An absolute must-read! The labs of @elphegenoralab.bsky.social and Leonid Mirny establish cohesin bridging as a central mode of enhancer-promoter communication. Great paper!
TODAY! 👇
Johannes Stein's new lab at the MPIMG will use microscopy to study the organization of the genome at a molecular level. We talked to him about how, despite being a trained physicist, he ended up in biology, the potential of his research and the power of interdisciplinary teams. @jmstein.bsky.social
Great collaboration with the lab of Edouard Bertrand, with important contributions from Benoît Lelandais, Marie-Cécile Robert, Michael Szalay, and Jean-Yves Tinevez. Thanks a lot to all.

Happy to share our new review on 3D chromatin organisation by cohesin with you. It was a great pleasure to review recent advances and future prospects with @danielgerlich.bsky.social.
Johannes Stein joined the MPIMG in 2025. His lab will use state-of-the-art microscopy techniques to examine the organisation of the genome at a molecular level. We talked to him about how, despite bei...
We are looking for a Postdoc at the Center for Gene Expression in Copenhagen. Deadline for applications is the 11th of January. If you are interested in 3D chromatin, SMC complexes, and super-resolution microscopy, join us. www.nature.com/naturecareer...
Are you a DNMT3 enthusiast wondering how they achieve specificity at CpG islands during development? And why is DNMT3B specifically required for methylation on the inactive X?
We set out to dissect the mechanism, now published in Genes & Development

Live-cell fluorescence microscopy and polymer simulations in human HCT116 cells show similar cohesin density, residence times and extrusion speed across multiple genomic regions.

Why can't we explain enhancer action despite 2 decades of chromosome conformation technologies? 😬
Our new study spearheaded by Leonid Mirny's group points to a flaw in our assumptions, and to a solution from physical principles
