@Cediot1 Good luck! I can't wait to see all of the cool science you will be doing over there, but we will miss you here!

[Alina Vaitsiankova @vaitsiankova]

Was happy to present my PhD work at the @GDSC_Sussex retreat. Lots of great talks and posters!
Great thanks to the @DarwinTrustOfEd for funding my PhD, to my lovely lab and the supervisor @keith_caldecott, as well as to all the funding bodies @CR_UK, @ERC_Research, @The_MRC

[Nicola Minchell @NicolaMinchell]

Really enjoying the talks at @KeystoneSymp this week! On to day two and can't wait for all the talks coming up still, including from @job_dekker and @GeorgeSpracklin from the Dekker lab #vkschromatin22 #eSymposia

[Uli Rass @uli_rass]

We are looking for a postdoctoral research fellow to join the @GDSC_Sussex @SussexLifeSci and study inhibition of the DNA replication stress response in cancer cells. For more information please see https://t.co/B6S032IXvd. Looking forward to hearing from you! Please RT.

Well done rose! Amazing

[Nicola Minchell @NicolaMinchell]

Well done Rose! What a great PhD paper dissecting the functions of Tof1. Good luck in your post doc in the Yeeles lab @MRC_LMB

Lloyd Russell-Moyle is a great MP. I hope he keeps going unhindered from this

This afternoon I spoke to Keir and asked to step back from the front bench duties as Minister for Air Quality and the Natural Environment but remain a Labour and Co-operative MP for Brighton Kemptown and Peacehaven.

See my statement below. 👇

Thank you @JMPSimor! The pandemic has exposed the extreme vulnerability of workers in global garment supply chains. We need impactful change to ensure that workers are paid a living wage.

Also got sent a wonderful cake by my amazing colleagues in the Baxter Lab from @Cloud9brighton

Bluebells are out in force already! Lucky to be able to cycle to the woods yesterday for my Birthday daily activity

[Nicola Minchell @NicolaMinchell]

So excited to see my first first author paper published in @MolecularCell : Cohesin Causes Replicative DNA Damage by Trapping DNA Topological Stress https://t.co/tpGaZ53Ypa

[Nicola Minchell @NicolaMinchell]

Check out our new bioRxiv manuscript on the functions of Tof1 (Timeless). Congratulations @roseface_ ! https://t.co/FR6GeL2fcB

[Nicola Minchell @NicolaMinchell]

I saw a really interesting talk on this work given by Luis Aragon last year at the Gneome Centre, definitely one to check out @GDSC_Sussex @MRC_LMS

There was worldwide outcry when the Notre Dame cathedral was on fire. Why is there not the same level of outrage for the fires destroying the #AmazonRainforest?

@INTEGRApipette Thanks very much @INTEGRApipette one more thing for feedback. I'd suggest trying out a gender neutral pipette... you could name it: pipetgenderneutralbecausepipettesdontneedtobegendered

[Nicola Minchell @NicolaMinchell]

Help! I got a much too manly Swiss army knife with my pipetboy. I'll know not to make the mistake of buying one of those again and buy a much more suited pipetgirl which fortunately doesn't come with a Swiss army knife unsuited to womanly pursuits @INTEGRApipette #sexistmarketing

[Nicola Minchell @NicolaMinchell]

@INTEGRApipette I thought that would be the reason. What Indrayani says is right. Also I would rather not be forced to receive a free army knife that costs me €10
