Thanks @MarcusBuschbeck and @BaranelloL for their help with our first paper from @HopkinsMedicine! And a big kudos to TaeHee Lee and the many @JohnsHopkinsSPH Masters student that made this possible.
Glad we were able to contribute to this tour de force of the Oberdoerffer lab.

We are looking for a postdoc to join us @HopkinsMedicine in beautiful (yes!) Baltimore, MD. Help us investigate the role of RNA/DNA secondary structures in DNA repair. Several CRISPR screen hits are waiting for follow-up analysis. Please RT! go.nature.com/3QQy0zc

Thanks @marcusBuschbeck and @CarrerasIJC for being great hosts. Got to enjoy exciting science, tapas and @PCATBS!
Today we had the pleasure to learn from @POberdoerffer about how macroH2A #histone_variants affect repair pathway choice.

Banning Mifepristone…?!? What’s next? Banning the production of seat belts? Because accidents must not happen…🤯 washingtonpost.com/national/…

Thanks to @altmeyerlab and the other editors for organizing an insightful @FrontGenetics research topic on DNA repair pathway choice bit.ly/30Rrq4L. And kudos to @rob_seb_ for spearheading our foray into the third dimension - bit.ly/3Fl49H7

Looking to improve and expand research skills before grad school? We are hiring a lab technician @HopkinsMedicine with interest in #DNArepair and #chromatin. Excited to see the lab grow slowly but surely. bit.ly/3EPuWLd; bit.ly/3bLCt1d

Very much enjoyed the #EMBOhistones workshop. Kudos to @MarcusBuschbeck, Emily Bernstein and Team! Macro-histones are coming of age after all those years. If interested in splicing, macroH2A and DNA repair, check out our postdoc ad: go.nature.com/2UO73SP. Image from @PoloSophie

So what's the deal with ssDNA and nucleosomes? I guess I'll stay tuned...
The Pfander lab uses a strand-specific #ChIPseq workflow to reveal protein binding modes at DNA double stranded breaks and that #nucleosome eviction is intrinsically coupled with DNA end resection. Check out the new paper in @MolCell ➡️doi.org/10.1016/j.molcel.202… #DNArepair

Angelika Amon passed away this morning. She was the greatest scientist I’ve ever met. This is a huge loss for her family, her friends, and for every biologist.

Funniest typo in an acceptance note: “As you can see from the comments attached below, this referee is not generally positive and supports publication.”

Congrats and thanks to Robin Sebastian and his cousin Anoop Jose for getting us on the cover! Family business rules. Wishing @CellPress would have sent us at least on free copy...
