Welcome to another episode of "WELSH VILLAGE NAME or PEPTIDE SEQUENCE"

[Joseph G. Gleeson @jogleeson_ucsd]

Exciting results from @n_lorem @WendyKChung @BainBrainLab on evidence of clinical benefit from first patient treated with @personalized @ASO for @KIF1A #KAND syndrome. Published in @NatureMedicine

Yes, the freezer might be full, but you never know when you need those 54 vials of CutSmart Buffer.

Andrea Gazzi had never seen a rugby ball until he migrated from north Italy to south Wales. More than 80 years after losing his life in the Arandora Star disaster, the Gazzi dynasty @GorseinonRFC is still going strong. The story is in @TheRugbyPaper out today.

Lab’s first preprint🥂! Following our passion for #RNA & #cytoskeleton, we find how tubulins control the stability of their encoding mRNAs via reversible repression of TTC5. Abolishing this repression suppresses tubulin mRNA stability and poisons mitosis👇

TUBB4B variants associated with left-handedness.

[Nature Portfolio @NaturePortfolio]

A paper in @NatureComms suggests that rare protein-altering genetic variants and tubulin genes may be associated with the development of left-handedness in humans. https://t.co/MCg5fdRX1J

Did a triple take at some out-of-context Welsh greeting cards on display in a Cambridge Post Office. Must be at least 3 hours over the border #firstclass @rachelmckneuro @CymraegDoctor

@AlexW_Phillips When the starting salary for postdocs is ~£34k, this will be yet another blow for the reputation of academic research in UK. Gov once again cutting its nose off to spite its face

@keays_lab Not bad for a Summer Student! @Alexandra_C_V

[Dan Doherty @Dohertylab]

Interested in research on human brain malformations and living in awesome Seattle? Apply for the @Dohertylab research scientist position https://t.co/8ExWUrw01Z to learn bench and computational techniques. It’s a great stepping stone to a biomedical research or healthcare career.

[The Nogales Lab @NogalesLab]

Today we celebrated the 25th anniversary of Eva’s 1998 tubulin dimer structure (https://t.co/IYXEYP4g4F ) and the incredible 25 years of the Nogales lab. Thank you to everyone who contributed to making this day so special!

[Tubulin Biobank @TubulinBiobank]

The Tubulin Biobank is on twitter. We are a group of researchers dedicated to understanding the #tubulinopathies, a spectrum of conditions caused by genetic variation in tubulin genes.

@keays_lab @Alexandra_C_V It’s cheaper to drink the StemFlex anyway
