Interested in membrane protein structure, folding, interactions and function? We're looking for a creative, talented post-doc to join our bacterial outer membrane team @RadfordLab @naranson in the @AstburyCentre, on a new @The_MRC programme grant.

Installation and training on our new Dianthus from @NanoTemper
Binding assays especially for tricky systems - membrane proteins, multi-molecular complexes and small molecule libraries.
Many thanks @The_MRC for funding.

This one has been a long time in the making… I’m really proud of a stunning paper (IMO!) but much more proud of a stunning team who made it possible @milkowilko @AstburyCentre @Astbury_BSL @RadfordLab @CellPressNews doi.org/10.1016/j.cell.2023.…

Just in time for Christmas! Excited to see our fibril structures published, showing changing polymorphism of IAPP during the course of amyloid assembly. As always, brilliant team effort from the amyloid team, thanks all @AstburyCentre @naranson

I’m gutted to miss @alessiociulli today, but it’s very bad form for the @AstburyCentre director to share his chest infection with the speaker and the whole centre!
Looking forward to visiting the @AstburyCentre to give the Astbury seminar and catching up with many colleagues and friends especially @FrankSobott @UoDCeTPD
Absolutely thrilled to see this out at last in @NatureChemistry, and looking forward to more exciting discoveries with Jon and friends thanks to brand new funding from @The_MRC. Watch this space for a stellar postdoc opportunity next year. @RadfordLab @AstburyCentre
Super proud of this paper now out on Nature Chemistry by Jon Machin nature.com/articles/s41557-0…. Great work Jon!! Post docs in our OMP team available- come and join us! postdocjobs.com/posting/7196…
Lovely bit of work. Congrats Sofia, Sjors and team... I had the privilege of being external examiner for her thesis and saw this beautiful work a few months ago.
I'm still very jealous!

Want to understand how the β-barrel assembly machinery works & solve amazing cryoEM structures like this one? There is a fully funded project to join the @naranson and @RadfordLab labs in Oct 2024 via the @BBSRCWhiteRose. Apply by Jan 7th! @AstburyCentre shorturl.at/iOQZ3
A bumper crop of stellar PhDs today with Dr Brockhaus, Dr @haysom_samuel and Dr @JBR_White graduating. Very proud of you all. What a privilege to work with such amazing talented people! @AstburyCentre

And here is the finalised paper nature.com/articles/s41594-0…
again, super work from @oxkawaka , Dr Jo Parker & Dr Gabriel Kuteyi - go team!
Currently in Sancerre, on a vineyard drinking Sancerre. Life is very good… #CharmedLife
Afternoon off from my ATiP-Avenir grant panel (not in Swindon!) #AcademicLife
Well that's a great and difficult question! (
1) Have a great story...
(2) Speak to a professional! We worked with
@jeroen_claus from @phospho biomedical animation. Who I can't recommend highly enough

(6) A major challenge for me at least is dealing with tension between scientific accuracy, artistic license/vision and accessibility.
Are you making a graphical abstract, a work of art or an infographic? Which compromises are you going to make (because you WILL make some)!
