I am very excited to share the newest paper of the lab, a huge amount of work led by our talented PhD student Maxime Galloy, in close collaboration with Andréanne Blondeau, our dedicated research assistant for 10 years! 🙌 www.cell.com/molecular-ce...

First preLights post from Jenny Singh (@jennysingh.bsky.social‬) She covers work showing that Lamin A/C maintains replication fork integrity during mild replication stress by modulating chromatin structure & restraining RECQ1 activity. #preprint #preLight ⬇️ prelights.biologists.com/highlights/n...

Big shots and raising stars in an expanding field. See flyers + link to receive email alerts. Please repost to your network!👇

Join us in Lisbon this July to learn how cells "Balance Genome Fidelity & Plasticity". deadline for talks extended and a # of fellowships are available to offset trainee registration. www.fusion-conferences.com/conference/1...

Happy to have contributed(along with PhD students @joannapaulson.bsky.social & Collin Bakker) to such great work from @lopeslab.bsky.social and team! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Online today @science.org 👀Molecular basis of FIGNL1 in dissociating RAD51 from #DNA and #chromatin by @alexcarver.bsky.social @layates.bsky.social et al. in @imperialcollegeldn.bsky.social @mskcancercenter.bsky.social www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

What are your plans for October 2025? It would be a fantastic time to visit Norway for the Endogenous DNA Damage and Repair conference with a stellar set of speaker covering a wide range of topics. www.endodnadamage.com

Dear all, my first post! I have postdoc positions available if you would like to join my lab in beautiful Sussex by the Sea! Please contact me on [email protected]

behold our paper on Medusavirus nucleosomes. Fantastic work by Chelsea Toner, @nhoitsma.bsky.social, and Sashi Weerawarana This giant virus also encodes a linker histone, more about that in the paper 🧪👩‍🔬 🧵. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Happy to share our new paper with Goran Kokic and the Svejstrup lab in Cell! We show that STK19 facilitates the clearance of lesion-stalled RNAPII during transcription-coupled DNA repair. Great teamwork by Diana, Marta and Paula! www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...

What an exciting day for the lab at the Dutch Chromatin Meeting! Congrats to Ashutosh (a.k.a Vincent 😉)for winning the poster prize on 3D reorganization of stressed forks & Joanna for her fantastic talk on phase separation during replication stress. Proud of you guys! 🤩

Two back-to-back papers in Nature comms from mylab explore the link between destabilization of the actin cytoskeleton and aberrant base excision repair - passing through nuclear actin and the actin-dependent nucleosome remodeler INO80C.

The latest from our group, led by Megan Ostrowski and @martyyang.bsky.social, is now published in final form (www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...! Many thanks to our excellent peer reviewers for suggesting several experiments (including CAF-1 perturbation) to really improve the study =) #epigenetics

First post here! New paper from the lab! Profound synthetic lethality between FANCM and SMARCAL1: www.cell.com/molecular-ce...

Fantastic study… Congratulations Francesca n team! 👏

Being haiku-ed is an honor! You were so fast, too 🤩

New function for an 'old' chromatin remodeler: great collaboration with @nitikataneja.bsky.social and others. Fantastic work from our own @nhoitsma.bsky.social. Check out how SMARCAD1 contributes to resolving R-loops during replication, before they become a problem. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

How are R-loops & conflicts rapidly resolved ahead of actively progressing forks? Is there a remodeler that associates with active forks, binds directly to R-loops, and senses & suppresses them? Check out our new study here!👇 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
