Very excited to share the first preprint "Reconstitution of chromatin reorganization during mammalian oocyte development" from our lab🤞 Most of the experiments were done by my first PhD student Jing, who joined our lab at the second year of his PhD 😆

This seems on topic: Göttingen was once the center for mathematics in the world - until their gov had no more need for them. The profs that went to Princeton and other institutes in the US laid the foundation for the digital world. Massive brain drain. https://t.co/nOIOF5jFwx

#Cohesin is famous for its role in folding our #genome... but not in all cell types, according to the latest study by the lab of Jan-Michael Peters, now published in @genomeresearch. Sperm does it differently! ⬇ News: https://t.co/Rnqn0wkcyC Paper: https://t.co/x6KOTbIvJO (1/2)
