If you're a non-UK scientist who wants to come to the UK for a postdoc, this year's Newton Fellowships are now open. You'll need a lab to host you (which could be me, but truly, could be any PI, so get in touch with someone you'd like to work with!)

Newton International Fellowships | Royal Society
This fellowship is for non-UK scientists who are at an early stage of their research career and wish to conduct research in the UK.

Are you interested in #trypanosomes #biomolecularcondensates and/or #geneexpression? We are looking for a highly motivated postdoc to work with with us in the beautiful city of York!

Please share!

Excited to share our gene tagging toolkit! It's a protein tagging system that maintains regulatory elements. Originally built for Kinetoplastids but adaptable to any system - no parasite-specific sequences in vectors. Prefect for studying post-transcriptional control! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
