Great response so far for the DNA Repair Meeting in April 2026 ! 🧬 A few poster spots are still available. ✨ Early-bird registration extended to February 28th ✨ New invited speakers added: check the site: dnarepairmeeting-egmond2026.com Don’t miss this outstanding meeting!

The Supervisory Board appoints Thijn Brummelkamp as a Member of the Executive Board/Scientific Director of the NKI as of Dec 1, 2024, succeeding Ton Schumacher who served as an ad interim scientific director following René Medema's departure in April 2024: bit.ly/4fg0ZGm

Thrilled to share our new finding that the DUB USP37 suppresses rogue ubiquitylation and disassembly of stressed replisomes by TRAIP. Fantastic collaboration between Olga Kochenova in my lab and Giusi D’Alessandro in Steve Jackson’s lab! Read all about it: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

@FrogWalterLab Great work, thanks for sharing! If I wasn’t already following you I would definitely start now🤩

Excited to share (with my 8 followers) graduate student Ernst Schmid’s “SPOC” classifier, which can pick a good AlphaFold-Multimer prediction out of a crowd, and predictomes.org, a database of PPIs in the genome maintenance space. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

@FMattiroli @jervdberg @AlexandervanOu1 @groth_anja @vivekbhr Check this out! Amazing work from our great neighbors! A must read if you are interested in chromatin and how it is assembled.

Only one more week to apply! Come and join us at our amazing institute @_Hubrecht in the charming and centrally located city of Utrecht.

Are you interested in DNA replication, DNA repair or chromatin? Do you have a passion to find out how proteins function in these processes? Are you collaborative and ambitious? Check out these open positions in my lab (and @FMattiroli lab): hubrecht.eu/about-us/worki…

@YardimciLab @ScienceMagazine @DNA_topology Congratulations Hasan, great work👍👍

@KamenzLab @_Hubrecht @kind_jop @NWOFunding @oncodeinstitute @LUMC_Leiden Thanks Julia!

@PKnipscheer @_Hubrecht @kind_jop @NWOFunding @oncodeinstitute @LUMC_Leiden Congratulations Puck! Wonderful news!

Congratulations to Puck Knipscheer and @kind_jop, who have been awarded @NWOFunding Vici grants for their research on resolving dangerous DNA structures and the role of chromosome organization in determining cell identity respectively.

@Arnab_RC1 @_Hubrecht @kind_jop @NWOFunding Thanks Arnab!

@_Hubrecht @kind_jop @NWOFunding Congratulations @kind_jop and @PKnipscheer ! So well deserved!

@haicovanattikum @AniekJ @_Hubrecht @kind_jop @NWOFunding @oncodeinstitute @LUMC_Leiden Bedankt Haico!

@AniekJ @PKnipscheer @_Hubrecht @kind_jop @NWOFunding @oncodeinstitute @LUMC_Leiden Nogmaals gefeliciteerd, Puck!

@Tanejalab @_Hubrecht @kind_jop @NWOFunding Thanks Nitika!

@_Hubrecht @kind_jop @NWOFunding Congratulations, @PKnipscheer & @kind_jop!! 🥂

@BenVanHouten2 What a shock to hear Ben, i wish you all the best and hope you will recover soon!

Dear Friends: I just suffered a major heart attack on Feb 11, and if it wasn't for the rapid response of medics, UPMC ER, and Dr. Domat's excellent care in the cat lab, I wouldn't be able to write this Tweet of gratitude for the many kind words of support I have received.

@BenVanHouten2 It was great to have you as our guest and to hear about your amazing science, thanks Ben!

Thanks Puck Knipscheer and your awesome group for hosting me today at the Hubrecht Institute. Having the King drop by was incredible! I had an absolutely fabulous day discussing science.

The Hubrecht Institute has openings for junior and senior group leaders. It's open to any discipline in life sciences. The Hubrecht is truly one of the best places in the world to start your lab, so apply! hubrecht.eu/job/tenure-tra…

Are you interested in doing a PhD in our lab in Amsterdam to discover ‘hidden’ biology using #genetics? The application deadline of the #PhDprogram at the Netherlands Cancer Institute bit.ly/44iOcOc ends on the 3rd of September!

If you are interested in an update on G-quadruplex (G4) structure resolution @QuadruplexPape1, check out our review in the special issue of DNA repair on genome maintenance @DNArepair. Many thanks to Koichi Sato @KoichiS0813 who did most of the work. authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S15…
