Please register for our free online Symposium before the 08/12! Super hyped about how the line-up turned out! Thanks to The Drew Weissman Lab and Jim Al-Khalili for participating and congrats to the rest of the team for putting this together 😊

UK students year 10 to 13 can apply to work Diamond Light Source for the 2nd week of July! Deadline 18/2. diamond.ac.uk/Careers/Studen… It's such an awesome experience! I'll personally supervise the project "Crystal structure of an enzyme" 😀


I inherited some dissolved metals from Pete Smyth and I think they're very pretty 🤩 We use them for long cultures of bacteria, so they don't run out of metal ions when making our favourite proteins 😊



In this new Structural Biology paper the VMXi team with School of Life Sciences, University of Essex apply highly sample-efficient serial synchrotron crystallography from raster scans in crystallisation plates - for screening and structure determination!

New paper out today with my PhD group and Sofia_Jaho on Beamline I24 using radiation damage to drive reactions and make molecular movies of structural and spectroscopic changes in a nitrite reductase at different pHs. doi.org/10.1016/j.jmb.…


It was an honour to give a talk at the Gordon Research Conferences Tetrapyrroles this summer! Thanks to everyone who contributed to making it an amazing experience 😊 Miss you all!



Blink and you might miss it moving! The Hudson Robotics Scorpion is my current favourite instrument. It can make my 96 conditions (2D gradient of concentrations) in half an hour. And look SUPER COOL doing it! 😆 #crystallography Research Complex at Harwell
