Professor of Microbial Biophysics, University of Warwick. Interested in all things bacterial cell envelope, cell biophysics and advanced light microscopy. https://holdenlab.github.io/ Twitter (inactive): @seamus_holden
Update: David Roberts, postdoc in my lab, tested the GraceBio GeneFrame substitute. A few quirks but extremely promising. Good: B. subtilis cells grew quite happily in overnight time lapse. Growth rate comparison to GeneFrames not done yet but in the works.

New Grace Biolabs substitutes for GeneFrames look very promising. Will test soon

My main job in 2024 was assembling teams for several exciting and ambitious projects on bacterial cell wall biology. New lab members and new collaborations. Really happy to see that how collaborative and supportive everyone is. Looking forward to future discoveries!

In work led by Georgina Benn from Bart Hoogenboom's lab, we show that Membrane Attack Complexes (MACs), part of the immune response to infection, kill E. coli bacteria by mechanically destabilising the outer membrane.
