Assistant Professor at the Center for Medical Genetics Ghent, Ghent University - elucidating the genetics of rare diseases. Mom of two. Go and follow @FunGenLab
Joined November 2018
Unfortunately @colombolara_ could not present herself as she is following an exciting π»course in Milan, but @hamerlinck_lisa, @GenbruggeLukas, @Norevanloon, @eva_dhaene and I represented the @FunGenLab during this interesting meeting. I will also attend the final day tomorrow!
Yesterday, the FunGen lab was present @ the Marguerite-Marie Delacroix's Conference on "Current Directions in Autism Research and NDDs". @Norevanloon rocked her poster presentation concerning organoids & @eva_dhaene gave an excellent talk on @colombolara_ her 3D genome research.

Wauw, amazing work!
It took more than a DECADE... but finally itβs published!!! It started as a CRAZY idea but after tons of hard work we built it: We hijacked the endogenous secretion systems of Toxoplasma gondii, a brain parasite, to deliver active proteins to neurons π

πToday @KeithSiew gave an excellent talk on his recent @NatureComms paper on the effects of spaceflight on kidneys π. He got the @FunGenLab team (even more) excited about space research ππ§¬π. Thanks a lot @MichaelBVaughan for inviting him and arranging all the logistics!
π @KeithSiew took us to outer space this morning with a great seminar about the effects of spaceflight on the kidney. Cosmic kidney disease is a thing! Thanks for hosting @MichaelBVaughan and @SVergult !
