1/ I've been waiting too long to share this. variability refinement allows to refine an ensemble of PDBs in an ensemble of maps from 3DVA CryoSPARC or multibody ref. in @RELION. #cryoEM. Available in Phenix

Last chance to apply for one of these bacteriophage #PhDposition I am offering in collaboration with Prof. Fred Antson Biology at York YSBL. Opportunities to study structural, molecular, genetic and evolutionary aspects of viruses of microbes.

Seeking scientist volunteers! Want to practice science communication and help author a ✨comic✨ about your research? I need collaborators for this spring's cohort of SciComm & Comics art students! Please share widely. #STEMeducation #Science #sciart

👇🏼My Husband Sam is looking for new positions in the UK👇🏼, he is a brilliant scientist and would thrive in any #industry position that needs a skilled and enthusiastic #chemist! Share & DM with information about jobs⚛️Thanks for your support! #JobHunting linkedin.com/posts/samuel-n…

Magnetic Isolation and Concentration (MagIC)-cryo-EM is a new method to enable direct structural analysis of targets captured on nanomagnetic beads, which requires only 0.0005 mg/mL of targets in 100 µL crude solution to make 10 cryo-EM grids. I will explain the magic behind it!

You can't find a better Postdoc opportunity anywhere else! Fantastic mentor and amazing science!

We present a preprint about a “stargate” mechanism of the capsid opening required for genome delivery in members of the Microviridae family. See below for a short manuscript summary (1/9). biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We present DRGN-AI for fast, ab initio cryo-EM reconstruction! * learns a neural field from unposed images, * designed for single-shot reconstruction of unfiltered datasets, * finds new states missed by prior approaches! Teamwork led by Ellen Zhong drgnai.cs.princeton.edu 1/

In the USA in 1943 they produced a film 'Don't be a Sucker' about fascism. It perfectly explains Nigel Farage, Suella Braverman, Tommy Robinson and the entire Right. x.com/GreeneyOfficia…

🧵one of my favorite tools: Foldseek (1/7) We have traced the evo of species by comparing their proteins. We use models that assign a %similarity between seqs and confidently infer that 2 proteins are homologous if share ≥25% SeqSim. But what happens when it’s less than this?

Very happy to have played a part in this study, great to see it out in preprint form. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Check out our new preprint (biorxiv.org/content/10.110…) describing widespread bacterial DNA packaging by #bacteriophages and gene transfer agents (GTA) in the human gut #microbiome. Many thanks to Paul CM Fogg, Jason wilson, Pavol Bardy, and @colinhillucc for collaborating with us.

We have a fascinating preprint just out, revealing the widespread packaging of bacterial genomic DNA into capsids in the human gut:bit.ly/3B2ajza. Major denizens of the #microbiome implicated with broad potential impact on bacterial evolution and horizontal gene transfer
