Many thanks for this cool collaboration. It is so nice to see the complete story. Love that in vivo work can reveal mechanistic insights, like the MCM2-7 exit gate during helicase activation or the first base pairs that are unwound at replication origins. Well done!

We are recruiting a PhD student to tackle a fundamental question in cancer biology: how DNA replication fails at centromeres and drives chromosomal instability (CIN) — a major driver of tumour evolution and therapy resistance.

A new study, published today in Nature, reveals the hidden benefits of weight loss on fat tissue.
A better understanding of how weight loss leads to health improvements at a molecular level could help inform the development of therapies for diseases such as type 2 diabetes in the future.
Still time to apply for the MRC LMS Emerging Innovators Fellowship for scientists of Black heritage!!!

700,000 women are to be recruited to take part in an NHS AI breast cancer screening trial in England. Five different AI platforms will be tested across 30 sites from April to see if the technology can speed up diagnosis as well as free up radiologists.

We developed a proteomic kinase activity sensor platform (ProKAS) for the analysis of kinase signaling using mass spectrometry. ProKAS is based on a tandem array of peptide sensors with amino acid barcodes that allow multiplexed analysis for spatial, kinetic, and screening applications.
Excited to share our preprint reporting a completely new approach to study kinase signaling: ProKAS.
ProKAS is based on a tandem array of peptide sensors with barcodes for multiplexed, spatial and kinetic applications.
We applied it to DDR kinases. Please share.
