Welcome to Delphine, new post-doc in the team!
Delphine joins the lab as a post-doctoral fellow. She completed her PhD at the Centre de Recherche en Cancérologie de Lyon (CRCL) under the supervision of Virginie Petrilli. Her doctoral work focused on the pro-inflammatory protein NLRP3, for which she highlighted a...
New research article on how chromatin marking governs DNA damage segregation in mitosis
In this paper, we uncover a damaged chromatin marking mechanism that drives the non-random segregation of UV damage through mitosis with potential consequences on daughter cell fate. Thus, we reveal that chromatin alterations impinge on genome stability not only by...
