Kyowon has joined our lab and will begin his studies on April 10th!
We had a lovely lab lunch to wish all the best to our PostDoc Kazu! We enjoyed working with you!
WashU and Ding lab crew represented us at the annual HTAN F2F meeting. Dr. Michael Iglesia did a fantastic job presenting for our lab! 3D spatial era is about to begin.
This image depicts how aberrant DNA methylation patterns—represented by the rocks being held by the mischievous children—upset the balance of epigenetic marks in the cell’s DNA, creating a permissive landscape for tumor progression. The ER's ribosomes and Golgi apparatus in the backdrop represent concurrent transcriptional and translational shifts coming from the seesaw's tilt. The emotional response of the kids on the seesaw mirrors the profound impact these epigenetic changes can have on our cells. Designed by Stephish Liu.
Our latest pan-cancer effort in now published in Nature. Enjoy the read. We carried out a massive integrative effort to uncover common and cancer type-specific cis- and trans-epigenetic mechanisms associated with cancer initiation and progression across 11 cancer types. Last two images are cover designs created by Jessica Johnson which unfortunately were not selected but we still love them.
Lab hangout to say Goodbye to Ruiyang and Rita. Wish you two all the fun at your new jobs
