Channeling the school trip energy with friends and colleagues at @viennabiocenter - we’ve organised the joint Vienna-Cambridge @LMBPhDSymposium which kicked off today 🇦🇹 🤝 🇬🇧

[LMB-IP Graduate Life Sciences Symposium @LMBPhDSymposium]

And we’re off! Warm welcome from our #LMBVBC committee chairs before an exciting day of talks 🧬 Don’t forget to tag us and #makingconnections2023 in your posts so we can see them!

[Gerlich Lab @Gerlich_Lab]

Ending the week with an announcement of our newly-published tool for exploring 3D #genomics data and 1D genomics profiles: HiCognition! Read the paper here https://t.co/8st93UFEXc and give it a try yourself at https://t.co/5qdza7kPQi

[Gerlich Lab @Gerlich_Lab]

In our latest paper, we use imaging and high-throughput DNA sequencing to probe the confirmation of replicated chromosomes. Read about how cohesin is able to resolve sisters through LE - and more - in our manuscript, published this week in @embojournal

[Gerlich Lab @Gerlich_Lab]

Our latest review is out today!

In "The Material Properties of Mitotic Chromosomes", we discuss how #mitosis endows chromosomes with specific material properties, and highlight some of the work from across the field that has brought us this far.
