1/ New preprint alert! In collaboration between the Rosen, Redding, Collepardo-Guevara & Gerlich labs, we uncover a surprising principle of chromosome organisation: electrostatic repulsion positions centromeres at the chromosome surface during mitosis. 🔗 doi.org/10.1101/2025...

🚨 New paper out in Nature Comms! From the Rosen, Redding and Collepardo Labs, we uncover how #nucleosome spacing fine-tunes the architecture of #chromatin condensates. 👇 A short thread on how physical #genome organization emerges from molecular interactions: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

So excited to finally see our CTPR-condensate work published! Well done Chris, Mateo, Julia et al. ❤️ @chemicalscience.rsc.org @phar.cam.ac.uk @rcollepardo.bsky.social @juliamaristany.bsky.social doi.org/10.1039/D5SC...

🌱Join us for the first #FragileNucleosome seminar of this spring! We are excited to host @juliamaristany.bsky.social & @chribue.bsky.social this week! If you have registered before you can join from the same link, if not, don't forget to register! us06web.zoom.us/webinar/regi...

Excited to share our newest collaboration with @kazu-maeshima.bsky.social and @masaashimazoe.bsky.social, where we show that H1 acts as a liquid-like glue in chromatin. Go check the paper on the biorXiv!

We are happy to share our work on local #nucleosome dynamics integrating #temperature inputs into an #epigenetic switching mechanism. ⚠️ Preprint alert!! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Proud to have the final version of our paper on mutations + condensates + scaling laws published in @elife.bsky.social! Work led by @juliamaristany.bsky.social w/ @rcollepardo.bsky.social ! Read the digest here: elifesciences.org/digests/9906...

Exciting new preprint alert! 🚨 The Collepardo lab, teaming up with Huabin Zhou and the Rosen lab we took a deep, high-resolution look into chromatin condensates! [1/6] #Chromatin #MD @rcollepardo.bsky.social @juliamaristany.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

The Multiscale Genome Organisation is now on Bluesky! Our first post is to announce our next webinar. Join us next week on Tuesday, Jan. 28th at 12:00 E.T. for two exciting talks by Pablo Dans and @gfudenberg.bsky.social See you all there! Link: mit.zoom.us/j/91715298970

Happy holidays from the Collepardo group ♥️

Excited to be a part of this story!!! Check out our new manuscript exploring how linker DNA length controls chromatin's ability to phase separate

Is chromatin ordered or disordered? It all depends on the linker DNA length. Check our latest work with Mike Rosen and Sy Redding. We explore how changes in linker DNA length (as small as 1 bp) fine-tune chromatin structure, between order and disorder, and the properties of chromatin droplets
