Heading to Cambridge for the annual Genome Stability Network meeting. Glad I’m on a train, as it’s grim outside!

Enjoying a little rest and recuperation in Rejkyavik, Iceland.

DNA2 enables growth by restricting recombination-restarted replication - Nature DNA2 suppresses recombination-restarted replication and checkpoint activation at stalled forks, and its loss triggers recombination-dependent synthesis, checkpoint signalling and cell-cycle exit, high...

#New-Paper Rass laboratory reveal DNA2 to be a gatekeeper to homologous recombination at stalled DNA replication forks, rrequired to stave off cellular senescence. Their findings provide a molecular explanation for the association of DNA2 with primordial dwarfism and cancer.

... and this one too! Again, quite amazing microscopy. Major congrats to Maria + colleagues for getting this story online.

A bit like buses...
Nice to see this work online - there is quite the amazing amount of data in this manuscript, all power to Rob Zach + colleagues!

Many congratulations to Dr. Will Foster on succesfully defending his PhD thesis on Greatwall Kinase (GWL); co-supervissed by Tony Oliver and Helfrid Hochegger.
