Words cannot adequately express the pain and loss highlighted by the Chauvin trial. Systemic racism has taken too many lives from the Black community, while prolonging socioeconomic and health disparities and outcomes. We stand against racism in all its forms. (1/2)

Our scientific illustrator just got her work published in @ScienceAdvances !! Congrats to our mentor @ChromaTownie & Dr. @maggie_despise for a lovely story on gene silencing & RNA structure! We love the designs biology offers us to probe & puzzle over!
Now out at @ScienceAdvances, exactly a year after we posted the pre-print (on my birthday again)! Fantastic work by @maggie_despise to understand how RNA structure can module PRC2 activity, which helps resolve how lncRNAs and PRC2 can work together. advances.sciencemag.org/cont…
