I'm doing my first pulse chase experiment and I like that it sounds like an action film.

PULSE CHASE starring Françios Olivier

It also sounds like a sick run club. An absolute winner of a name.

This guy was just awesome today - not often you have a guest bring you science gifts, do a great interview, and then sing about their work as well!
Just a lovely time hanging out with @drshanerrr.bsky.social, ChrisKP and Dr Scarlett on Triple R today 🎙❤️

Also my first time singing about fungi on radio... a love song about Candida 😍 Definitely harder to do live!

Thank you to Monash Micro Imaging and Thermo Fisher Scientific for awarding me 2nd place 🥈 honours in the 2024 MMI Image competition 🤩

Well done to all the winners, there were some truly spectacular images and I am so proud to be featured alongside them all.

Everyone meet “Billy” my new desk mate, already has a long induction waitlist 🔬

Safety SUNglasses recommended for use, which involves staring directly into an LED. The blindness that results is temporary and absolutely worthwhile for the outstanding imaging achieved.

New year, new toys 🍄🔬

Wishing everyone a happy 2024, keep pioneering and discovering!

New paper! STARProtocols actually let me write a big ol’ protocol: live cell imaging to quantify Candida albicans escape from macrophages.

I’m talking notes, video demonstrations, troubleshooting, sample data, MATHS!

So happy to see awesome scientists migrate here! Twitter/X has so many problems, it’s just not the vibe for science anymore.
Thank you @faolivier.bsky.social for the introduction! Lets see if I can find anyone 😝.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae: a brief etymology

saccharon = sugar 🍭
myces = fungus 🍄
cerevisiae = latin for "of beer" 🍺

Think I'll have a cerevisiae tonight...

I’m excited to announce my grant-writing think tank.

Already a few strong opinions expressed.

Yesterday I was bestowed with a superb farewell gift from @drlachie.bsky.social… “The Francois Line” on the lab’s table tennis ladder, showing my final score 🥹

I am honoured. 🫡
