Sharing this very sad news. Greg influenced many beyond his lab and across fields. This is a very nice write up from CRUK-CI highlighting what he meant to many of us. Thank you for putting into words what many of us can't right now.

Bacteria deactivate the protein synthesis of host cells to hamper immune reactions. This insight could aid in the development of more resistant plants.

Greg was already a world-renowned scientist when appointed Director, and for the community, he was a visionary leader, a cherished mentor, and a singular force of nature whose influence shaped the research landscape.
I wanted to share my new Spotlight in @cp-trendsgenetics.bsky.social that highlights a terrific paper linking gene body methylation with noise in gene expression:
