Substantial Histone Reduction Modulates Genome-wide Nucleosomal Occupancy and Global Transcriptional Output. The recent wave of publications seem to continue, and a nother paper just appeared in PLoS Biology. Like the previous one. This one was in the reviewing rounds for very long, and so we are very happy that it finally appeared. Source: PLoS Biology Synopsis by Robin Mejia. Links to this post.

The Friedman Lab Chronicles. Starting a new lab in the middle of a research career. Tuesday, July 12, 2011. Getting a cover image for a journal. Was a first for me. As such I thought it would be interesting to revisit the behind the scenes. I am going for a short recap. This time Sigrid, came up with four initial concepts. The next concept was to replace stacks of papers with short strips, like fortunes (as in fortune cookies), and combine it with the vortex. Links to this post. We made the cover! The id...

The Friedman Lab Chronicles. Starting a new lab in the middle of a research career. Wednesday, August 29, 2012. Evolution of Transcription Factors Binding paper is accepted! Just got email that a paper by Naomi, Ilan Wapinski, Aviv Regev, Hanah Margalit and me was accepted to Molecular Systems Biology. This paper represents almost two years of work by Naomi and Ilan, and undergone several dramatic ups and down during this time. So it is great to hear that it is officially accepted.

The Friedman Lab Chronicles: A week of visitors
http://nirfriedmanlab.blogspot.com/2012/09/a-week-of-visitors.html
The Friedman Lab Chronicles. Starting a new lab in the middle of a research career. Monday, September 24, 2012. A week of visitors. This week we had several visitors to the lab. On Sunday we hosted a delegation from the Helmholtz Association. And the Director and Vice-Director of Research of the Max Delbruck Center. This visit was a an excuse for us to do a thorough cleanup day on Thursday last week. I think that since it was open the lab never was so clean. The cleanup included also out of sight...At th...

The Friedman Lab Chronicles. Starting a new lab in the middle of a research career. Monday, October 15, 2012. The last week was marked with farewell events to Naomi. It started on Tuesday with a trip and picnic. Since Naomi is (was) a joint student of both Hanah Margalit and myself, we had a trip with the two groups. After the trip we had a nice lunch in a forest. Daniela was the star of the event, sitting in the middle and checking the choice of food. Naomi at the start of the presentation. The blog aim...
