What governs where DNA replication begins in human cells? Here, we show that origins of replication in human DNA are epigenetically specified and that crucially, this epigenetic mark is required for both DNA replication and cell proliferation! academic.oup.com/nar/article… 1/3
Also many thanks to the reviewers and editors @NAR_Open, @OxUniPress for your time, suggestions and support 🙂🔬🧬. Happy reading! 3/3
I have now (finally) migrated to the other place, where once again I can scroll through beautiful science posts. Please come follow me there @rebannjones.bsky.social

Free scientific illustrations for biologists! 😍
@NIH has released a library of 500+ free scientific illustrations to create figures, presentations, and illustrations!
all freely available in the public domain.
Retweet and spread the message!

I can't believe I hadn't heard the term night science before. It's real, it's beautiful and it's crucial. Exploratory science, in my opinion, is equally as important as hypothesis driven science - one simply cannot thrive without the other.
The final work from my PhD @TheCrick is out today in Open Biology @royalsociety! Using zebrafish, we show that the poorly understood, oncogenesis-related gene Fam83f plays roles in larval hatching and the DNA damage mediated autophagic response. 🐟🧬1/2

Huge thanks to all my co-authors, including @FayFayCooper, @CALM_STP, @gpsapkota and of course, my amazing mentor, @ProfJimSmith. As always, thank you to the 🐟and 🐸 that enabled this work, and all my previous colleagues from the Smith lab. 2/2

Online now: Radially patterned morphogenesis of murine hair follicle placodes ensures robust epithelial budding dlvr.it/TFPTyf
Proud to have contributed to this story from @lleybova and others, now out in @Dev_Cell! We show that hair follicle cell fates are radially patterned by Wnt and Shh gradients and that position and fate determine morphogenetic behavior. nam12.safelinks.protection.o…
Great news! The deadline for abstract submission to be considered for a talk at the Directed Cell Migration GRS has been extended to 🙌November 1st🙌! Any abstracts submitted until then will be given consideration for a talk. Come share your work with us in Tuscany 😍 Please RT!
Registration for the Directed Cell Migration GRC/GRS is now OPEN! Come join this welcoming community in beautiful Tuscany to discuss pre-publication cutting-edge research and network with your peers. Thrilled to be chairing the GRS together with @tlngy 🥼🧪🔬🦠 Please RT!

A team of experts led by #PrincetonU's @SebastianSeung and Mala Murthy have, for the first time, mapped the entire brain of a fruit fly. 🧠
The project gives way to "discover fundamental rules for complex brains." (via @nytimes) nyti.ms/4dys0nl
