Have fun tonight, Dave!

I hesitate to post this pic because I don't want to break the internet 🙂

He fell asleep in my lap like this last night. It was great for him but not so good for a middle-aged guy sitting directly on the floor, unable to move for about an hour because he's trapped under the cutest kitten in the world.

We are looking for a #Postdoc (f/m/x) as of 1 Feb 2024, for a project using #metagenomics to follow microbial colonization and antibiotics gene transmission between prokaryotes and microeukaryotes (#fungi and #protists) on #microplastics > https://karriere-igb.softgarden.io/job/37216012/Postdoc-position-in-microbial-OMICS-and-microplastics-fixed-term-for-36-months-m-f-x-?jobDbPVId=97498273&l=de

Hi everyone, we updated our paper on cephalic furrow mechanics with an exciting evo-devo twist :)

What can this fold tell us about the interplay between genetic patterning, tissue mechanics, and the evolution of morphogenesis?

Do you like pretty patterns?

Do you like maths?

Do you like biology?

If yes, then do think about applying for this PhD with me at @UniofBath on modelling Zebrafish pigment pattern formation.

Assistant/Associate professor position at PDN (Dept. of Physiology, Development and Neurosdience), University of Cambridge, UK – my department.

https://www.jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/43411/

"Applications are invited for an Assistant/Associate Professorship (University Lecturer/Senior Lecturer) in the field of Neural Degeneration/Regeneration to be held in the Department of Physiology Development and Neuroscience. We are searching for a talented individual with a track record in research and commitment to teaching. The post is available from 1st October 2024 or as soon as possible thereafter. The department offers a world class research and teaching environment with an emphasis on exploring structure-function relationships at different levels of organisation, from tissues and organs to the organismal (https://www.pdn.cam.ac.uk/research). We welcome applications from those using in vivo and/or emerging model systems to investigate mechanisms underlying neural degeneration and/or regeneration, especially those interconnected with developmental processes."

Exciting BBSRC collab now hiring a PhD student!

Antimicrobial peptides - silver bullets or lead? I will be a co-supervisor (ad limited to 1 prof per univ but plan is 50/50 Ben Raymond/me at UoE).

This proj. follows work by myself & the Raymond lab on host-microbe / microbe-microbe interactions. AMPs are potential therapeutics, but could AMP therapeutics -> resistance evolution against human immune defences (😬)?

If that interests you, let's find out together!

We have a new paper out!

We looked at vesicle transport in cells. The textbooks say it's all motor-driven, but this idea is based on how large organelles are transported. Instead we find small vesicles move mainly by diffusion! We came up with a way to restrict the diffusion of one vesicle type (we made them furry!) & that reduces cargo delivery.

Congrats to my co-author Méghane Sittewelle who did all the imaging magic!
