This month is Heart Month! Professor Will Fuller explains what his research is about.

Will Fuller’s research group works on cellular and molecular mechanisms that control normal physiology in the heart, and how these things stop working properly to cause disease. (1/4)

Soooo excited to share this, just published. www.nature.com/articles/s41.... It started as a crazy ‘Friday afternoon’ experiment and just… worked. And kept on working. We fused a #nanobody to a #thioesterase. This delivers the thioesterase to a target and specifically depalmitoylates this protein

Why have you changed dozens of instances of ‘alpha1C’ in our manuscript to ‘alpha1 C’? It isn’t a unit. It was right the first time.

Two papers accepted in one week caps a remarkable year of success. There have been difficult and fallow years in my career. This has not been one of them and I will celebrate that! Cheers! 🎉☃️🎄

Give us your acclaim. Or don’t. It won’t really matter either way.

Community sense check required… Reviewer asked us to show using proteomics that our new reagent doesn’t have off target effects. In a whole cell proteome, expression of one protein (our reagent) has changed. Reviewer: now you need to look at proliferation and viability assays. Feels unreasonable?

I love teaching in this space. Millions of times better than the lecture theatres I endured during undergrad days. Now I just have to hope the students turn up ready to hear about #lipidrafts

The annual Christmas decorating of the lab has started. There are lights everywhere. I’m in my office and all I hear is the sound of decorations being fixed to my door. #sendhelp

Paper is ready to resubmit 9 months to the day since I first clicked ‘submit’. This has been quite a labour of love that I will be excited to share (soon, please!)
