As a PI, is there a worse phone call at 7am on the first day of your camping holiday than “Your -80C freezer is alarming and losing temperature”? 😫
Thanks to an amazing group of students for organizing such a fun and diverse symposium with @ERADLab @Amelie_HJ @anne_grapin @jwadeharperlab @LacefieldLab (almost pictured), Brenda (no twitter) et al.!
We are getting excited….a few more hours to go…tomorrow, Wed 10 May, at 09:00 the @IMPRS_LM student symposium, „Building Blocks of Life“, is starting. We are looking forward to welcoming a superb line-up of speakers!
Deadline is fast approaching for the @EMBO ER meeting this October in Barga, Italy! A great lineup of speakers that include @Eric_Chevet @OlzmannLab @FriedrichForst1 and many more. Don't miss out! Shout out to @Co_Biologists for supporting this meeting 👏 meetings.embo.org/event/24-er
Lab day away!!! ERADLab’s outing to the Cotswolds. Beautiful day to walk in amazing countryside. Stanton to Snowshill loop with expansive views along the way. Need to do this more often!

It's June already? Just 1 month left to submit your abstract to the @EMBO ER meeting in October. Don't miss out! meetings.embo.org/event/24-er
It was a pleasure to be @UniofOxford for the DPhil viva of (twitterless) Ava Van Ess @VdangioE3lab. Many thanks to Ava and @ERADLab for the fun discussion and excellent hospitality #dressdownmondays

A subset of polytopic membrane proteins, such as subunits of the GABAA receptor, remains incompletely inserted when translation is terminated. We describe an essential post-translational step that completes insertion of such proteins. nature.com/articles/s4159…
Delighted that our paper on degraders and stabilisers of squalene synthase in @ChemicalScience has been highlighted as #chemscipicks! Fantastic work by @HoockJoseph with great support by Cecilia, Mesut, @ERADLab and @Laura_dta!
This week's #ChemSciPicks brings to you a strategy for squalene synthase degradation by @HoockJoseph with @laraialab from @ChemistryDtu. Read it for free at doi.org/10.1039/D3SC04…
