Region Capture Micro-C and 3D Genome Structure (Anders Sejr Hansen)

Excellent @activemotifusa.bsky.social epigenetics podcast w @andersshansen.bsky.social

It’s interesting, while going through specific projects and lines of questioning, the conversation acts as a nice reflection of the state of our field (fields?)

Lots of ideas!

Choose your human genome reference wisely - Nature Methods Scientists can choose between multiple human genome references, and a pangenome reference is coming. Deciding what to use when is not quite straightforward.

As new human assemblies become available on beta.ensembl.org - which human reference genome will you choose? This article explores the question with insights from Ensembl’s own Fergal Martin - www.nature.com/articles/s41...

DNA-repair-driven cell death compels us to rethink cancer therapies - Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology Emerging evidence suggests that, following genotoxic therapy, it is the repair of DNA double-strand breaks, rather than the damage itself, that frequently drives cancer cell death.

New from us in @natrevmcb.nature.com -- @szmyd-radoslaw.bsky.social & @radoncdocgee.bsky.social explore how DNA repair actively shapes cancer cell fate following DNA damage, reframing repair as both a protective process & a driver of treatment response and cell death. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Trump 2.0: an assault on science anywhere is an assault on science everywhere US President Donald Trump is taking a wrecking ball to science and to international institutions. The global research community must take a stand against these attacks.

Inexplicably, US administration has launched an unprecedented assault on science, on research institutions & on vital international organizations & initiatives.
