Our collaboration with Ahmet Yildiz's lab to reverse the direction of dynein is now out nature.com/articles/s4158… A project I started in 2005 as a "safe project" because dynein crystallization was being a bit slow...

Excited to share our "turbulent spindle" paper which just came out. Congrats to Christina Hueschen, Vahe and Meelad -- fun to work with Rob Phillips' group on this! Current Biology cell.com/current-biolog…

STEM faculty who believe ability is fixed have larger racial achievement gaps and inspire less student motivation in their classes advances.sciencemag.org/content/5/2/ea…

Well deserved, Jeff!!!

Congratulations Matt Newton for your 2nd #CRISPR paper Mechanical distortion of DNA structure induces off-target activity A collaboration with AstraZenecaUK LUMICKS Lenhard group youtu.be/rjJAKFKSi2Y nature.com/articles/s4159… Imperial Medicine MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (LMS) Medical Research Council NatureStructMolBiol

Cas9 binds off-target when DNA slightly distorted! Great work on NatureStructMolBiol by David Rueda, Matt Newton Lenhard group & AstraZenecaUK! The paper here: go.nature.com/2SrB6bR youtube.com/watch?time_con…

Our first paper in 2019 is now published: mdpi.com/2218-273X/9/2/… as a cover story. This study reveals how molecular crowding impacts the dynamics of ribonucleoprotein droplets, which function as membranes organelles in cells. Congratulations to Taran and Ibraheem and the team!
