It’s finally out!! Our work about chromosomal instability in cancer is now out at Nature. Have a look at our Tweetorial if you are interested to learn more. Congratulations and thank you to everyone involved!! It was a wild ride.
Chromosomal INstability causes chaotic cancer genomes. Making sense of this chaos was hard. Come sit around the fire and listen to our tale of The #17DeadlyCINs a gripping epic of mechanisms of CIN, therapy response prediction and drug target discovery

Geoff is a great mentor and scientist. A fantastic opportunity!
Fancy doing a postdoc in computational oncology? Then come join the lab! Computational postdoc position in the Macintyre lab @CNIOStopCancer is open now. Come help us tackle chromosomal instability using single cell DNA sequencing and CIN signatures. cnio.es/en/empleo/postdoctor…

By leveraging @nanopore sequencing, postdoctoral researcher @Carolinmsa and colleagues are developing new methods for early cancer detection.
Find out how combining these new technologies with liquid biopsies is helping to create less invasive procedures.

The wonders of population genetics allow us to reveal the echoes of the tumultuous times our ancestors survived, forever imprinted in our genome. In this thread, I'll share my experience replicating one of my all-time favourite papers by @lh3lh3 and @richard_durbin
Developments in AI have been already mind blowing this year and ChatGPT is taking the crown for language models (for now at least). I am amazed. This is beyond incredible.
I used some of these sentences verbatim in scientific outreach events to each of these groups.
I can't seem to stop now. Have a look at what ChatGPT tells me about TP53 and BRCA1. This is more succinct than any academic paper, faster and easier to understand than any lecture.
The consequences are far reaching. Learning, writing, research...
What an excellent example of science communication, data visualisation and argumentation. The thread is brief, easy to follow and to the point. One of my favourites this year!! 👏🏻👏🏻
Next level genetics: study human knockouts because many adults are related to each other and therefore significantly raise the chance of a defunct gene in their children.
Congratulations Carolin and team!!
Very pleased to see the preprint of my main PhD project out on @bioRxiv! Big thank you to all collaborators and the fantastically clever centrosome and cancer genomics people who have shared their knowledge & advice with me over the last 4 years! @CRUK_CI

The NHS is in great peril
The cost of living crisis will exacerbate this and needs action quickly, but we must not forget that the NHS needs urgent attention too
I'm not sure people know quite how bad it is, so here's a 🧵on NHS Key Performance Indicators
Please share widely.
When genetics meets history meets today’s politics. Have a look at this fascinating and dark story about racism in medieval Europe!
Have a look at Marzia's incredible sci-art! It was truly a lot of fun to work with her on the stained glass artwork.
It's #sciartportfolioweek so here's three of my favourite #SciArt pieces from this year! 💫
If you wanna work together to bring your own science to life with some creative visuals ➡️➡️ drop me a line at [email protected]!

It is a gentle introduction to cancer biology, chromosomal instability and our recently published research with scientists from the @CRUK_CI @CNIOStopCancer @TheCrick.
