Breast cancer relapse is driven by dormant cells that hide for years before reawakening. Our new review decodes how these cells survive—and how we can target them to stop recurrence for good. 👉 Read here:

🧬 New from the lab - we’ve uncovered how a key protein, NuMA, helps repair damaged DNA and protect important control regions of our genome, especially after oxidative stress—protecting the genome = protecting health. Read more:
cell.com
Abugable et al. investigated the role of ADP-ribosylation in NuMA function during DNA repair. They demonstrate that ADP-ribosylation-deficient NuMA impairs repair kinetics and transcription and fails...

@professor_dave I am sorry to hear this Dave. I am not surprised as this is one manifestation of the recent hypocrisy and double standard revealed to us all. I cannot believe we are in UK and 20th century.
