I’m delighted to share that @ThomasLhr1, @gogulan_k, and I are launching @bindresearch, a UK-based not-for-profit research startup to deliver publicly–available tools and datasets to make intrinsically disordered proteins druggable. 🍝 💊🧲 💻 🦠

Found out that 2 of my PhD students @LS_Newton and Linran Wang went to the @UCLInfectImm PhD colloquium yesterday, and won prizes for their poster/talk without any input from me whatsoever. Very well done. Really impressive. Independence training is effective!

PhD position- come join us!
Interested in how emerging viruses overcome our frontline defence, the innate immune system? We’re looking for someone enthusiastic and motivated to join our growing team.
Please share!

I have an international PhD studentship available for next year @sheffielduni in @MCB_Sheffield with @alicepyne and @BoultonLab. If you're interested in using single-molecule tools to understand how Shelterin safeguards telomeres - get in touch! 🧬 findaphd.com/phds/projectdet…

So pleased to share this paper from my time @cosmochemlab @UofAlabama ☄️🌍
Hugely grateful to such supportive and knowledgeable co-authors 🙌
❔How might environments change cosmic dust - and do these tiny rocks tell the story of their surroundings? 👇
Nanoscale carbonaceous matter found in the weathering rims on micrometeorites. An exciting paper by Mark Boyd making micrometeorites a potential litmus for environmental change.

Mob handed with @Jolly_lab at @cshlmeetings retroviruses. Had a fantastic meeting. Have a great trip home everyone.
Great talk from @LS_Newton at @cshlmeetings retroviruses. Thanks to David Selwood’s lab @ucl for chemistry and everyone at the meeting for their interest in our cyclophilin targeting PROTACs

Having a good time with the @towerslab & @Jolly_lab crews at the @cshlmeetings #cshlretro @LS_Newton @akreuschl @matthewVXwhelan

The lab is having a great time @cshlmeetings #cshlretro!
Our very talented PhD student Taylor is presenting his work in tonight's poster session! Do not miss poster # 126!

Yassss a page is turned, thesis submitted!! Can't believe these three years have gone so fast. Just a bit disappointed that I can't hold the kilograms of paper in my hands, like in the old times ;)

Had fantastic fun @GayhurstE8 this week talking to the kids about STEM and viruses. Thanks to @janesheps and @johnwalterart for artistic inspiration and @LS_Newton and @ZiqiZhou13 and the rest of the crew for help. 🦠🦠🦠🎨🎨🎨✍️✍️✍️
Fun afternoon doing outreach at @GayhurstE8 school with @towerslab. Here we are demonstrating the aerosol transmission of respiratory viruses such as SARS-CoV-2. The kids at the front blow into talcum powder and within a few minutes you can smell it from the back of the room!

Come join us for a PhD as we try to understand how telomeres protect the end of chromosomes! 🧬 We’ll train you in single-molecule biophysics using AFM and optical tweezers with the opportunity to take findings all the way from the single-molecule to in vivo phenotypes.
We have an international PhD studentship available for next year with @BoultonLab and @M_D_Newton! If you're interested in using single-molecule tools to understand how Shelterin safeguards telomere structure and stability - please get in touch! 🧬🔬🥳

Come and check out my poster (#19): Fully synthetic macrocyclic PROTACs selectively degrade cyclophilin A and inhibit HIV-1 replication #LondonInfectImmun @TheCrick

Interested to learn—via a cute animated clip—how SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern have evolved to better antagonize innate immunity? Watch this awesome video by @rmkaake and @LorenaZAlvarez in @KroganLab @QBI_UCSF about our recent publication linked in 🧵youtu.be/vdU2aBZZN-c

Day 1 of research #fieldwork in #Italy 🇮🇹
A difficult day for Colin the dinosaur 🦖, as we searched for the K/Pg impact layer - rocks that show evidence of an impactor that wiped out the dinosaurs (except one)...
