Loops of DNA Equipped Ancient Life To Become Complex | Quanta Magazine New work shows that physical folding of the genome to control genes located far away may have been an early evolutionary development.

I adored writing this piece. It brings together several of the things preoccupying me right now, like chromatin organization and gene regulation. There's so much more to be said on that. Also, these marine critters look gorgeous.

Wooooowwww ! Partyyyy

A Palestinian, son of Palestinians displaced from Gaza (Al-Masmiyya) to Jordan, wins the Nobel Prize in Chemistry... Professor Omar Munis Yaghi from the University of Berkeley!!

..Some members of the Yaghi family are still under the rubble in Gaza!

Last Call !

Please Register. It will be fun, I promise.

"I have a plan of sampling mountain peak snow" fun, and "I can't not bring the lab's scope" fun ...

RIP. He changed Dev Bio in so many ways.

In the inbox ;)

Fire in the hole !

Congrats @thibautbrunet.bsky.social and co on the method and the new biology of YAP and ECM !

This needs a call.
But keep 2g of your sishuan ready. And get some nom iodine salt..

Lucky you !

Ferment some with charcolled spicy pepper / and you get yourself an amazing spicy sauce for the winter !

I've also started giving up on my inbox 6 months ago.

Using the snooze option aint cutting it either...
Sorry all, keep sending emails.

Temporal and spatial coordination of DNA segregation and cell division in an archaeon. Cells must coordinate DNA segregation with cytokinesis to ensure that each daughter cell inherits a complete genome. Here, we explore how DNA segregation and division are mechanistically coupled in ar...

We are excited to share our preprint describing how Sulfolobus cells coordinate DNA segregation with cell division! In eukaryotes this type of regulation involves checkpoints and CDK-cyclins. But how does this work in archaea? This is the question we ask in our paper: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

So for >30y, it was thought that #MAPK cascade in #fission #yeast lacked a scaffold ! Like in #animals, or #budding yeast.

Well this changes today !

All hail #Sms1

Congrats @borissieber.bsky.social @sophiemartinlab.bsky.social and Team !!

Looks gorgeous.

We have and will have some opennings her in Geneva ;)

And @lsaunders.bsky.social also work on the same non-mouse as you ! I think there is more for you in there than you think!
But spread the wordssssss

@mads100tist.bsky.social you coming ? Also spread the word on your side of CH please ?

So for you out there wondering what to do in January ?
Register quickly, only a few spots are left.

Prioirty to CH PhS Students/Postdocs.

Time for a thread!🧵 How different is the molecular organization of thylakoids in “higher” plants🌱? To find out, we teamed up with @profmattjohnson.bsky.social to dive into spinach chloroplasts with #CryoET ❄️🔬. Curious? ..Read on!

You should attempt a Snowflake Yeast architecture next time. Haha

This is really something to look forward to !!!!

Be our neighbour !

The #PRETZEL is out !!!
Okay the CAGE renamed now fine.

Congrats @computingcaitie.bsky.social and team!!

A molecular-resolution look into the near-native architecture of the spinach chloroplast🌱. This one was a long time in the oven, but we're happy to finally share our "version of record". What long-standing debates did we settle? Check back for a short thread🧵 on Monday. #TeamTomo #PlantScience 🧪🧶🧬🔬🌾

Looks like I am late to this party but have exciting news. I’ve been awarded an ERC Starting Grant to study #XtrmCells! Thankful to @erc.europa.eus for this opportunity, and to my collaborators, mentors, and group for their support. Looking forward to exploring the mechanics of these cells!
