🔬 Our lab at Cambridge University is seeking to recruit an enthusiastic and skilled postdoc experienced in stem cell biology to investigate how cell size and cell cycle affect cell fate decisions in self-renewal/differentiation. Please email me if interested (zatulovskiylab.org).

I'm readvertising this Leverhulme funded PostDoc position in my group Oxford Biochemistry to investigate the potential for epigenetic change to contribute to evolution, using C. elegans as a model. Please DM or email me if you want to know more! my.corehr.com/pls/uoxrecruit…

Over 4 years in the making, I am excited to share our pre-print on the “In-cell structure and snapshots of copia retrotransposons in intact tissue by cryo-electron tomography”. We used cryo-ET to resolve the copia capsid structure to subnanometer resolution inside cells. A 🧵

Will we witness an AlphaFold moment for functional protein engineering and design? Will we solve the protein design problem — that is, the ability to create tailor-made functional proteins on demand — once and for all? go.nature.com/4bLthb0 rdcu.be/dy2d5

🚨New preprint alert!!🚨 I am delighted to share my first postdoc research paper on the interaction between transposable elements (TEs) and piRNAs in African cichlid fishes 🐠🐠 Link here: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Find the highlights in 🧵
