Oleksiy Kovtun’s work on structures and interactions of AP2 and clathrin within coated vesicles, now posted on bioRxiv. Collaboration with Veronica KaneDickson, Bernard Kelly and David Owen at The CIMR. Work done at @MRC_LMB & EMBL. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Thread: 1) OK, so I promised to explain the manuscript that we just put on medRxiv medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

Extremely happy to share our work with Ben Schuler on disordered proteins and the nucleosome! @rob_best_ Beat Fierz disq.us/t/3nxe95b

There are other viruses with pandemic potential. Julia Peukes, Alex Xiong and others have collaborated to determine the native structure of M1, the most abundant protein in influenza virions. @MRC_LMB EMBL Simon Erlendsson Will Wan CIID_Heidelberg biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Congrats to my colleagues on this amazing piece of work!

The native structure of the assembled matrix protein 1 of #influenza A virus. M1 was a long research journey by Julia Peukes, Alex Xiong and others in the lab @MRC_LMB EMBL with collaborators CIID_Heidelberg The Francis Crick Institute. Out now @nature nature.com/articles/s4158…

In the light of the Trump campaign post-election plan of action, I guess the best argument for the election being legit, is that he did not win...

So many great scientists including Zunlong Ke John Briggs Jason Shepherd and myself, contributed to this piece on how viruses shape our world which is featured in this months edition of National Geographic. Give it a read or at least look at the pretty pictures. nationalgeographic.com/magazine/2021/…

I have a postdoc position open in my lab, using single-molecule spectroscopy to study disordered proteins and their interactions with chromatin, see here english.hi.is/vacancies. Come join us in our brand new facilities in Reykjavík! Please RT!

Deadline on Monday to apply for a postdoc position in Reykjavík, and we still have an erupting volcano right next to the city!

I have an open position in my lab at Chalmers University of Technology (Computer Science and Engineering, Gothenburg) for a postdoc. If you are excited about applying and developing ML for science, then please apply by May 31st. #mljobs #postdoc chalmers.se/en/about-chalm…
