We are delighted to direct your attention to the surprising findings of a collaborative project between the Boulton lab (Crick Waters) and our team, published today in @nature: “TRF2-independent chromosome end protection during pluripotency” nature.com/articles/s4158…). 1/

Big shout out to the team behind the UQ/CSL vaccine, on what must be an incredibly disappointing day. The time and commitment they have put in this year, under incredible stress and pressure deserves our thanks and recognition, regardless of the outcome. Science can be brutal.

We congratulate our Director, Professor Roger Reddel AO, on his receipt of an Order of Australia “for distinguished service to biomedical research in the field of adult and childhood cancer and genetics, and to tertiary education.” Read more: cmrijeansforgenes.org.au/news/australia…

Congratulations to CMRI’s Gene Therapy Research Unit who have made the cover of Human Gene Therapy with a publication about using gene therapy to convert the liver into a “manufacturing plant’’ to treat diseases of the eye and kidney. cmrijeansforgenes.org.au/news/gene-ther…

Great recognition of the excellent work of one of our CMRI colleagues. Congratulations, Computational Systems Biology Lab!

Great opportunity for prospective PhD students wanting to work on gene therapy with leaders in their field (Ian Alexander and Leszek Lisowski). Closing date for applications 11 Feb.

Many congratulations to our talented colleague Anai Gonzalez Cordero.

Our latest study, in collaboration with @ErosLazzerini, sheds light on the molecular mechanisms of the pathway triggered by the telomeric-associated zinc-finger protein (TZAP) in human cancer cells. cell.com/iscience/fullt…

Happy to have been asked to comment on a really interesting finding by Suneet Agarwal Lab and Will Mannherz. Telomere length control by thymidine - likely to have far-reaching implications. rdcu.be/c8Mqx
