@Muliyilsonia @TrendsGenetics @CellPressNews @galette86 @TrendsImmuno @TrendsChemistry @Trends_Ecol_Evo congrats, very amazing!!!

[Alex Tsui @ccalextsui]

Check out the latest issue of ᴘʜᴇɴᴏᴛʏᴘᴇ – a life science magazine by Oxford scientists, this time with special contributions from Berlin! Was great fun putting together the magazine and designing the layout. Special thanks to Co-Editor-in-Chiefs @Muliyilsonia @Marinavk24.

Glad to be part of the team!

Cambridge won yesterday's @PolRogerEpernay varsity wine tasting match - by 658 points to 654! Top taster was from Oxford though: Keble mathematician Gianmarco Luppi. Tricky wines listed below

Delighted to be awarded a poster prize at #BPS20. Big thanks to @mark_sansom! It was also great meeting up with co-supervisor and collaborator @WardLab1 @emily_liman. Lots to be done for Otopetrin channels 🍋

FINAL tweet by the #MSDday19 committee! Of course, this fantastic day wouldn’t be possible without our student committee across 7 departments of the MSD!

[Alex Tsui @ccalextsui]

Taking over @OxfordMedSci Twitter Account today and I will be sharing everything that’s happening at #MSDday19!

[Medical Sciences @OxfordMedSci]

💡 Join us TODAY at the 16th MSD DPhil Day #MSDday19 taking place at the Tingewick Hall @ JR Hospital! Check out our fantastic list of speakers here: https://t.co/iieMyWYkXS

[Emily Liman @emily_liman]

Great commentary on Otopetrin channel structures by Lucie Delemotte @scilifelab in NSMB https://t.co/uFQ4oNhbV1. There are three possible permeation pathways - which one is it? The jury is still out!

[Simon Newstead @inwardopen]

A huge ‘thank you’ from Olga and myself to all the speakers, discussion leaders and attendees at the 2019 mechanisms of membrane transport GRC. Keep your diaries free for the next meeting in 2020 chaired by Janice Robertson and David Drew. Safe travels.

[Stephen J. Tucker @ProfKalium]

Two new papers on how to map ion channel pore structures. The underlying software tool: "CHAP" https://t.co/bDjCoYUVmt & https://t.co/Pxs5uCPRvV
We also used machine learning on known structures to make instant predictions about permeability. https://t.co/na0EJOQlAe

[Alex Tsui @ccalextsui]

Wonderful summary of our recent Otop papers, thanks to @DelemotteLab. Just in time to share with the #GRC audience! #GRC2019 #GRCMembraneTransport

[Alex Tsui @ccalextsui]

Thank you for your wonderful summary! @DelemotteLab

[Alex Tsui @ccalextsui]

Stunning cover art on @NatureSMB on our Otopetrin paper, by @ebdewalt! These are immunostained mouse taste buds from @emily_liman lab.

Thanks to @WardLab1 and @mark_sansom labs – it's great to be a joint student on the Oxford-Scripps programme.

[NatureStructMolBiol @NatureSMB]

Work from Ward @scrippsresearch, Liman @USCDornsife and colleagues: #CryoEM structures of zebrafish Otop1 and chicken Otop3 reveal potential proton conduction pathways for otopetrins, which are candidate sour taste receptors.

[Alex Tsui @ccalextsui]

Structures of the otopetrin proton channels Otop1 and Otop3 - the paper is out on @NatureSMB! Thanks also to Oxford @radcliffescilib for the affordable 3D printing.

@PilhoferLab @UniWarszawski All the best to Piotr!

[The Ward Lab @WardLab1]

Dropped our latest #cryoem structures of #protonchannel #Otopetrin putative #taste_receptor @biorxivpreprint https://t.co/D1Vxi7m9Q9. Only 25 refs PubMed getting in on ground floor! Great collab with @emily_liman and @mark_sansom labs. @scrippsresearch #sciencechanginglife
