I am offering two MSc by Research opportunities in my laboratory (self-funded!), one on the human-pathogenic yeast Candidazyma auris tinyurl.com/ys8zexbv

The other one on how the misregulation of a key meiotic factor might affect genome stability tinyurl.com/pjxrvur9

New review about DNA double-strand break resection during meiosis, with @alhajijoker.bsky.social and Soonjoung Kim. Please check it out: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Cell-free system enables detailed study of the role of SPO11 in meiosis www.nature.com/articles/d41... www.nature.com/articles/s41... www.nature.com/articles/s41... www.nature.com/articles/s41... @ccb-lab.bsky.social @spo11rulz.bsky.social

New preprint from the lab! We defined the kinetics of strand invasion during meiosis in C. elegans. Great work from Antonia, Henry and Divya. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Looking for a PhD candidate! Contact me if you wish to investigate a cellular compartment that 1) is certainly important but 2) we know almost nothing about. www.findaphd.com/phds/project...

Delighted to share the ground-breaking work from BBSRC Discovery Fellow @whgittens.bsky.social mapping physiological Top2 activity without poisons. Acute sensitivity enables sub-minute visualisation of Top2 hotspots hidden within sites of latent topological stress: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Hello Bluesky, for my first post here I'm happy to share our latest preprint reporting the first biochemical reconstitution of DNA double-strand break formation by SPO11. SPO11 dimerization controls meiotic DNA double-strand break formation. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Hi Bluesky. For my first post, I'd like to advertise the latest preprint from my lab, describing at long last our reconstitution of SPO11-dependent double-strand break formation from purified recombinant proteins. Outstanding work from PhD student Zhi (Zack) Zheng.

To journal editorial folks: If your journal doesn't already, please consider changing your work flow to return to authors at the proof stage a copy-edited version of their paper with editors' changes tracked. Just caught a major editor's mistake in some proofs.
