Oh la la! 😎 what an exciting preprint from a great scientist and friend :) I'd recommend a deep dive but if you don't have time, have a look at the blue-torial below!
🧬 What if your blood cells remembered how their ancestors divided?

Our new preprint (www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...) explores clonal memory in human blood stem cells — and how it breaks down in leukaemia.

Some good-ish news from NIH

“Federal Register notices for study sections run by CSR (but not those by ICs) will start being permitted again”

As far as I know, the timing for this is not clear, but I will be checking the Federal Register.
