Honored to see our work highlighted by @fredhutch and @HutchBasicSci. In this study, We mapped the binding and regulatory targets of nearly all yeast transcription factors and found that the classic model often doesn’t hold. Check out the paper here nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

In new work published today in @Nature, researchers in @HutchBasicSci discover that most transcription factors in budding yeast don’t follow the textbook example of binding close to the genes they regulate bit.ly/4iu9YoM

Last Saturday, at the park I once (miserably) ran around in 7th grade PE, I stood on a picnic table to stoke the patriotic spirit of 3,000 of my neighbors — and it was a thrill I’ll never forget. I had just flown home the night before from Istanbul, where a grassroots upwelling of concerned citizens is standing up to autocracy, making our local gathering feel even more poignant. I thought you might enjoy a few highlights from the speech I wrote on the plane flying home. Please join me in spirit — and if you have any great photos or reflections from your own local #HandsOff rally, I’d love to see them!

Fred Hutch researchers discover that overproduction of DNA packaging material predicts aggressive brain and breast tumors, which could lead to cheaper diagnostic tests and new drug therapies. bit.ly/43kHcCV

Researchers at Fred Hutch have discovered an overlooked mechanism driving aggressive breast and brain tumors involving genes so ancient — more than 2 billion years old — that they fly under the radar of standard genetic sequencing methods. 1/9 science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

Everything feels weird and uncertain, and I can only imagine how trainees feel right now… so are some things mentors can do to support mentees during these challenging times:
