I really enjoyed the #Protein Design and Engineering session at the @ccpnmr.bsky.social summer meeting. I've summarised the discussion points on LinkedIn (tinyurl.com/2thdjew4). Is NMR underused? It would be great to hear people's thoughts ...

It’s the 25th anniversary of edition of the @ccpnmr.bsky.social summer conference and it’s time for the traditional #ceilidh. I suppose this is what a bunch of #NMR spectroscopists in intermediate exchange looks like.

Gary Thompson and I tested out a walk around #CastleHoward for the @ccpnmr.bsky.social meeting which is taking place @york.ac.uk this summer.
The line-up includes protein design, peptides, hyperpolarisation, a keynote, and poster sessions.
Plus a great walk too

Beautiful sunrise over @bangoruniversity.bsky.social this morning. Heading to the 2nd day of the UK #Archaea meeting. It’s been great so far, so many cool stories and interesting conversations.

I’ll write more about this pre-print in the next few days, but please do take a look at this piece of work by Clément Dégut. It’s a 3D-printed open-source microscope that can image microtitre plates. Ideal for anyone looking for a new #DIY #science project

It’s the YSBL (not yet on BlueSky) Xmas party and it’s quiz time. The theme? Guess the price of the item on the University purchasing system. So, how much does 10 mL of “wine” cost from Merck? Is it red? Is it white? No, it’s “wine”. 🍷🎄
