Aurkines could spark a new era in fighting resistant cancers
Aurkines cause rampant DNA double-strand breaks, spark apoptosis, and curb growth in both naïve and resistant tumours in mice

John Gurdon, former Group Leader and Head of @cellbiol-mrclmb.bsky.social has died.
Despite calling himself a "total non-intellectual” his work to reprogramme somatic cells to pluripotent stem cells transformed the field of developmental biology.

Breaking News: Jane Goodall, one of the world’s most revered conservationists, died at 91. Her discoveries in the 1960s about how chimpanzees behaved in the wild broke new ground and represented what was called “one of the Western world’s great scientific achievements.” nyti.ms/42kpGxt

What a terrific recognition of our research field!
Dirk Görlich (Max Planck Institute Göttingen) and Steven McKnight (UT Southwestern) received the Lasker Award for their work on low-complexity domains and their phase separation.
