXG1.

On my way to #eshg25!
If you are interested in the work we do at the FunGen lab, check out the flash talk on Sunday and poster on Monday by @lisahamerlinck.bsky.social or come and have a coffee with team members @michael-b-vaughan.bsky.social, @eedhaene.bsky.social or me. Hope to see you there!

Really enjoying Neurogenomics25 @humantechnopole.bsky.social Excellent space, excellent talks, excellent coffee!

I'll be sharing some of our research ( @svergult.bsky.social ) on the ability of Clinically Accessible Tissues to accurately reflect neuronal gene regulation ( poster #66) #neurogen25

Looking forward to exciting science and to connect with colleagues in Milan at the Neurogenomics conference @humantechnopole.bsky.social Presenting our research ( @svergult.bsky.social @lisahamerlinck.bsky.social ) on noncoding variants in the FOXG1 locus during the poster session (#88) #neurogen25

If you are at the Neurogenomics conference in Milan, go and check out the posters of @eedhaene.bsky.social and @michael-b-vaughan.bsky.social. #neurogen25

📣 New preprint from the FunGen lab, see below 👇👇👇! This research was led by two incredible ladies in my lab, postdoctoral researcher @eedhaene.bsky.social and PhD student Lisa Hamerlinck. Nice to see how a team effort of years finally came together. If you want to know more, read Eva's 🧵 below.

📢 New preprint from the FunGen lab @svergult.bsky.social on how non-coding structural variants disrupt FOXG1 regulation during early neurodevelopment. Great teamwork from Lisa Hamerlinck and everyone in the lab! Thread below👇

Bluesky, I want to share with you one of my favourite papers:

Bluesky transfer made. Best place to find interesting articles is a repost. I'm a postdoc in the Functional Genomics Lab (fungenlab-ugent.be) at Ghent University (BE).
