Most people have never heard of cholangiocarcinoma, yet it’s the 2nd most common liver cancer. Awareness isn’t just important, it’s life-changing. Knowledge leads to early detection, research, and hope. Let’s make CCA known. Join us for #WorldCCADay tomorrow, February 19. 🌍
Very cool. This has got to be the simplest Figure 1 a Nature paper has seen since 1991.

I just described one of my aims as being "functional with translational undercurrents" in a grant that I'm writing, as if I were describing a fine wine, and for this sole reason I already consider this application to be successful.

RNA is far more than a messenger.
Its structures regulate, evolve, and catalyze — carrying out functions DNA alone cannot.
But predicting #RNA structure from sequence is still extremely difficult.
In our recently published paper in @narjournal.bsky.social we present a way forward.

New paper:
More than 2700 human 3′UTRs are highly conserved. These 3′UTRs are essential components in mRNA templates, as their deletion decreases protein activity without changing protein abundance. Highly conserved 3′UTRs help the folding of proteins with long IDRs.

deposition occur earlier than, or at least partially decoupled from, the bulk of splicing in thousands of genes

Rare personal post to express how grateful I am for my collaborators and colleagues, for all the people around me willing to help, and how lucky I am to have this job.
Special thanks to Dr. Alexis Gonneaud and Dr. Jean-Philippe Babeu for their help and enthusiasm getting this project started.
Thank you @c17council.bsky.social, Childhood Cancer Canada and Sarcoma Research Canada for funding our project aiming to develop targeted immunotherapy for children with high-risk sarcoma.
Very excited to team up with Dr. Stéphanie Vairy to push this research forward!
