Cancer epigenetics & the role of Ybx1 in fine tuning PRC2 activity to control embryonic brain development with Dr Myron Evans
Listen now
Description
On this weeks episode we are discussing Cancer and developmental biology in genomics with Dr Myron Evans! Myron is currently a post doctoral research fellow at St Judes Childrens research hospital in Memphis, Tennesse! Myron discusses with us his journey into cancer biology and shares a unique perspective of life working at a research hospital. He tells us all about his work into Ybx1 and how it fine tunes Polycomb repressive complex 2 activity to direct embryonic brain development. Additionally, Myron fills us in on all the cool techniques and methods he has used during his research!  Access Dr.Evans Nature communications paper here: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-020-17878-y Connect with Myron on twitter here: https://twitter.com/myron_evansPhD
