    The long noncoding RNA SCHLAP1 has been reported to act by depleting the SWI/SNF complex from genomic sites, but new data show that SWI/SNF remains localized to chromatin in the presence of SCHLAP1, suggesting that SCHLAP1 may act independently of SWI/SNF.

    The genomes for essentially all worm parasites of humans are in hand thanks to a new study. Now we have to use them.

    Well-designed science education via social media may help to reach a larger group of audiences with the aim of reducing the boundaries between researchers and the public. This may, in turn, move basic science toward translational improvement in human health and agriculture.
