New link between gene transcription and aging: study shows that endogenous DNA damage causes stalling of the 40% (!!) of elongating RNA polymerases in the aging mouse liver. Downstream changes of gene expression affect many of known "anti-aging" pathways.

Genome-wide RNA polymerase stalling shapes the transcriptome during aging - Nature Genetics

In aging mouse livers, 40% of elongating RNA polymerases are stalled, biasing transcriptional output dependent on gene length. This transcriptional stress appears to be caused by endogenous DNA damage.

Excited to share the first paper from my lab. We show that condensates composed of the disordered region of MED1 selectively partition specific functionally related proteins from a complex mixture of biomolecules, regulating gene activation. Free link: https://authors.elsevier.com/a/1gMr6L7PXiqyW

Study of faculty searches at R1 university finds committees consider women's—but not men's—relationship status in hiring. Women w/ high-status partners were considered not 'movable' & excluded from offers when there were male or single female alternatives.https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/0003122417739294
