Translator is the knowledge-graph integration system we're developing to support hypothesis generation by scientists. Funded by NCATS.
As I said in the past, best consortium ever. Awesome people.

It was exciting to dig into all the new discoveries in long range gene regulation while writing this!
In this review @gracebower.bsky.social & I discuss recent evidence showing that, unlike canonical enhancers, long-range enhancers located hundreds of kb from their targets rely on additional mechanisms to ensure robust gene activation during mammal development. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Cell division in the developing embryo needs to be fast, but not sloppy. An illuminating paper on this topic, from the labs of Pablo Lara-Gonzalez and Arshad Desai (which my lab was privileged to help with) is in this issue of JCB. Also a spotlight article on our work by Boland and Kamenz!
Our November cover features a maximum projection of spinning disk confocal live image showing the movements of latex fluorescent microbeads beneath ex-vivo Kif6−/− mouse ependymal tissues. By Fang et al rupress.org/jcb/article/... JCB's Nov. Issue is here: rupress.org/jcb/issue/22...
