Get out your calendars! The motors are out of quarantine and we plan to assemble in person on 8th May 2026 at University of Warwick Campus for a fun day on motors and the filaments they walk along. Livestream is planned too. More details on registration, travel bursaries etc. will be revealed soon.

Excited to speak on actin & organelle transport @ #BiochemEvent @biochemsoc.bsky.social (Thurs, Session V, OC022) - thanks to @bscb-official.bsky.social supporting my trip!

Bit of a fiery start (literally, city centre fire 😬), but here’s to a smoother rest of the week.

"Ours may be a pernicious history, but the trajectory of genetics has been one that tends towards progress and equity"

Excellent explainer from @adamrutherford.bsky.social on why racial groupings have no sound biological basis.

Our efforts continue to diversify our #BiologistsWorkshops programme to support a wider selection of research communities around the world. If you are a researcher working in the Global South, find out more about hosting a Workshop near you. biologists.com/workshops/pr...

Won the best postdoc poster award!! 🎉

Thank you @bscb-official.bsky.social, @biologists.bsky.social and my amazing supervisor - Dr Alistair Hume, who constantly inspires, supports and challenges me to grow.

I've enjoyed being at a broad conference #biologists100 and seeing talks that I wouldn't normally see. Fascinating (and entertaining) plenary talk yesterday from Sadaf Farooqi on obesity. If you're here at the meeting, what out-of-the-ordinary talk or poster did you enjoy the most?

Initiator + promoter model better explains the data. E.g. EGFR mutation followed by air-pollution-induced macrophage activity in lung cancer #biologists100

For anyone who has seen my poster and is interested in looking at the movies, please come to my flash talk “Actin in organelle transport..”

When: Organelle Dynamics session, Hall 1C

When: 13.30-15.00

#biologists100

Come check out my flash talk tomorrow:
"The evolution of developmental system drift in axial specification in Annelida", Session I: Patterning and morphogenesis, Hall 1B

Also, pay a visit to poster 171!!! @qmulsbbs.bsky.social

Excited to be presenting @ #biologists100

For pretty movies: flash talk, session=organelle dynamics

For interesting data on actin in organelle transport: poster #129

Hey! Any researchers out there that are visiting Iceland this spring (Feb-Jun) and would like to present their work at our weekly seminar series at the BioMedical Center (BMC) at the University of Iceland lifvisindi.hi.is Please let me know!

Our spindle and kinetochore tracker paper is out! The code is available on @github.com - for those who don't like dealing with code SpinX is available via @carlzeissstiftung.bsky.social. More on expanding SpinX to multicellular environments:
