@UKVolkswagen Maybe you can make one that doesn’t break down 7 times in the first year (unlike mine)… while waiting for a never arriving software update to stop the 12v battery going flat. Truly dreadful customer service.

Interested in membrane protein structure, folding, interactions and function? We're looking for a creative, talented post-doc to join our bacterial outer membrane team @RadfordLab @naranson in the @AstburyCentre, on a new @The_MRC programme grant.

Chuffed to bits for you @sashalevans !!

Installation and training on our new Dianthus from @NanoTemper

Binding assays especially for tricky systems - membrane proteins, multi-molecular complexes and small molecule libraries.

Many thanks @The_MRC for funding.

This one has been a long time in the making… I’m really proud of a stunning paper (IMO!) but much more proud of a stunning team who made it possible @milkowilko @AstburyCentre @Astbury_BSL @RadfordLab @CellPressNews https://t.co/HMABh4FhG7

Just in time for Christmas! Excited to see our fibril structures published, showing changing polymorphism of IAPP during the course of amyloid assembly. As always, brilliant team effort from the amyloid team, thanks all @AstburyCentre @naranson

I’m gutted to miss @alessiociulli today, but it’s very bad form for the @AstburyCentre director to share his chest infection with the speaker and the whole centre!

[Alessio Ciulli @alessiociulli]

Looking forward to visiting the @AstburyCentre to give the Astbury seminar and catching up with many colleagues and friends especially @FrankSobott @UoDCeTPD

[Neil Ranson @naranson]

Absolutely thrilled to see this out at last in @NatureChemistry, and looking forward to more exciting discoveries with Jon and friends thanks to brand new funding from @The_MRC. Watch this space for a stellar postdoc opportunity next year. @RadfordLab @AstburyCentre

[RadfordLab @RadfordLab]

Super proud of this paper now out on Nature Chemistry by Jon Machin https://t.co/rU2Q3i4HIf. Great work Jon!! Post docs in our OMP team available- come and join us! https://t.co/gZqAMeJ65f

[Neil Ranson @naranson]

Lovely bit of work. Congrats Sofia, Sjors and team... I had the privilege of being external examiner for her thesis and saw this beautiful work a few months ago.
I'm still very jealous!

[Neil Ranson @naranson]

Want to understand how the β-barrel assembly machinery works & solve amazing cryoEM structures like this one? There is a fully funded project to join the @naranson and @RadfordLab labs in Oct 2024 via the @BBSRCWhiteRose. Apply by Jan 7th! @AstburyCentre https://t.co/mMXfJ5xXnM
