How do chromatin remodelers use #IDRs to find their TF binding partners? Check out San’s tweetorial about SWI/SNF (cBAF) subunit ARID1A and β-catenin, now online at Mol Cell

🎥 Our @Harvard undergrad Yerosen Daba is running the Harvard College Instagram page today. Check out his story here: instagram.com/stories/harv... And learn what we do in the Farnung lab (and perhaps you get to meet the man, the myth, the legend aka Boltzmann too)! 📸⚡
First PhD candidate (congrats, Dr. James!) to graduate today and check out this beautiful nucleosome/ocean cake made for the occasion by PhD candidate Della Syau 🎂🍰
Congratulations to 🎓 Dr. Allison James 🎉. Allison is the first PhD candidate to graduate from the Farnung Lab!

Sending a mountain of gratitude to all the sponsors of the 2025 Timmerman Traverse, who helped our Everest Base Camp trekkers exceed their goal and raise nearly $800k for cancer research! 🏔 damonrunyon.org/news/entries/8…
This support is highly appreciated! From personal experience: Transatlantic cooperation is a pillar of the scientific enterprise!

Worth noting: 🇩🇪 invested 3.11% of GDP in R&D in 2023. The new 3.5% target for 2030 is only a marginal increase—and was already set for 2025. Ambition looks rather limited.

Interesting science goals from Germany’s new coalition agreement (CDU/CSU/SPD): 🇩🇪 100,000 GPU AI cluster 🌍 “1,000 minds” program for global talent 📜 Reform of fixed-term academic contracts 📈 3.5% of GDP for R&D by 2030 ⚛️ Target: First working fusion reactor to be built in 🇩🇪
