We study basic mechanisms of genome stability maintenance altered in cancer
📢 For all HaloTag lovers💙💚💛❤️💜🩶 we are excited to share that our work, in which we developed a new biotin-HaloTag ligand, is now published in @JCellBiol! Full link here: rupress.org/jcb/article-ab…
The application deadline has been extended for a postdoc position in our lab until August 22. Please enquire/apply if you are interested in ADP-ribosylation, ubiquitination, genome stability or immunity. my.corehr.com/pls/uoxrecruit…
🚨 Hot off the press!!! Wanted to share this to celebrate the momentous achievement from the @GiuntaLab and for the human centromere / genomics communities as a whole... more posts to come next week but for now, happy Fourth & happy reading ❤️🧬💻 science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Three days, fresh data, & sparkly debates on how replication gaps drive cancer & disease. Grateful for every talk & discussion. Thank you for pushing science forward—next stop: great papers. Science moves fast when we move together!

Truly honored that my career path and laboratory have been featured in the 'Cell Scientist to Watch' interview series. A huge thank you Sara Morais da Silva and @J_Cell_Sci for this wonderful opportunity 🙏
Cell scientist to watch – Hana Polasek-Sedlackova @HanaSedlackova1 In this interview, we learn about Hana’s career, her insights on collaborative research and her engineering hobby. journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/13…
It's out! nature.com/articles/s4158… Structure of the two RAD52 rings forming a spool-like structure at replication fork, rearranging and protecting the fork. Tour-de-force work by Masa Honda and Ali Razzaghi and wonderful (as usual) collaboration with @PietroPichierri 's lab.
🙏 Thank you, @3reak, @LabVincenzo, and Evident, for fantastic collaboration! Special thanks go to the exceptionally talented postdoc Paolo Fagherazzi and the brilliant image analysis specialist Timo Diekmann for their extraordinary efforts! 🙏
Thrilled to share our latest work at @ScienceAdvances. Great collab with Costanzo, Masson, Freire and Reyes labs. HMCES corrupts replication fork stability during base excision repair in homologous recombination–deficient cells | Science Advances science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
