Very excited to be involved with this new consortium as a member of the DACC! Interested in working with us? Computational staff & post-doc positions are available! Reach out for more details.
.@Genome_gov is awarding 50.3 million for “multi-omics” research on human health and disease. Multi-omics is a research approach that incorporates different “omics” data such as genomics, epigenomics, transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics. genome.gov/news/multi-omics

If you're at @HarvardPqg today, and want to know how you can use a KG to integrate all the omics (all TF-ChIP, RNA, ATAC, and Histone-ChIP) together, come visit our poster from @UMassGCB

What a wake-up call! UMass Chan congratulates Victor R. Ambros, PhD, the Silverman Chair in Natural Sciences and professor of molecular medicine at @UMassChan, co-winner of the 2024 @NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine for the discovery of microRNA: direc.to/mmHu
Congratulations to our 2024 medicine laureate Victor Ambros ✨
This morning he celebrated the news of his prize with his colleague and wife Rosalind Lee, who was also the first author on the 1993 'Cell' paper cited by the Nobel Committee.

US citizens or permanent residents from an under-represented group! High school thru postdoc/faculty.
You can contact any NIH-funded researcher you admire & suggest applying for this supplement to join their lab! Many, like me, are happy to host!

A team co-led by Elinor Karlsson, PhD, is showing how much we can learn from studying the genomes of mammals. Read about the 13 studies published in @ScienceMagazine that help scientists better understand health and disease: direc.to/jmQ6 @eenork @KltLab @broadinstitute

Congratulations @Kaili_Fan on your successful PhD defense! We're so proud of you and we can't wait to see what you do in the future! @UMassChan @ZhipingWeng
The @UmassMedbioinfo program @UMassChan
is recruiting tenure-track faculty! A fantastic place to work on cutting edge science with supportive colleagues and dedicated students: academicjobsonline.org/ajo/j…
Excited to announce that today is my first day as an Assistant Professor @UMassChan in @UmassMedbioinfo and @RTI_UMassChan. The Moore Lab is officially open! moore-lab.org 1/4
Additionally, many thanks to my colleagues in @umassmed_zlab and many collaborators (@mooreorless62, @xue_lab, @ENCODE_NIH, just to name a few!) for their encouragement and support over the years. 3/4
Finally, The Moore Lab is hiring! We are looking for bioinformaticians and post-docs interesting in studying gene regulation using multi-omic data and machine learning. See ummsjobs.com/job/8044/ and ummsjobs.com/job/8047/ for more details. 4/4

Excited to announce that we are holding a Machine Learning competition with @DR_E_A_M: predicting gene expression from DNA sequence using >6,000,000 random yeast promoters as training data. More info available on the competition website:

Our work on cataloging experimentally derived TSSs is now out in @genomeresearch! genome.cshlp.org/content/32/… A collaborative effort by @umassmed_zlab @ZhipingWeng @Kaili_Fan @hpratt111 @kepbod @calizavi @FairlieReese (1/5)
This enabled us to annotate >17k new TSSs for @GencodeGenes annotated genes and >4k TSSs for novel transcripts. These new TSSs were often cell type-specific and aided in annotating disease-associated variants (4/5)
If you work in one of the 100+ assayed tissue or cell types, you can supplement your gene annotations with our catalog to aid in genome annotation and interpretation: github.com/weng-lab/RAMPAGE-… (5/5)
