Imperial Membrane Receptor Network

Are you interested in developing a research programme in cell biology of diabetes? Do you work in pancreatic islets and/or other metabolically relevant cell types? We have a Lectureship position opening to establish a lab in our Section at @imperialcollege (link to apply below)

PhD Studentship available in the lab of Dr Paras Anand @anandparas at Imperial, in collaboration with me: findaphd.com/phds/project/d…

A postdoctoral position is available in my lab @CellBiolMDR @ImperialMDR to study the subcellular organisation of signalling of the glucagon receptor family. For more information and to apply please click here: imperial.ac.uk/jobs/search-jo…

Dear Membrane Receptor Network Members, Just a reminder of Prof Dylan Owen’s seminar tomorrow at 11 am, ICTEM rooms 527/528, Hammersmith Campus. Please let me know if any of you needs access to ICTEM.

Join us for our Summer Gathering next Friday at the Hammersmith Campus - details below!

A quick reminder about Denise Wootten's talk tomorrow at 11 am at the Hammersmith Campus, with free lunch afterwards and the opportunity to discuss with her. Hope to see lots of you there!

Denise Wootten (Monash Univ.) will be joining us for our next Membrane Receptor Network seminar! “Biased agonism and allosteric modulation at the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor” Join us at Hammersmith Campus on 24th April at 11 am and for a lunch and discussion afterwards.

Our last ECR event had great feedback and if you're a post-doc/PhD student and you're interested in organising our next Membrane Receptor Network Early Career event in the New Year get in touch! We can provide funding, support and guidance as required.

GPCR postdoc positions available at the Stamou Lab! If you're interested in cutting edge GPCR pharmacology or single molecule imaging this could be the place for you! stamoulab.com/join-us

A reminder about our Early Career event on Thursday, 4.30 at the IRDB, Hammersmith Campus! All BSc/MSc/MRes/PhD students and postdocs welcome. Free pizza and drinks & a great meet up place for ECRs interested in cell/receptor biology + signalling pathways, see you there!

Don't miss our first Early Career event! Join us on the 29th June for Pizza's and short talks - and get in touch if you'd like to present, we'd love everyone to get involved.

📢 Don't forget we have Dr Bianca Plouffe with us at 11! Join in person at Hammersmith Campus or remotely via Teams.

Next Tuesday we will be hosting Dr Bianca Plouffe, (Queen’s University Belfast) for a talk on the role of US28 sub cellular localisation in the upregulation of oncomodulatory genes in the context of glioblastoma. Check your email for more details - see you there!

Join us for a talk from Professor Sandra Paiva (Uni of Minho, Portugal) entitled “Regulated endocytic trafficking of eukaryotic carboxylate transporters’’. 10-11am this Thursday @ the IRDB Seminar room & virtually on MS Teams. Meet the speaker & refreshments to follow!

Calling our ECRs! Would you like the opportunity to organise and host a workshop or invited speaker session? Check your emails for more info and send us a brief outline of your session by Wednesday 10th May. Get in touch if you have any questions!

Come a few days early for the World Conference of Pharmacology in Glasgow and attend this free GPCR Signalling symposium. 11th Adrenoceptor Symposium: Adrenoceptors and GPCR Signalling (June 30th – July 1st, 2023) Registration and programme at: eventbrite.com.au/e/11th-adrenoc…

A reminder for our seminar, today at 3pm!

The wonderful Peter McCormick (@PeterMc66323620) will be joining us from @QMUL for an in-person Seminar entitled "G-protein coupled receptors: rarely a solo performance". Tuesday 28th February, 3 pm at Hammersmith Campus, check the website for details - hope to see you there!

Calling all Membrane Receptor Network members! Friday 2nd December we're hosting @ProfGMilligan at the White City campus for a talk entitled 'Can we drug receptors for microbially-produced metabolic hormones' - check your emails for more details!
