An academic conundrum: When you're so busy doing things that should go on your CV that you can't seem to find time to actually put them on your CV.

Structures of GluK2 kainate receptor in complex with spermine and polyamine-containing toxins elucidate the trapping mechanism of channel block and provide a template for designing new drugs. Shanti Pal Gangwar Maria Karela Laura Yen Maria Kurnikova nature.com/articles/s4146…

Indian gov't is buying a subscription to 13,000 academic journals, and then making them all available to "18 million students, faculty, and researchers" for free. The cost is $715 million over 3 years. It includes Elsevier, Nature, and AAAS. Have any other countries done this?

I’m looking for a motivated postdoc to join my lab with a structural biology background. Reach out to me if you are interested in the structure-function studies of actin cytoskeleton and membrane repair processes.

Excellent!! science.org/content/articl…

Apply for PhD program in our department. Lots of exciting projects. Only two more days left! Repost for better outreach!

Great opportunity for a co-op at Vertex San Diego in the protein sciences team. Reach-out to me very soon PhD students with structural biology backgrounds are highly encouraged to apply. vrtx.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/Vertex_c…

Smooth, effortless, and lovely to watch! Sushila Meena’s bowling action has shades of you, zaheer khan. Do you see it too?

We are looking for a Postdoc fellow who can contribute to membrane protein structure and function using electrophysiology, cellular assays and cryoEM to investigate novel signalling mechanisms. Please RT

It is Faculty interview season, so I created a doc with compiled Chalk Talk advice! Please share widely- this shouldn't be hidden curriculum... there is a recipe for success! I will also share videos of my practice and actual UCSD chalk talk with anyone who wants it! DM me!

The February EpIC seminar is tomorrow, 4 February, at 12:00 pm Eastern for a fascinating story told by Dr. Ed Twomey (Johns Hopkins University) about modulation of ionotropic glutamate receptors. As ever, registration is free and all are welcome. sgp-epic-seminars.com

My daily reminder

Pleased to share our work on a cancer target METTL3 just published in @elife: Structure of METTL3-METTL14 with an m6A nucleotide reveals insights into m6A conversion and sensing doi.org/10.7554/eLife.… thanks The Welch Foundation and NIAID for supporting research in my lab!
