Could DNA breaks ever be a GOOD thing for cells? Check out our latest paper in Nature, in which we found that neurons normally undergo surprisingly high levels of DNA break/repair events at enhancers, likely important for epigenetic regulation. rdcu.be/chtRg

So proud of Sarah Hill from my team, who led the efforts from our group in an amazing (and fun!) collaboration with Wei Wu and Will Nathan in Andre Nussenzweig’s lab at the NCI and Keith Caldecott at the University of Sussex.

I'm thrilled to share our new paper on CRISPRi screening in iPSC-derived neurons, a joint effort with @MartinUCSF! Couldn't be more proud of the efforts by our multi-institute team to bring an idea into reality. cell.com/neuron/fulltext/S08…
