It was a great pleasure to have ⁦George Christophides⁩ at Nottingham telling us all about gene drive in transmission zero for controlling malaria transmission.⁦David Guttery⁩ ⁦Ryuji Yanase⁩

Spring is here ⁦Uni of Nottingham #WeAreUoN⁩

Our study looking at sporozoite development and salivary gland invasion using expansion microscopy is now up as a pre-print! Happy reading, detailed thread over on the blue place Sabrina Absalon @JVR_Lab Pharmacology Toxicology biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Many congratulations Sabrina and the team. Well done.

We are pleased to welcome Dr. Mohammad Zeeshan Zeeshan to CSIR-CDRI as Senior Scientist in the Molecular Microbiology & Immunology Division! His extensive experience in malaria biology and host-pathogen interactions will be invaluable to CDRI's research initiatives.

Many congratulations Sachin and to the the team. Great going.

Wow Bipin and Malcolm. Many congratulations to you and the teams. We need to celebrate when I am in Nottingham. Enjoy the success.

Congratulations to the team. Nice work.

In eLife - the journal: A novel SUN1-ALLAN complex coordinates segregation of the bipartite MTOC across the nuclear envelope during rapid closed mitosis in Plasmodium berghei doi.org/10.7554/eLife.…. Out today. If you are at @biomalpar then happy to show the poster on it.

Thanks Sabrina

Check out this amazing special issue of Current Biology . The editorial from Joe Heitman nicely sets the scene and there are some spectacular reviews from many mycologists. I am glad to have been part of this, including in the 'MyShroom' section! cell.com/current-biolog…

We are looking for motivated and enthusiastic research fellow to join our group to investigate on #ERC project on cell division in malaria parasite. Job Vacancy at the University of Nottingham: Research Associate/Fellow (fixed term) jobs.nottingham.ac.uk/MED145725.

Our latest story describes the amazing evolutionary battle between malaria parasite and human. The parasite evolved RIFINs to bind inhibitory KIR receptors and suppress immune cell function while humans have activating KIR receptors to bind these RIFINs to kill parasites!

Very nice and interesting findings Simone and team.

New pre-print! Ryan Kim et al distinguish the roles of the Spindle Assembly Checkpoint as a surveillance pathway only triggered by mitotic errors vs a mitotic timer that is required in every cell division. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We leverage a separation-of-function allele for Cdc20 eliminating the checkpoint activity of its full-length translational isoform. Using functional genetics, we find synthetic lethality with cell division genes and increased anaphase errors consistent with a surveillance role.
