We're thrilled to announce PCGI Postdoc, Arindam Datta (Greenberg Lab), has published work showing that the BRCA1-A complex blocks replication fork reversal to restrict DNA end resection, defining the molecular basis of chemotherapy response in ATM-mutated cancers:
Congratulations to Arindam Datta @arindam_datta1 on publication of “The BRCA1-A complex restricts replication fork reversal-dependent DNA repair in ATM deficient cells”. nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
Congratulations to one of our PCGI trainees, Haoyang Jiang!
Looking forward to the next PCGI Mini Symposium session on "Single Molecule Approaches to Genome Stability" on Monday, May 11, featuring Drs. Eric Greene (Columbia), Michelle Wang (Cornell), and Johannes Walter (Harvard) in the Gaulton Auditorium. med.upenn.edu/pcgi/upcoming-…
Yesterday, we enjoyed a wonderful round of talks by guests John Maciejowski, @J_Maciejowski, Sergei Mirkin (Tufts), with colleague Kavitha Sarma @sarma_lab, plus Piero Lamelza & Abby Hwang, at PCGI’s Mini Symposium on “Unusual DNA Structures." Our thanks to all who attended!
Congrats to PCGI Core Faculty Drs. Mia Levine and Mike Lampson for their paper in @CurrentBiology showing how telomere length is inherited, opening new possibilities for aging and cancer research; featured in Penn Today:

We are thrilled to announce PCGI Core Faculty Member Dr. Dennis Discher has been elected to the American Academy of Arts & Sciences @americanacad, please join us in sending him a huge congratulations! penntoday.upenn.edu/news/fiv…
Session topic was “Pressures to genome integrity during development & regeneration." This PCGI Mini Symposium was our last this year, we'd like to thank everyone who participated & attended for a wonderful series. We'll post what comes next to our website: med.upenn.edu/pcgi/upcoming-…
Had a fantastic round of talks yesterday thanks to guest speakers Drs. Yukiko Yamashita (MIT), Zuzana Tothova (Broad Institute), & Tony Huang (NYU), with Drs. Hongjun Song (Neuroscience @UPenn_SongMing), Daria Babushok (Med/Pediatrics @BabushokLab), & Hiroki Akizawa (Plachta Lab)
Enjoyed a terrific round of talks yesterday by Drs. Paula Cohen (Cornell), Scott Keeney (MSKCC) & Srinivas Viswanathan @srviswanathan, with trainees @damian_dudka & Cara Brand for our PCGI Mini Symposium on Sex Chromosomes and Meiosis
We are excited to report work from PCGI Director @RogerRogergr together with Elton Zeqiraj and Joe Salvino on the discovery of BIRSC deubiquitinating enzyme inhibitors for inflammatory indications rdcu.be/edRwF.
Please see our discovery of first-in-class BRISC deubiquitylating enzyme inhibitors rdcu.be/edRwF. A great journey with Elton Zeqiraj, Francesca Chandler, Joe Salvino. High-throughput screens, cryo-EM structure and ontarget activity to reduce inflammatory signals.
We enjoyed a great round of talks by @CicciaAlberto (Columbia), @LeeZou8 (Duke), Dr. Agnel Sfeir (MSKCC), and @ranjitbindra (Yale), plus our trainees @arindam_datta1 and Azrin Jamalruddin at yesterday’s PCGI Mini Symposium on "Targeting the Damage Response"
