🚨Preprint alert! STRAIGHT-IN Dual allows the generation of homogenous genetically-modified hiPSCs β–ͺ️ Done in 1 week with ~100% efficiency β–ͺ️ Markerless and near-scarless approach performed in >10days in a single-well β–ͺ️ Carrying not one but two (single-copy) payloads See🧡below!
So you want to engineer your hiPSCs, but targeting DNA payloads requires multiple slow, inefficient steps for each construct. What if we could accomplish multi-site integration seamlessly? 🚨Introducing STRAIGHT-IN Dual! 🧡 (1/n) Link: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

What characteristics should an MPS have to be useful for modeling human phenotypes? In this review, we (mainly @dennisnahon & @MoerkensRenee) created a reference for quantifiable 'design' and 'emerging' MPS features to compare to real human settings. nature.com/articles/s41551-0…
