It’s the end of an era as we say farewell today to James, who has been our facility manager for the last 15 years. Here he is “passing the quadrupole” onto Tom who be taking on the challenge of managing the facility. Farewell James and all the best - we will miss you!

We're thoroughly enjoying our time at Festival of Biologics! David Brockwell delivered an engaging talk yesterday about a directed evolution screen we use in our lab, sparking some thought-provoking conversations. Don't miss the opportunity to check out Conor's poster today at p158!

Are you looking for a funded PhD with a focus on industrial need? We have a iCASE studentship with a large biopharmaceutical company to use directed evolution to facilitate the production of target proteins using our beta-lactamase assay. Details at: findaphd.com/phds/project/w…

From winning the Colworth Medal in 1996 to an OBE in 2020, we're delighted to announce Professor Sheena Radford as the winner of the 2025 Centenary Award! RadfordLab uses a multidisciplinary approach to explore the delineation of the mechanisms by which proteins fold or misfold.
