Molecular basis for Cdk1‐regulated timing of Mis18 complex assembly and CENP‐A deposition - 2017

Science Daily 

"Their findings shed light on the molecular processes that determine how and when key proteins combine, to help create a site required for accurate DNA separation over generations." 

Science Daily 

EurekAlert! 

"These findings provide valuable insights into how cells help preserve the site essential for equal distribution of their DNA when they divide, and how the timing of this process is tied to the cell cycle."

Structural basis for microtubule recognition by the human kinetochore Ska complex - 2014

The Times of India

"These findings in how the cells in our body are able to renew themselves could aid our understanding of health disorders, including cancer."

The Times of India

Business Standard

"Scientists have explained a key part of the process of cell division, by which cells are able to keep our organs functioning properly."

Business Standard

Science Daily

"[Scientists] discovered a set of proteins that stabilise the sequence of events in which cells duplicate their DNA and then separate into two new cells, each identical to the original."
