🧬🧬🧬 Join us this Wednesday, June 3rd for exciting talks from three early career chromatin/transcription researchers: Mark Geisler, @jcornwallscoones.bsky.social, and @sidujain.bsky.social!

⚡New preprint from the lab⚡: A key early checkpoint in gene expression is promoter proximal pausing of RNA polymerase II. For over 20 years, we as field have not been able to recreate pausing under realistic cellular conditions. @robertovn.bsky.social shows that ELOF1 is the missing piece.
One, perhaps two, of our postdocs are moving on to faculty positions this year (more news soon!). While they're truly irreplaceable, it does mean that we have openings for new members to join our team studying #cilia. If interested, please apply: academicpositions.harvard.edu/postings/15526
What is the role of #poison-exon in regulating splicing factors in stem cells and development? Check out new work from Nathan Leclair and Mattia Brugiolo and many others in my lab @jax.org #RNA #splicing www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
Yale MB&B's Karla Neugebauer and Guillermina Kubaczka have been featured in a new @natmethods.nature.com piece 🌍🔬
The article spotlights researchers bridging the molecular and planetary scales to address global health challenges.

🚨 New preprint: GATO-seq did it again! ELOF1 is the missing promoter-proximal factor that confers RNA Pol II resistance to TFIIF. Including ELOF1, DSIF, and NELF in GATO-seq reactions recapitulates promoter-proximal pausing in vitro at physiological conditions for the 1st time.
