Grad students and postdocs need our support.

I know the challenges they face firsthand. When I was at the university, I helped them secure funding, food, housing and heating.

They have the ideas, do research now, and are also the future of research.

Time to invest.

📢The Department of BMB would like to invite you to our Ph.D. Exit Seminar featuring Thomas Nguyen from the Teves Lab!

Title:  “Mechanisms of Eukaryotic Transcription in Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells”

📍 Monday, March 25, 2024, 2:30 pm - 3:30 pm in LSC 3 and Zoom

[Filip Van Petegem @FilipPetegem]

A postdoc position is available in our lab to study how ion channels communicate with one another. Cryo-EM, electrophysiology, protein biophysics. A great opportunity for structural biologists to learn electrophysiology methods or vice versa.

Hot of the press...a ribosome story with a twist! We show how the 3' to 5' exonuclease RNase R twists the head of the small 30S subunit by 160° to mediate degradation...https://t.co/qnJxoxOIHo

[Leonard Foster @lenjf]

Really enjoyed hosting the staff and faculty of @UBCbiochemistry to say thank you for all the support as Head over that last eight years! Thank you all for making it such a great event!
