Chromosome segregation errors are common in the early stages of human embryonic development. Read here our open access commentary on three recent studies of spindle architecture and positioning features that could provide insights into why early embryos are predisposed to aneuploidy. rdcu.be/d1TgG

A new preprint from our group in collaboration with @jvhooff.bsky.social and @eelcotromer.bsky.social. We discovered that trypanosomes have (a zombie of) Bub1-Bub3 despite the fact that tryps do not have a canonical spindle checkpoint! This is a team work involving Dan, WillC, Midori and Patryk
