Happy to announce our new publication in Nature Communications, spearheaded by super-talented project leader M@x R. . We identified that helicase loading is a self-limiting reaction supporting equal distribution of the replicative helicase across the genome. rdcu.be/dRTAZ

Thanks to Sara Morais da Silva J Cell Science for asking some thought-provoking questions & putting this together in a more coherent way 😄

Late because I was relaxing in 🇬🇷😎 In collaboration with AstraZeneca we performed a screen for secreted proteins that could induce G0 arrest & have published our results here: rdcu.be/dQxLJ

🧬A new study in Nature Communications by Christian Speck MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (MRC LMS) has shown how DNA helicases are equally distributed across the yeast #genome, ensuring accurate #DNAReplication. This could have implications for cancer & age-related diseases in the future. 👉lms.mrc.ac.uk/discovery-of-f…

📢New commentary in Nature Aging! MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (MRC LMS) scientists delve into the challenge of identifying senescent cells and explore how #MachineLearning approaches could transform #senescence research. 🔬💻 nature.com/articles/s4358…

Scientists at Imperial, Karolinska Institutet and MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (MRC LMS) have uncovered how hormones affect our immune systems, explaining why diseases can affect men and women differently 🤧 Read more ⬇️ imperial.ac.uk/news/255913/se…

Amazing work by my MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (MRC LMS) colleague and lab neighbour Petter Brodin investigating the biological basis of #sexdifferences for the #immuneresponse -important read!!

In a study in nature, researchers demonstrate the role of sex hormones in regulating the immune system. This knowledge explains differences between men and women and can be used to develop new immunological medications. Research by Petter Brodin et al. news.ki.se/new-research-e…

Brilliant work from Petter Brodin exploring #sexdifferences in the human immune response.

Happy Birthday Barr Lab! 🎉🎂🥂

Leica Microsystems Department of Biochemistry at Oxford University We are forever grateful to the MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (MRC LMS) who supported the project for over a decade. These new partnerships mean we can continue to share stunning imagery with professionally-written summaries, for free, to share the wonders of biomedical science as widely as possible.

📢: Congratulations to our MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (MRC LMS) Imperial College London group head, Dr Karen Sarkisyan on being named as one of Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) MIT Technology Review "35 Innovators Under 35" 2024! 🎉🎉🎉 lms.mrc.ac.uk/mrc-lms-resear…
