Time to stop criminalising the people protesting a genocide - and start ending the UK's complicity.

Neat row of toilets beneath a sign which says 'Cycle storage'.

Funny looking bicycles....?

Loved this talk! I always like a talk that makes me want to go and dig out an old unsolved case...

Should have been waking up in Milan ahead of #ESHG2025. To cut a long story short, I'm not, I'm still here in London.

And I have massive FOMO

Ohhhh this is nice!

Everyday is a #DNAday imho

I saw this out of context and went digging for the abstract. Fascinating!

Read.. remember the scene in #HandmaidsTale where her bank card doesn’t work anymore.. ? This is that scene. This is now.

I am in my 12 year old nephew's single bed for tonight, it has very strong #Spurs vibes which are lost on me #DuvetKnowItsChristmas

Oh this is brilliant. I love a histone pun 🤩

Thanks!

Fir cone wreath with a double helix made from twisted red and gold beads

I found a tree near work which had dropped some interesting fir cones so I persuaded some workmates to collect some with me. Made Christmas wreaths, including this one with a #DNA theme for the #genomics lab door (stupidly I forgot to take a picture of the whole thing so here is a little corner).

This is absolutely horrifying.

Completely agree. I've always had my taskbar at the top (because my cat sleeps on my laptop underneath the monitor and she's furry 🙄). But there's loads of other things that did work well that have regressed with Windows 11. Multiple email signatures. Searching within files for particular thread...

Proportion expressed across transcripts (pext), using GTEx v10, is now available on #gnomAD v4!

But I am going to follow you now because I agree!

Bernie Sanders in mittens reclining in the Houses of Parliament to such an extent that he is almost laid down, much like Rees-Mogg

The original Bernie Sanders in mittens, at the inauguration of Biden, which inspired the meme

I am not looking forward to the inauguration, obviously, BUT Bernie Sanders might put his #mittens on again, and inspire another meme. I would like that

Wow, bluesky is busy today!

Almost one year to the day after I switched from paediatric cancer and started in cardiovascular #genomics at the wonderful Royal Brompton Hopsital, here is my first contribution to the field: genomemedicine.biomedcentral.com/articles/10....
