Just retweeted the powerful film concerning the criminalising of refugees. I don’t usually tweet political matters but my paternal grandparents fled a civil war and found refuge in the U.K. They wouldn’t today.

That's it - we can no longer apply for ERC grants. UK Science is currently in a sad place. We are unable to take to take a full part in the European scientific community that we find so welcoming and beneficial.

We are in the bizarre position that the last set of ERC Grant awardees in the UK have to reject their grant so that the UK Government will pick up the tab...

FCCS has already given us unexpected insights into how the APC/C recognises Cyclin B1, and how Cyclin-CDK complexes are assembled. Now we are addressing how the Spindle Assembly Checkpoint works!

Saptha has been brilliant in optimising FCCS but is moving to a new position (though he'll be able to help get someone started). Join us to elucidate the mysteries of mitosis in living cells.

Excellent talk by Luca at the Consequences of Aneuploidy meeting honouring Angelika Amon @FASEBorg #Aneuploidy22. I think Angelika would have approved.

📢 Hot off the press 📢 🧬 Ever wonder why some DNA sequences are difficult to replicate? Using reconstituted replisomes we revealed that structure-forming repeats induce robust replication stalling and uncovered structure-specific recovery mechanisms: nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

A ROS-dependent mechanism promotes CDK2 phosphorylation to drive progression through S phase

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are by-products of mitochondrial respiration. Kirova et al. find that mitochondrial ROS increase during the cell cycle and oxidize cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2) to...

Congratulations to Jörg Mansfeld and colleagues on identifying a link between the redox state of a cell and the decision to replicate. Implications for the tumour micro environment and radiation therapy.
