It has been an honour to host University of Oxford's chatrin on her Scotland 🏴 tour's 1st stop in Dundee. We had many activities and reunited CRUK Scotland Inst alumni Ilaria Puoti and Helge. Very exciting work on #ubiquitin ADP-ribose from her PhD & postdoc work. Nice late night walk on the sea



A very well deserved winner for this month's Eco Heroes Award- our very own Saroj Saurya who wins our sustainability champion (individual). There's no denying Saroj leads and encourages others to adopt sustainable practices Dunn_School (now @DunnSchool.bsky.social) .


Edel Pérez-López seriously there is NOTHING WRONG with saying that a manuscript is fine as it is and does not need further changes! I think half the problem with peer review is that we all feel under pressure to find flaws, however minor, to show we are doing our jobs.


The Smith Lab Dunn_School (now @DunnSchool.bsky.social) wins September's Eco Heroes Award for effectively reducing their energy footprint by optimising freezer use. Well done to the whole group! Award presented at the monthly Dunn drinks which was held by the Carvalho and Hassan labs.
