Due to the coronavirus pandemic Oxford Nanopore Technology held their annual London Calling this year online. Kim, Mattias, Greet and Bram attended the whole meeting. There was a training session about 'how to load a flongle', therefore the company shipped a demo kit so Bram could learn about the flongle.  From 6-9 june the annual European Society of Human Genetics were held online, Kim attended for our lab and had a poster presentation.
 Lynn got a certificate for the interuniversity postgraduate course in Human Genetics organised by the Belgian Society of Human Genetics (BeSHG). Congratulations!
On monday 22/06 Jeroen will submit his doctorate!

In season 3 episode 12 of the popular American TV-show 'The Good Doctor' zebrafish were used!
The team did research on zebrafish to solve a special patient case. Not everything in the show is realistic, but it gives a nice representation about the work that we are doing in our lab.

Mattias gave an oral presentation at the first European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Breast Cancer meeting in Berlin, Germany on May 4th. The presentation was titled miRNA expression profiles in BRCA1-associated breast cancers reveal upregulation of specific miRNAs in tumors lacking a clear second hit in a large portion of the tumor.
