Recently out: “Uniform dynamics of cohesin-mediated loop extrusion in living human cells”. In this study led by brilliant former PhD student Thomas Sabaté we use live cell microscopy and polymer simulations to characterize how DNA loops and TADs form in human cells by cohesin-driven extrusion.

Congratulations Rita! Fantastic news!
Although I cannot imagine submitting a bioimaging paper to Nature Methods, without starting the cover letter with "Dear Dr. Strack"...
This was my reality since starting my PhD. 😅
