It highlights the fantastic new work from the @mareikealbert.bsky.social lab.

Unlocking the epigenome: Single-cell histone profiling in cortical development

Ditzer et al. used single-cell cytometry by time-of-flight-based method for epigenetic analysis to profile histone modifications in the primary human …

How do epigenetic modifications contribute to human #neocortex #development? Excited to see our work out in #Neuron. We applied Epi-CyTOF and identified a novel role for PRC2 in regulating #ECM.

Chromatin landscape at cis-regulatory elements orchestrates cell fate decisions in early embryogenesis - Nature Communications

Germ layer specification during zygotic genome activation is regulated by chromatin state. Here, the authors use single-cell multiome profiling in Drosophila to show that H3K27me3 and H3K27ac at cis-r...
