Fascinating study by Serhiy Pankiv, @SimonsenAnne, Simonsen Lab, and colleagues reveals the role of BEACH-domain-containing proteins in cargo sorting at recycling and secretory tubular-vesicular compartments rupress.org/jcb/article/22…






Dr Louks, we support you. Last week, Cambridge PhD student Dr Ally Louks published this photo on X to celebrate passing her viva with no corrections. Her tweet went viral, attracting over 100 million views 🧵



We are excited to share pre-prints describing a successful foray into ML-driven protein design. With Rhys Grinter we designed proteins to potently inhibit CRISPR-Cas13 (doi.org/10.1101/2024.1…) or block heme piracy by pathogenic E. coli (doi.org/10.1101/2024.1…):




I am thrilled to announce that my project "Viral-induced neuronal fusion: Uncovering a new cause of neurological dysfunction" has been awarded a 3year NHMRC Ideas grant! Happy to finally be able to work on this exciting project and engage in exciting collaborations Queensland Brain Institute, UQ

The first paper of the year is here! The discovery of a new gene, OSP-1, that protects neurons from oxidative stress. I am honoured to be part of this beautiful discovery from the Hilliard Lab at Queensland Brain Institute, UQ. Herculean job from first author Alessandra Donato 🇮🇹. nature.com/articles/s4146…
