We are pleased to report the publication of our review on the formation and resolution of meiotic chromosome entanglements and interlocks. It was a pleasure to work with Ofer Rog @TheRogLab and IvƔn Olaya @meiocyte_Ivan on this project. https://t.co/WFqHOyLzCo

Summary: During meiosis, chromosomes can become entangled or entrapped and subsequently form interlocks. Here, we review observations of interlocks and provide insights into mechanisms that resolve...

Congratulations to former Burgess lab BioGAP student Aliyah Penn for her admissions to Johns Hopkins PhD program AND an NSF GRSF Fellowship!
Carla is in @Juliano_Lab for a postbacc with PREP@UCD and Aliyah worked with @smburgessucd a few summers ago. We are so proud of them!

Using a strain of mutant mice, Sloan Kettering Institute researchers discovered new info about how genetic mutations occur during meiosis. This could help them understand more about how miscarriages and genetic diseases occur. @Spo11Rulz @CellPressNews
