So excited that our paper “De novo variants in the RNU4-2 snRNA cause a frequent neurodevelopmental syndrome” is out today in @Nature nature.com/articles/s41586-0…
🧵 1/16
(1/4) I’m delighted to announce that our research on RNU4-2 is now out on @Nature . This is an exciting finding that will bring many diagnoses worldwide. We have updated some new results since the preprint: nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

ALT "The Francis Crick Institute has quickly established a global reputation for its work at the frontiers of science. I relish the challenge of building on that work. I also want to pay tribute to Sir Paul Nurse, without whom the Francis Crick Institute would not be the world-leading institution it is today." - Edith Heard

Yes, mitochondria can jump from cell to cell🤯
Ever wondered how they do this? And how we might be able to harness this to treat disease?
If so, apply below👇
Deadline in two weeks📅
🚨Job alert!🚨
How do mitochondria shuttle between neurons and astrocytes, and why? We are looking to recruit a postdoc to work on these exciting questions @TheCrick with @MSDintheUK 🧠🔬
Please RT! 🙏
