Heartily recommend getting involved with this ECR webinar series from @biochemsoc.bsky.social. It's a great forum to present your work outside a big meeting. Slots are ONLY available to postgraduate and early career members. Abstract deadline: 24 February! Submission link here: t.co/BhMqFPB7W7.

I'm in the market for a new paper notebook, should be A5'ish, and be reasonably sturdy. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Excited to share our work describing a series of structures that allow us to propose a new model for Hantavirus genome replication by the viral L-protein. Another great experience with @loiccarrique.bsky.social @ben-nilsson-payant.bsky.social @efodor.bsky.social Jon Grimes. doi.org/10.1371/jour...

To open cryoSPARC all I have to do is type “cry” into the search bar and it comes up. Feels about right. #cryoEM

I am only the slightest bit suspicious of this fitting. 🤔 #cryoEM

Saturdays at the Krios. 👌 May we proceed with thin ice, and nicely behaving particles.

Who should you nominate as reviewers for your manuscript? After a long chat with a post-grad it appears that there's a lot of misguided advice out there. Thread 👇

This is very cool! I guess the SPA equivalent of (re-annealing) in XRD?

#cryoEM #cryoET people! We cryo-cool using a mix of propane/ethane. Recently, the cup has started freezing, which shouldn’t happen and hasn’t before either. We still have pressure so we aren’t empty… any clues?

Grids plunge cryo-cooled, fingers crossed we’ve solved the disappearing protein problem!

Nice to see more and more people on here! Will definitely have to properly transition I think. The other place is getting sketchier by the day.

Wandering around the Nobel Prize Museum in Stockholm was such a tonic today, not least because there’s structural biology everywhere you look - in particular, X-ray crystallography!
