Virtual Lecture Series
‘Recent Advances in Single Cell Omics’:
13. Guest: Wolf Reik (Babraham Institute Cambridge)

We are excited to announce the next speaker in our SCOG Virtual Lecture Series ‘Recent Advances in Single Cell Omics’: Wolf Reik (Babraham Institute Cambridge)

• Title: ‘Single cell multi-omics and spatial transcriptomics of mammalian development’

  Wolf Reik and the Wellcome gastrulation consortium
  Epigenetics Programme, Babraham Institute, Cambridge CB22 3AT
  Centre for Trophoblast Research, University of Cambridge, CB2 3EG
  Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, Cambridge CB10 1SA
  With our collaborators we are interested in the regulation of cell fate decisions in early mammalian development. We are charting mouse and human development using single cell multi-omics approaches. We are interested in epigenetic regulators of early development including factors that control lineage priming. We have recently developed single cell transcriptomics, epigenome triple-omics, and spatial transcriptome atlases of gastrulation and early organogenesis.

Virtual lecture series ‘Recent Advances in Single Cell Omics’

• Biweekly event on Fridays at 9:30 am (CEST)

• 30 min presentation, followed by 15 min discussion / Q&A

Synopsis

The virtual lecture series includes biweekly presentations about current single cell research. In addition to selected presentations by invited guests, we would particularly like to offer SCOG partners a platform to present their work to the network (read below how to apply).

The program will be updated regularly (see schedule below).
