So excited this is now out in @ScienceAdvances. We discover a hidden satellite DNA array that barcodes mouse chromosome 7 and recruits KRAB-ZFP819 to remodel chromatin and regulate exit from totipotency. Spearheaded by @Liane_F_ , thanks to all involved..

Extra spicy ramen lab lunch on a hot day. For no particular reason but it works out as a great social event and motivational boost 🫕!
