We just realised DNAscent v4.2.1 which features the new executable meIODy (pronounced "melody") that measures inter-origin distance (IOD) from DNAscent data. This was developed by our undergraduate Part II Pathology student Olivia Mei, hence "meIODy" is a portmanteau of Mei, IOD, and melody. IOD, the genomic distance between fired replication origins, is an important marker of DNA replication stress. When cells experience obstacles to fork progression (which may be from oncog

Our postdoc Francisco Berkemeier has been appointed College Research Associate (CRA) at Emmanuel College, University of Cambridge.
