A paper in Nature Genetics reports on a single-cell RNA sequencing analysis of over 800,000 human adult breast cells, which identifies 41 cell subtypes and highlights age- and parity-dependent effects. go.nature.com/49r4ir1
Thank you The Naked Scientists for the opportunity to talk about our work! Have a listen to what Austin Reed and I have to say about it! Walid Khaled thenakedscientists.com/articles/inter…
Our paper on fast #coclustering is now in the April's issue of the Machine Learning Journal (@[email protected]). You can try the new (and even faster) #python implementation available on GitHub (github.com/rupensa/tauCC/…) DiUniTo Fondazione CRT hpc4ai #AI

Listen to our amazing boss Walid Khaled brilliantly explaining our latest research and future directions, and what implications it could have for BRCA1 and BRCA2 carriers. On BBC R4!
New discovery! Existing drugs could be used to prevent #BreastCancer instead of surgery.
When looking at healthy carriers of BRCA mutations, Sara Pensa Austin Reed and Walid Khaled Walid Khaled found cells normally only seen in late-stage tumours. Read on bit.ly/3VzuVXp
Looking for a long read over the long bank holiday? 📚
Walid Khaled and their collaborators have published a completed version of their Human Breast Cell Atlas in Nature Genetics!

Amazing to finally meet Majeedah Afolabi-Balogun in person after years of online collaboration! Thanks to Cambridge-Africa and TReND in Africa, we’ll be working together to build capacity for the early diagnosis of Cervical Cancer in Nigeria! Dept. of Pharmacology, Univ. Cambridge
To celebrate #BlackHistoryMonth , we are hosting Apeike Umolu, of the African History Project project at the Department!
She will be giving a talk on 'The Interesting Life of Africanus Horton: A Man of Science and of Letters' 📚
