And that's a wrap on 'Transcription and chromatin'! 🧬✨
A big thank you to everyone who joined us for a few days of great science, inspiring discussions, and plenty of opportunities to connect.
From exciting talks and lively Q&As to fantastic poster sessions, coffee break conversations, and catching up over social events, it was wonderful to see the transcription and chromatin community come together again (it was #EMBLTranscript 17th edition!).
Thank you to all the speakers, poster presenters, and participants for sharing your research, asking questions, exchanging ideas, and making the meeting what it was. The science was impressive, but it was the conversations, connections and community that really brought it to life 🙌🏼
Already looking forward to the next edition! Until then, keep the discussions going 🤓🫶🏼

Just ~1 month until our @KeystoneSymp on Epigenetics and Gene Regulation in Health and Disease! keystonesymposia.org/confere…
@kjarmache and I have tailored this meeting around the unique basic and translational science in our field, addressing both challenges and new opportunities in moving mechanisms to successful drug development. Join us and reach out if you have questions!!

The power of a bipartisan America—that refuses to dismantle science, cares about patients, and understands that medical academic research is also an economic engine. Thank you to the senators who stood up for NIH and the future of American health. science.org/content/article/….

Thanks @jeffmervis @ScienceMagazine for covering the mistreatment of Chinese students and scholars @Yale @JohnsHopkins @Harvard @UVA, and thanks @Yale for your firm support of students. The chilling effects will lead to further loss of our already smaller talent pool! @WHOSTP
