Brilliant talk by Samuel Bakhoum for the CIN Lecture series organized by Isidro Cortes-Ciriano and Florian Markowetz. I am half way around the world and amazed at the elegance of the cGAS-STING pathway that might one day render the CIN vulnerable to treatment. Plenty to think about

A wonderful reminder that my time spent comparing all the ecDNAs in organoids from the Rebecca Fitzgerald Lab added new insight to how we can use tumour organoids as a model to study ecDNA. The future of tumor organoids in precision therapy: Trends in Cancer cell.com/trends/cancer/…

Anyone else seeing Oxford Nanopore flowcells starting to "die" exactly around 72 hours? Could this be voltage control not being optimised for longer durations?
