Since peanuts are shaped like chromosomes, here is a mitotic peanut cake. If we wait long enough there will be two cakes :)

I am thrilled to share that the work from my PhD is now available as a preprint on bioRxiv. Follow the link below to find out more about the role of PANEM in facilitating interaction between chromosomes and the mitotic spindle!

On this paper we benchmark 11 ligand binding site prediction tools on our curated reference dataset: LIGYSIS!

It has been an exciting few weeks. Successfully defending my PhD in May, visiting @TheCrick and presenting a poster at the Cell Cycle Club, and hiking Ben Nevis!

A thread on our recent paper with Vitelli and @squishycell1 labs. It’s got biology, physics, machine learning… a little something for everyone! It all started with a simple question:

Can we predict traction forces directly from images of proteins?

NEW ONLINE: Schuh & co show that, in human and porcine oocytes, actin cables and microtubule loops move chromosomes into a cluster before spindle assembly to ensure fast and complete chromosome capture in meiosis.

Were you taught that CDK1 is a proline-directed kinase? We think that's only half the story. Join us as a postdoc to discover the functions of non proline directed CDK1 phosphorylation in human cells.  https://t.co/37slZw0QO5
