Thanks Suomen Akatemia | Research Council of Finland for the vote of confidence! Now it's on us to reveal new routes of gene control by transcriptional CDKs and to exploit this against cancer. Thanks to my team and collabs McManus Lab @ UCSF Anniina Vihervaara Caroline Friedel Heidi Haikala Juha Klefström TangLab

A comprehensive review by Ivan D’Orso on mechanisms regulating HIV-1 proviral transcription and strategies of exploiting the knowledge for reactivating and eliminating the latent reservoir. Congrats!


Take a pause and listen what the pediatric intensive care and humanitarian physician Tanya Haj-Hassan of MSF International had to say at the first-ever panel on Palestinian human rights at the 2024 Democratic National Convention in Chicago on the devastating suffering she witnessed in #Gaza hospitals #FreePalestine

Research Council of Finland has another call for inviting researchers from Ukraine to Finland. Will Suomen Akatemia | Research Council of Finland stand by its academic and moral principles and commit to open a call for Palestinian researchers fleeing the genocide and destruction in #Gaza and the #WestBank?

Our review about CDK11 is out in Trends Cell Biology now. We discuss evolution of CDK11 - SF3B1 axis and its role in pre-mRNA splicing. We also summarize how CDK11 and its inhibition affect transcription and cell cycle progression. Free access here: authors.elsevier.com/a/1jjxs3QxxSux…

Still digesting the landmark #Draghireport, but great to see the emphasis on R&I. Very happy with proposal to double support to ground-breaking fundamental research via the European Research Council! And the stance on preserving the ERC's independence. commission.europa.eu/topics/strengt…
