The Genetics Society was founded by William Bateson & Edith Rebecca Saunders in 1919 & is one of the oldest learned societies devoted to Genetics in the world.
@popgenviennaphd.bsky.socialReposted by @gensocuk.bsky.socialHoward Rundle is speaking tomorrow about "The population genetic consequences of mate competition: Empirical insights from Drosophila".
Our PhD students are excited to meet him!

@heredityjournal.bsky.socialReposted by @gensocuk.bsky.social🎧 📻 🎙️
🔎 Turning the lens on the history of genetics itself, we discuss an article examining its historical relationship with the eugenics movement, which promoted the since discredited idea that genetic improvement techniques could and should be applied to human populations.
@gensocuk.bsky.socialThank you for spotting, have asked for this to be corrected.
@gensocuk.bsky.socialJoin us next April in London for our Life in Motion - Cell, Genes and Beyond conference, jointly with the @bscb-official.bsky.social. We've an amazing line up of speakers!

@rberrens.bsky.socialReposted by @gensocuk.bsky.socialVery proud of Chuzhi from the lab who presented his first poster at a national meeting and won a poster price at the @gensocuk.bsky.social RNA in physiology and disease meeting!
@jenningslab.bsky.socialReposted by @gensocuk.bsky.socialA big thank you to the organisers for a brilliant conference! @gensocuk.bsky.social
@gensocuk.bsky.socialEmilie Alard talking on how a pre-rRNA positive feedback loop drives malignant ribosome biogenesis
@gensocuk.bsky.socialNext up is Chuan He talking about RNA-guided chromatin regulation in disease: from molecular mechanisms to therapeutic targeting
@gensocuk.bsky.socialJernej Ule starts the last session of our conference talking about Protein-RNA feedback loops and their roles in cellular homeostasis
@gensocuk.bsky.socialNext we heard how GNG12-AS1 lncRNA acts as a key regulator of a non-canonical imprint maintenance center at the DIRAS3 locus by Giuseppina Pisignano
@gensocuk.bsky.socialMarie Hautin-Ropert talked about how YTHDF3 is a selective dependency in AML with dual mA-dependent and -independent functions
