Every October, we celebrate science through the “Fête de la Science”, a popular public event that celebrates science, technology and innovation. It is open to all and helps promote the sharing of knowledge. This year, our Centre was involved in two visits.
Our visitors in the middle of an experiment!
Joseph and his kids, Axel and Maxence, discovered the immuno-labeling technique with Margherita.

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...
