We’re hiring! We have Wellcome-funded postdoc positions to join my group. The project will build on recent work on transcriptional cell size scaling (Swaffer et al. Cell 2023) to ask how gene expression, RNA metabolism and cell signalling are all coordinated with cell size (1/3)

Second: We removed the SMC proteins via a clever Knock-down mutant created by @Gruber_Lausanne , and observed that the chromosomes gradually open up into a toroidal/donut shape… SMCs are the sole factor holding this megabase chromosome in the crescent shape🤩 9/13
