🚨Calling all Postdocs working in diabetes and endocrine research🚨 Join us for this immersive week of lectures from field leaders, presenting your own research and discussing the issues facing postdocs today on the beautiful island of Bornholm! Abstract submission below!

Dr Megan Clapperton, officially now on paper 📜🗞️ 🎓

Women are born with all their oocytes, which need to stay viable for decades to ensure fertility. How are they maintained for that long? Our latest research in Nature Cell Biology reveals that oocyte maintenance involves exceptional protein longevity. nature.com/articles/s4155… (1/9)

Oxygen Microenvironments in E. coli Biofilm Nutrient Transport Channels: Insights from Complementary Sensing Approaches biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… #biorxiv_micrbio

My first (& first, first author!!) pre-print is now available on BioRxiv🎉🎉 🎉 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Check out this fantastic opportunity in the McDole lab here at the LMB. Right at the interface of imaging and development!

The sunshine and warmth of the south of England is pretty nice. HOWEVER, the sheer number of spiders in my house is not ok.

Pier Andrée Penttilä (@MRC_LMB Flow Cytometry facility), Rose Morag Hunter (AstraZeneca) and I are looking for a postdoctoral scientist to develop a multispectral light-sheet imaging flow cytometer and apply this to phenotypic cell sorting: nature.com/naturecareers/…

I've now made a few small changes to our parameter-free deconvolution code to better handle low SNR data, and to add MIPs to the notebook so you have a feeling for the results without needing to download images from Google Drive. x.com/JamesDManton/s…

Super excited to share our latest work on the native in-cell organization of the mitochondrial respiratory chain 🥳 Using cryo-electron tomography🔬, we show how the respiratory complexes (and other complexes) are organized inside native mitochondria!  biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Big congrats to Akaash Kumar Akaash Kumar who emerged as our Early Career Award-winner! 👏👏👏🔬🔬🔬 A tough job for our judges after such a brilliant range of talks from our shortlisted speakers. #microscopy #EarlyCareer

Very proud to have won the Early Career Award from the RMS! Had a great day at the AGM and heard some fantastic talks! Science is a team effort so thanks to James Manton @DeriveryLab Kerrie McNally Dr Megan Clapperton (she/her)🇪🇺 and our collaborators (as well as my wife/family)!

BREAKING NEWS The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2024 #NobelPrize in Chemistry with one half to David Baker “for computational protein design” and the other half jointly to Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper “for protein structure prediction.”

2024 #NobelPrize laureate in chemistry David Baker has succeeded with the almost impossible feat of building entirely new kinds of proteins. In recent years, one incredible protein creation after the other has emerged from Baker’s laboratory. They range from new nanomaterials

Thanks to The Royal Society and @MRC_LMB, Buzz Baum's Lab and I are looking for a student to develop the next generation of fluorescent proteins for live and super-resolution imaging, as part of the LMB's four-year PhD programme. www2.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/students/inter…
