RFC1 regulates the expansion of neural progenitors in the developing zebrafish cerebellum - Nature Communications RFC1 is a replication and repair protein, and mutations to this gene are associated with rare movement disorders like late-onset cerebellar ataxias. Here they show that RFC1 is essential for zebrafish...

🇨🇦 What better way to celebrate Canada Day?

Our new paper is out in Nature Communications!
We reveal a previously unknown role for RFC1 in cerebellar neurogenesis, shedding light on the origins of late-onset ataxia.

👏 Big kudos to our whole team
