Very excited to share our work published in Nature Comms last week! Here we describe a range of cool things that can be done once you have the power to control deposition of H3K4me3…

CRISPR targeting of H3K4me3 activates gene expression and unlocks centromere-proximal crossover recombination in Arabidopsis
Nature Communications - Binenbaum et al. demonstrate that precise CRISPR-based targeting of a key chromatin mark (H3K4me3) can switch on genes, boost disease resistance, and unlock meiotic...

We’re excited to share a new CRISPR-Cas12 genome editing system, highly efficient across multiple brown algae species!
Brown algae transformation has been challenging despite many thoughtful approaches over the years.
We hope this one is kelpful 🌿😅

Tremendous bias.
Women make up only 16% of corresponding authors who submit to Nature, a new Springer Nature analysis revealed. This is not enough - there are 30-40% #womeninSTEM
We want to change it, through targeted editorial policies & outreach. But change will take everyone!

Gender equality in research publishing is a responsibility for everyone
A concerted effort is needed to support women in their choice of journal when submitting their manuscript.

Over on our blog, Digital Resources Manager Louisiane Ferlier takes a look at the history of women in the Royal Society library and finds they undoubtedly worked and studied there long before they became eligible for election to the Fellowship in 1945: royalsociety.org/blog/2025/04...

Women undoubtedly read and worked in the Royal Society library long before they became eligible for election to the Fellowship in 1945, as Louisiane Ferlier explains.
