- More details to come at tinyurl.com/mpr88zed
- Mini-symposium to celebrate Prof Alan Fairlamb's achievements!
Being cartographers of parasite surfaces, at molecular, functional and fitness levels, we’ve enjoyed reading this series of papers on data collection to atlas integration and beyond.

Replying to @BakariSoale
@BakariSoale & Cat are enjoying the Career Development Fellowship welcome event at the @royalsociety: 3 days of science talks, networking workshop, library tours, video interviews and delicious vegetarian meals.
A fantastic start for a 4-year postdoctoral fellowship.
The scheme is a pilot, closed for this year, but more information can be found here: royalsociety.org/grants/care…
We very much enjoyed Alex Cook’s visit yesterday. He shared with us his latest work with @ParasiteMatt
and Mark Carrington on the mechanisms by which ISG65 and C3 recognise and interact with each other. Check his piece in Trends below.
Drs Alexander Cook, Mark Carrington & @parasitematt discuss #trypanosomes & #complement: more than one way to die? @BiochemOxford @KavliOxford @UniofOxford @CamBiochem @Cambridge_Uni #ISG65 #C3

Congratulations to Majeed! He’s been awarded a Royal Society Career Development Fellowship to decode the mechanism of antigenic variation in Trypanosoma vivax.

Applications for the Royal Society's Career Development Fellowships open next week on 24 September. This scheme aims to support the retention in STEM of researchers from underrepresented backgrounds. If you're interested in applying, sign up to our upcoming webinar for prospective applicants: #RSGRants royalsociety.org/grants/care…
Woohoo! It’s back (hopefully for good). Thank you David Roos, @omartheharb, @veupathdb and the generous donors who have made it possible.
Welcome back! VEuPathDB resources are back online today! We will continue to provide bioinformatics services under a new organizational structure. Read more here: veupathdb.org/veupathdb/app/…

Yet another dull day in the boring life of some research scientists. Epic end of conference party at #mpm2024. If your parties are not like this you are in the wrong field and should study parasites!
Woods Hole triple bill for the GadLab: #KMCB2024, #MPM2024 and sandwiched in between @YIPS_2024. We presented the latest in DRiF-Seq technology, its applications in quorum sensing, and how we’ve tamed Trypanosoma vivax into a model system.
Intense 2 weeks in WH, eased by @coffee0o, @pie_inthesky, and the daily morning runs along the beach, instigated by @omartheharb, @parasitesrule.
Yesterday @gina_amensah completed the one million step challenge over the summer to fundraise for diabetes research. Check out her page: step.diabetes.org.uk/fundrai…

Delighted to share our preclinical data on an improved blood-stage #malaria #vaccine candidate targeting RH5 now published @CellRepMed. Congrats to Lloyd King @UniofOxford and big thanks to our generous collaborators and partners. cell.com/cell-reports-medici…

After a week of hiking in the Swiss Alps, I came back to this amazing news. I am thrilled and honored to have been elected as an EMBO member this year. I will do my best to give it back.
