Applications close this Friday!

Exciting opportunity to join us as a PhD student and kickstart cryo-EM studies in our group 🔬🧬. Includes world class training opportunities @EdinUni_IGC @MDC_Berlin. See below for more details and please get in touch if you're interested. findaphd.com/phds/project/f…

4-year PhD studentship available in my lab to study helper helicase function in eukaryotic DNA replication. Happy to receive any enquiries directly to me. Come join us and add your figure to the lab lego collection! institute-genetics-cancer.ed.ac.uk/igc-graduate-r…

Great first day of EMBL DNA replication meeting in beautiful Heidelberg, including a hike to the Schloss with @Yeeles_Lab

What a fantastic few days at UK DNA replication 2024 - thanks @BiochemSoc for organising such a great meeting. Hope to see you all in Edinburgh in two years time 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Excellent summary of Tavi and Cristian's recent work. Thanks @JamesMDewar!

CMG helicase disassembly is essential and driven by two pathways in budding yeast Karim Labib and colleagues show that Pif1-family helicases mediate an ancestral pathway for ‘old’ #replisome disassembly during the subsequent S-phase embopress.org/doi/full/10.10…

Brilliant to see our talented postdoc, Cristian, publish his work on CMG disassembly in @embojournal. The culmination of his PhD work in the Labib lab at @dundeeuni. @TDDeego embopress.org/doi/full/10.10…..

Abstract and early bird deadline for the 2024 UK DNA Replication Meeting is this week. Don't miss out - its going to be a fantastic meeting!

Hope, at last🌹

Today, the country goes to the polls. The nation decides its future. This is our chance to vote for change. We’ve had 14 years of Tory government, 5 Prime Ministers, but the result is the same - decline and chaos. Don’t waste this opportunity. Vote Labour. 🌹

Please RT: The Walter lab at Harvard seeks computational biologists to extend our work using AlphaFold to find new protein-protein interactions. Contact [email protected] biorxiv.org/content/10.110… predictomes.org

Don’t forget about our UK DNA replication meeting! Only chairs of the sessions invited - rest of the talks are for grabs from the abstracts. Come and share your work with us! #UKDNAreplication

Join us for this exciting Symposium featuring Replisome structure, Origin regulation, Chromatin replication, Replication stress and Replication in Cancer etiology/treatment. Stellar speaker lineup! MANY talks selected from abstracts.

Was great fun to be involved with Cristian's PhD work over the past few years. Take a look!
