🧬 We’re thrilled to welcome John Briggs from the Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry to #LMBIP2025!
His lab uses cutting-edge cryo-electron microscopy to uncover how HIV-1 particles assemble and mature, shedding light on the virus’s transformation into its infectious form. 🦠

🧪 Forward, reverse… or both?
Tired of biased screens and shallow hits? What if you could evolve your way to discovery? Viktor Lukacs (University of Leeds) has built a novel screening platform that pushes cells to reveal hidden receptors genes with no prior knowledge required. Curious?

🎤 Hair follicle stem cells, cells that talk!
Claire Higgins (Imperial) gives us the inside scoop on HFESCs that not only grow hair but literally talk to neurons. Mechanosensation meets neurotransmitters in a surprising duet between hair and nerves.

🧠 The ABC of TDP-43
TDP-43 doesn’t just misfold, it gets creative! Diana Arseni (MRC-LMB) shows how this key protein forms amyloid filaments with disease-specific folds. The reason? Join us at LMB-IP 2025 to find all about it.

🧬When genome duplication goes off-script...
DNA replication is a finely tuned process, until it isn’t… Join John Diffley (Crick) as he unpacks how cells initiate replication and what happens when the system fails. A must-see for fans of fundamental mechanisms!
