New preprint in collab with Capelson & Schindler labs):
Nuclear pore complexes are developmentally removed and rebuilt during oocyte specification. Blocking turnover prevents gene silencing and meiotic entry.
Nuclear architecture renewal is required for cell fate.

Our new paper reveals critical new regulators of stem cell differentiation that control where the right kinds of cells are made in planarians.
In particular, we find Anosmin—a gene responsible for Kallmann Syndrome—as a restrictor of neurogenesis.
