Show PostHello World ! Its pre-print time ! Awesome collaboration led by Michel Cohen-Tannoudji (not on Bsky) and the one and only @deborahbourchis.bsky.social. #BFF We solved the molecular mechanism underlying a mysterious hybrid incompatibility in mice: the DDK syndrome. 🧵🍿 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
Show PostThis is a phenomenal story going from a classic genetic mystery to a sophisticated molecular mechansims, and another example of what Barbara McClintock predicted: transposons re-shape the genome in relevant ways
Show PostA big week for the lab! Two new papers on how cells repair DNA double-strand breaks: one on getting NHEJ started in chromatin, one on processing the ends before ligation. Years of work by a fantastic team.
Show PostAs a postdoc, Phillip Cleves became the first person to genetically modify #coral. Now, he's trying to figure out how to save reefs and the magnificent ecosystems they host. Learn more about IGI's newest investigator: https://innovativegenomics.org/news/saving-coral-reefs-phil-cleves/
