Our latest study, in collaboration with @ErosLazzerini, sheds light on the molecular mechanisms of the pathway triggered by the telomeric-associated zinc-finger protein (TZAP) in human cancer cells. cell.com/iscience/fulltext/S…

Big shout out to the team behind the UQ/CSL vaccine, on what must be an incredibly disappointing day. The time and commitment they have put in this year, under incredible stress and pressure deserves our thanks and recognition, regardless of the outcome. Science can be brutal.

For any G-quadruplex aficionados who use @BioRender for making figures, there are now (at my request) icons representing hybrid G4s (there were only parallel and antiparallel before). Have fun!
