Using cutting-edge technologies like CAGE (Cap Analysis of Gene Expression) and AI-driven algorithms, we aim to develop tools to explore promoter architecture & identify novel antitumor targets.

Finally, as a new member of the @embo.org YIP, it was an excellent opportunity to meet fellow EMBO YIP members and network with my peers through excellent science at the #EMBO YIP Annual Meeting in Heidelberg. I am looking forward to exciting new collaborations

Then, at the Origin of Metazoans in @sbroscoff.bsky.social I presented the promoter features of a Metazoan relative, Creolimax fragrantissima. The result of collaboration with @alexdemendoza.bsky.social, @borislenhard.bsky.social and @bzunar.bsky.social

It all started with the legendary #TCTeAC where I presented how we rediscovered TATA box using AI!
