Really great day in the lab yesterday for Tavi's successful PhD viva. Well done Dr. Olson and thanks Max and @marstonlab.bsky.social for examining.
Join us in Nottingham in September for the UK DNA replication meeting 🧬. Super EarlyBird deadline today and abstract deadline in 1 month. www.eventsforce.net/biochemsoc/f...
SAVE THE DATE! The next EMBO | EMBL Symposium on 'DNA replication and genome maintenance: from basic biology to disease' will be held October 20-23, 2026.
Organized by Helle Ulrich (IMB), Johannes Walter (Harvard) and Anja Groth (Danish Cancer Institute).
