My first paper is published! My undergrad project completed remotely in the @BeebyLab, special thanks to @Trishant_U and Morgan! Evolution of #Archaellum Rotation Involved Invention of a Stator Complex by Duplicating and Modifying a Core Component frontiersin.org/article/10.338…
Do you want to do a postdoc of phylogenetics/biophysics on flagellar evolution in Marburg, Germany? Do you want to do with flagella what Darwin did with Finches? I certainly would, but alas I'm too old. Get in touch with @KaHochberg! mpi-marburg.mpg.de/642026/Open-Po…

Beautiful story from the Collinson lab showing how different periplasmic machines integrate: Sec and BAM associate!
So happy this is finally out. It’s been a long road. Congratulations to @alvipur @DanWatkins37 and the rest of the illustrious team: @LucyTroman Will Allen @JamesLorriman Gianluca Degliesposti, Eli Cohen @BeebyLab @DaumLaboratory @the_gold_lab Mark Skehel doi.org/10.7554/eLife.…
Register now for "Bacterial Cell Envelopes" satellite meeting of @BritBiophysSoc -- only 80 slots available. I'll be talking about work on peptidoglycan and periplasm. Registration details will be posted at britishbiophysics.org and symakhalidresearchgroup.wordpress.com in the near future.

Eli's paper on Campylobacter cell motility out! We're really proud of this study, where we found that helical cell shape has become entrenched: by preventing helical shape determination, we greatly diminish Campy's swimming ability. Campy motility has many inter-reliant aspects..
Campylobacter jejuni motility integrates specialized cell shape, flagellar filament, and motor, to coordinate action of its opposed flagella New research from Beeby and colleagues @imperialcollege @UTSWNews Full article here: buff.ly/30UdcgY
Huge congrats to Dr Eli Cohen as Research Co-I for award of an @The_MRC grant to continue his groundbreaking work in our lab at @imperialcollege Campylobacter jejuni's unusual swimming style!
The first ever visualization of CheY family binding to the outer rim of the C-ring? @flosirswish Florian's paper collaborating with the @JenalLab on CleD, a CheY homolog, binding the #Caulobacter C-ring just published in @MolMicroEditors! doi.org/10.1111/mmi.14…

🧑🏽💻Join us this Thursday for our next webinar! Dr Morgan Beeby will discuss bacterial evolution using 3D electron microscopy🔬⚛️ @ImperialSci @ImpEngineering @ImperialMed You can register through Eventbrite👇 eventbrite.co.uk/e/understandin…
PhD position in my lab starting this October 2020! findaphd.com/phds/program/d… Specifically trying to widen participation and looking for EU students or non-Russell group University UK students. Particularly keen to get applications from underrepresented groups! Come join the team!

I'm speaking today at 2:20pm BST at the #ccpem Online Symposium... register to attend free by Zoom here!: ccpem.ac.uk/training/sprin…
