“I think it’s a real mistake to forget where the pipeline for all this begins.” John Diffley reflects on the importance of basic research, his mission to decode DNA replication and recreate it in the lab, and the scientific optimism of the 1960s that helped shape it.

1/ 🚀 AEBP2 isn’t what we thought. You were told that AEBP2 promotes PRC2 activity on chromatin. We found the opposite: the most prevalent AEBP2 isoform inhibits PRC2 activity. 👉

I've written a commentary for Cell Systems arguing that biology needs to find a way to communicate its complexity from the outset, rather than starting with simple but misleading narratives. It's free to view and download here (until 1 April).
