The right choice of materials and a commitment to sustainability are enabling advances in baking technology that not only reduce the impact on the environ-ment but also bring economic benefits to small craft businesses. A textile, PFAS-free, and reusable baking mat reduces waste, lowers energy consumption, and simplifies operational processes in areas that matter most to bakers every day. The team behind the BakeTex research project has been awarded this year’s Seifriz Transfer Prize and has been invited to present the project at the special show „Innovation Wins“ at the International Craft Fair in Munich from March 4 to 8,…

Muhammad A Shah, Emily L Denton, Cheryl H Arrowsmith, Mathieu Lupien and Matthieu Schapira Abstract Background The notion that epigenetic mechanisms may be central to cancer initiation and progression is supported by recent next-generation sequencing efforts revealing that genes involved in chromatin-mediated signaling are recurrently mutated in cancer patients. Results Here, we analyze mutational and transcriptional profiles from TCGA and the ICGC across a collection 441 chromatin factors and histones. Chromatin factors essential for rapid replication are frequently overexpressed, and those that maintain genome stability frequently mutated. We identify novel mutation hotspots such as K36M in histone H3.1, and uncover…
