Registrations are now open!!

Happy to share the “International Symposium on Chromosome Dynamics: from Structure to Cellular Function” that will be held in Japan 31st of May 2026 www.fbs.osaka-u.ac.jp/labs/fukagaw.... Registrations will open on December 1st! Plenty of opportunities to present your work! Hope to seeing you

The 21st Course on Epigenetics which will take place from March 25th to April 1st, 2026 at the Institut Curie (Paris). The Course is open to M2 and PhD students. Application via the Advanced Training Office website before December 15th, 2025 at: minilien.curie.fr/3avv47

Very excited and honored that our project CenAGE with @manellab.bsky.social and Elsa Logarinho was granted! Looking forward to discover how centromere instability affects the immune cells contributing to systemic ageing. More Info here: curie.fr/actualite/no... Open positions soon, stay tuned!

My team is recruiting a Study Engineer (IE) with experience in mammalian cell culture - ideally human iPSCs - to work on a project exploring the role of aneuploidy and centromere regulation in neuroblastoma initiation and progression. info and application here institut-curie.org/job/study-en....

Thanks to @erhardtlab.bsky.social for the news and views on our paper on DNA methylation&centromere www.nature.com/articles/s41....

10-year celebration of the Fachinetti team! Thank you to all my amazing current and former members for making these two days so special for me! I feel so lucky to have met you all!

#1 Centromeres are epigenetic loci defined by CENP-A, positioned in unmethylated DNA flanked by highly methylated regions. Our work, published in @natgenet.nature.com in collaboration with @naltemose.bsky.social investigates the role of DNAme at human centromeres www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Great time with @hirofunabiki.bsky.social @rockefelleruniv.bsky.social with amazing discussion with @prasad.bsky.social , @johnmaciejowski.bsky.social @agnelsfeir.bsky.social and Simona Giunta. Thanks also to Hiro’s lab for all the great chat! Happy to have seen my PhD friend Fabio Vanoli

Congrats to the team! Happy that we could help!

Hi all, my team institut-curie.org/team/fachine... @institutcurie.bsky.social is looking for a Bioinformatician. You can find more details about the position here: euraxess.ec.europa.eu/jobs/344508 Is anyone looking for a job in the lovely Paris?

The @embo.org #chromoploidy2025 is over. It was an amazing workshop organized by a perfect match of scientists and friends @mcclellandlab.bsky.social @bendavidlab.bsky.social @stesantaguida.bsky.social @foijer-lab.bsky.social, Elsa Logarinho, Caroline Audouin and myself

So thrilled to participate in the #EMBO workshop on aneuploidy in the magnificient Stresa. Cheers to the many organizers including @dfachinetti.bsky.social

Excited to get the #EMBOChromoploidy meeting started! 3 days of fantastic science and fun in beautiful Stresa are beginning now! meetings.embo.org/event/25-ane...

The Fachinetti team was there! #UneJonquilleContreleCancer

“Stand up for Science” demonstration in Paris!

Last week to register (March 2nd) to the next Genome Instability and Human Disease international course at @institut_curie! Gain knowledge of mechanisms ensuring genome stability, from fundamental molecular pathways up to large scale approaches.

A chance to raise our voices!

We have a research laboratory technician post available in my group - the role will support plant work, and molecular biology, associated with our research on centromeres. www.jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/47342/

Thanks to Elsa and Reto for inviting me at I3S, Porto! A blast to see old friends and great time with @carloscondetv.bsky.social

Thanks to @cnrsbiologie.bsky.social for covering our work from @sol-herve.bsky.social and Andrea Scelfo with @katemiro.bsky.social

Excited to share the first paper from my lab 🤩 - a great collaboration with Dani Fachinetti lab - we discover a #mechanosensitive nuclear envelope #checkpoint that arrests cells directly post chromosome mis-segregation rdcu.be/d5AC9 👇🧵 #cancer #mechanics #p53 #chromatin

#1 Happy to share our last work published in @NatureCellBio about a new cell cycle checkpoint that senses nuclear shape & mechanics to guarantee genome integrity www.nature.com/articles/s41.... Great work from @sol-herve.bsky.social & Andrea Scelfo in close collaboration with @katemiro.bsky.social

We are very pleased to announce our 20th Course on Epigenetics, which will take place from March 11th to March 18th 2025 @institutcurie.bsky.social. Applications are open to M2 and PhD students. training.institut-curie.org/courses/epig...

Check it out the preview of our mechano aneuploidy response paper in collaboration with Kate Miroshnikiva lab that will be released early January. A great sneak peek from Elsa Logarinho and team www.nature.com/articles/s41...

It is time to ask for a Xmas present to your PI! Register to this amazing EMBO aneuploidy meeting that will be held on a beautiful lake close to Milan, Italy on the 27 of April! Registration deadline is approaching!
