Our breast cancer proliferation Cas13d knockdown screen for genetically supported lncRNAs is finally published in Molecular Cancer @BioMedCentral rdcu.be/dIpgT. We show that BC GWAS variants act by reducing the half-life of novel DNA replication and repair lncRNA KILR.

Very happy to share our work of love and a brain child, stLearn. We show 1) ability to predict progression trajectories of diseases and development across a tissue, and 2) accurate mapping of spatial interactions, overcoming constraints in scRNAseq data nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

New preprint from our lab! @LuWang51536623 @BitarMaina CRISPR-Cas13d screens identify KILR a breast cancer risk-associated lncRNA that regulates DNA replication and repair. Another great collaboration with @Edwards_Stace ! @lncRNA_papers @GWAS_lit biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have surpassed the number of protein-coding genes, yet the majority have no known function. We previously discovered >800 lncRNAs at regions identified by breast cancer...

Replying to @ProfJohnHooper
@ProfJohnHooper has received a $100k @tourdecure_aus grant to research a fluorescent contrast agent which will potentially help surgeons better detect & excise ovarian cancers. Join Mater's fight this #OvarianCancerAwarenessMonth to BEAT ovarian cancer: mater.li/ovarian-cancer

Redefining normal breast cell populations using long noncoding RNAs

Single-cell RNAseq has allowed unprecedented insight into gene expression across different cell populations in normal tissue and disease states. However, almost all studies rely on annotated gene...

Kara's research project will uncover the role of immune cells, especially macrophages, in the earliest stages of breast cancer initiation and determine whether targeting these cells can prevent the onset of breast cancer. Read more: url.nbcf.org.au/immune #research #breastcancer
