Curious how biocondensates localize ions? We found that condensates selectively bind and localize both chaotropic anions and kosmotropic cations. This alters the condensate composition, interface potential and RNA duplex stability inside. By @IrisSmokers biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
My first day at the University of Birmingham School of Chemistry @UoBChemistry. Complete with a rainbow 🌈 over the Molecular Sciences Building! Delighted to start my group here and looking forward to doing exciting chemistry funded by the European Research Council @ERC_Research

Never has this been truer. Labour needs to step up, wake up, show up, and get us back on the path to EU membership, in whatever form can be agreed. Blair was right then and is right now. Come on, sort yourselves out. Your economic growth doesn’t exist.
RT appreciated: My lab is recruiting several Ph.D.s and Postdocs excited to build synthetic cells that undergo Darwinian evolution. The backgrounds that we need for include biochemistry, synthetic biology, and systems chemistry. Details: boekhovenlab.com/openings/
A 3-year postdoctoral position in homogeneous catalysis and synthetic organic chemistry, to start in February 2025 or later, is available in my group @DurhamChemistry! Candidates of any nationality can apply by Sunday 20/10/24. Info and how to apply: durham.taleo.net/careersection/…
