Huge congratulations @GirishRMali on your lab’s first pre-print! continuing to answer important questions that have remained mysterious for a long time on ODA regulation. Beautiful work! 🤩

Our paper looking at the structure of retrograde IFT trains is out now! Have a look at the link, or see some of the headlines in this video: cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092…

A huge achievement to get here. Such inspiring hard work and innovative ideas (and the execution of a great collaboration!) @chrisgrbbn. Always blown away by the regenerative capacity of the liver - this reveals the weird & wonderful ways liver cells change during chronic injury.

Wonderful wizardry by @AlexFellows1 to track dynein (and its friends) endogenously in neurons - huge congrats! 🥳
Excited to share our latest work on @biorxivpreprint! We visualised single molecules of dynein and its cofactors live in the axon. Work by @AlexFellows1 in collaboration with the @sangerinstitute (Andrew Basset, Michaela Bruntraeger and Thomas Burgold) biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

💥 💥 💥 this is huge and so well deserved! 🥳
All aboard the IFT train! We featured the article from @samlacey745 and @_Helen_Foster_ in @GaiaPigino lab in the May issue of NSMB

Wonderful work revealing the structure of cofilactin inside microtubules (🤯) by the hugely talented @CamillaVenturaS! Always in awe of your efficiency and brilliant contributions to #teamtomo 🤩
Happy to share our new preprint: We imaged protrusions of Drosophila cells with cryoET and found filaments in the microtubule lumen. Subtomo-avg and RNAi suggest these are cofilin-bound actin (cofilactin). By @CamillaVenturaS in collab with Stephen Rogers. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Without a shadow of a doubt Clinton is one of the best scientists I have every worked with! This will be an awesome project.
We're looking for a postdoc to join my lab in @BiochemOxford! Have a look if you're interested in the structure and function of malaria microtubule-binding proteins: my.corehr.com/pls/uoxrecruit…. Closing date Wed 15th Feb.
