StarT fellows Munevver Burcu Cicekdal (ESR3), Melita Kaltak (ESR10), Pietro De Angeli (ESR11) and Iris Post (ESR13) recorded video pitches for their outreach activities talking about their research within the StarT consortium. The videos can be viewed below. 
Congratulations to researchers Eugenio Pugni (ESR11) and Fabio Dell'Aquila who received the Travel Grants at the @ESGCT Meeting 2022!  Melita Kaltak (ESR10) presented her latest research on AONs targeting STGD1 at OTSociety 2022 meeting!  Zelia Corradi (ESR5) and Melita Kaltak (ESR10) were awarded for the best presentation by the Paul Holden Foundation handed by Rando Allikmets at the 7th Course in Eye genetics held in Bertinoro, Italy.  Pietro De Angeli (ESR12) designed and implemented three different CRISPR/Cas9 approaches to rescue aberrant splicing induced by an isolated deep-intronic mutation in ABCA4. The paper is finally out! Check it out here. This is just a taste, more is to come! #crispr #Cas9 #genome #editing  They made it!!!! Thanks to everyone that was there to cheering them and welcoming them!!!! What an experience!!! Congrats on your first #4daagse!Very #proudofyou!  Avril Watson (ESR8) is super happy to win best image at their research theme (RMSCT) away day! Here's some human retinal tissue with cone photoreceptors (magenta) and ABCA4 (yellow) at the outer segment tips! @nubiosciences @ITN_StarT #retina  Another graphical representation capturing the work done by our fellows.  The first output of the science communication training of our fellows who learned to share their research as a comprehensible and compelling story.
