The versatile REV7 protein plays important roles in cancer development and chemotherapy resistance. Our lab's own Lara Maggs just published a comprehensive review of REV7 biology in a Frontiers issue collated by @lab_chatterjee. Check it out here:

Interested in a postdoc that trains you in ALL of the skills you'll need as an academic? The Tufts IRACDA program may be for you. #IRACDA #postdoc #academia

@FoxLabDuke I absolutely love this!

We’re so excited! Please encourage your graduate students who want to continue in academia to apply to this program.

@science_SRH That’s fantastic, Sarah!

Our lab's initial foray into DNA damage tolerance in Drosophila was published in PLoS Genetics yesterday. A true team effort, with lots of surprises. One highlight: REV1 catalytic activity deals with alkylation damage, but only if pol zeta is missing!

The view from the conference room at #DNASRC. (Not really, but it’s just down the hall). Great science deserves a great setting!

Packing my bags for the FASEB #DNASRC starting tomorrow. Can’t wait to reconnect and hear about everyone’s new science!

Can’t wait to have you here!

@AgnelSfeir @TijstermanM @AnnualReviews @AgnelSfeir @TijstermanM it was a lot of fun!

RT @FASEBorg: Save $150 on this amazing conference before June 9. Don't miss the chance to connect at #DNASRC and hear the latest research.…

Congratulations to our lab’s Dr. Tokio Sano, who stood on stage today as a newly minted Ph.D. A culmination of much hard work, inspiration, and determination.

Tried something new in our undergraduate Biology of Aging class this year. Students created YouTube videos in which they analyzed scientific literature related to healthspan/longevity-related interventions. Feel free to check them out here:

We’re excited too!

RT @FASEBorg: We want your DNA abstracts! Don't miss this chance to connect with peers at #DNASRC and ignite new discoveries - submit by Ma…

Congratulations to Alyssa Persano and her IRACDA postdoctoral mentor Sara Martin for a successful defense of her senior honors thesis! Her surprising and striking results have made us question many of our lab’s prior assumptions about how base excision repair works in flies.

RT @mages05: Abstracts due 5/26. Explore DNA research at #DNASRC in July! Dive into replication, recombination, and repair. From G quadrupl…

First lab kickball game on a cool spring day in Boston. For some of us, it brought back lots of memories from elementary and middle school. #bouncyredball

@GenomeStability @chiara_masnovo Also FASEB Dynamic DNA Structures in Biology, July 21-26 2024, Melbourne Florida

Makes you think—but not too hard, or you may break your DNA!
