🚨Moving from Cambridge to Oxford!
After my PhD at the Wellcome Sanger Institute and @mgarnett.bsky.social lab, I’m leaving Cambridge -my second home- to start as a Postdoc at Oxford-WIMM in Sumana Sharma’s group! Grateful for the journey so far and excited for what’s ahead! 🎉

@traver.bsky.social thank you!!

BEstimate enables the identification of gRNAs, generating variants on reference and mutant sequences, correcting pathogenic variants for therapeutic development, and extensive annotation of the base editing libraries for pre- and post-experiment interpretation.

In this preprint, we highlighted its utility in different cases:
🧬 Design gRNA libraries for reference and cell line-specific sequences, leveraging SNP-aware mode
🩸 Identify gRNAs that revert pathogenic variants
🔍 Comprehensively annotate a MYC base editing screen

With BEstimate you can:
✅ Fully customise Cas enzymes, base editors & PAMs
✅ Design libraries for reference or mutated sequences
✅ Find gRNAs reverting the alterations
✅ Annotate functional, structural & clinical impacts
✅ Retrieve real-time data via Ensembl & UniProt APIs

🚨 Excited to share our latest preprint!
@mgarnett.bsky.social @mattcoelho.bsky.social
We introduce BEstimate, a flexible, comprehensive tool for designing and interpreting CRISPR-based editing experiments.

Huge thanks to Downing College and the fantastic organising committee for putting together such a thoughtful and stimulating event. I’m honoured by the recognition and thankful for the opportunity to present my research!

I'm incredibly grateful to have been selected as one of the best talks at the Downing College Postgraduate Conference 2025, an honour I shared with brilliant Ms Herrick-Doyle, from Oxford, Lincoln College, whose presentation was truly inspiring.

Thanks Jacob!

I’d like to share my gratitude for my examiners @ciccarellilab.bsky.social and Oscar Rueda for making my viva such an informative and intellectually stimulative discussion.

Glad to share one of the happiest moment in my life. I’d like to thank my dear supervisor @mgarnett.bsky.social for his incredible support, encouragement and guidance, and all the Garnett team for their friendship. I am extremely grateful for this remarkable journey 🥂
