Senior Scientist @Regeneron • Previously: Hadjantonakis Lab • @sloan_kettering / @WeillCornellGS • #LGM

Joined April 2010
Excited to share this collaborative work with @Hadhjantonakis and @dana_peer led by @Vid_ur reporting drastically different interconversion efficiencies between ESC and XEN, unique trajectories mimicking in vivo states, and key plasticity barriers. cell.com/developmental-cell/…

🚨 It's finally out!! I'm happy to share our collaborative work from the Hadjantonakis, @efapostolou29 and @dana_peer labs. We wanted to know what makes embryonic/pluripotent cells different from extra-embryonic endoderm cells (1/6) sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

But how does this inform our understanding of lineage specification in the embryo? Turns out the transcriptional changes we detect in vitro also resemble cell states in vivo during EPI/PrE specification (5/6)

Super excited to share the final publication of Spectra, fruit of the wonderful collaboration between @russell_kunes and @science_wallet, a gene program factorization program that I hope will help many interpret and bring insight from their single-cell data -->

Very excited for the first machine learning model from our lab, named 3D-HiChAT developed by @AlexPPolyzos, that enables prediction of 3D complex regulatory relationships, including enhancer hierarchies and 3D hubs that control gene coregulation.

Happy to share our new preprint, @efapostolou29 lab! We mapped 3D Enhancer-Promoter connections in mouse TSC, ESC and XEN Cells, and created a machine-learning model, 3D-HiChAT, that uses 1D and 3D features to predict gene expression, validated by CRISPRi. doi.org/10.1101/2023.07.19.5…

Our latest work on engineering extrachromosomal circular DNAs (ecDNAs) is now available in @biorxiv. In this preprint we describe a novel strategy to engineer the formation of large (>1 Mb), multigenic, amplifications mediated by ecDNAs in cells and mice. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Excited to share initial press release @BlueRockTx on promising results of Phase 1 trial in 12 PD patients bit.ly/3JCKneG. A major milestone on a 20+ year journey. Amazing leadership by @TabarViviane, @MSKCancerCenter & @BlueRockTx (@bigosi, Mark Tomishima & many more).
Data from Ph 1 trial of dopamine neuron grafts in patients with #Parkinsons are very promising: a long standing dream & lots of work;Excited for #Parkinson patients & proud of the team my lab led by JinghuaPiao @studerl lab,@MSKCancerCenter @BlueRockTx

New preprint! We present a pipeline, called scUTRquant, that simultaneously quantifies gene expression and 3′UTRs from scRNA-seq data. Comprehensive annotation of 3′UTRs from primary cells and their quantification from scRNA-seq data biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
