Thank you @rosemaryjcater.bsky.social for a fantastic visit to UQ’s Institute for Molecular Bioscience!! Wonderful day chatting about the spectacular science in Brisbane, and squeezing in some time to visit the local fauna.

Little one is obsessed with "Random Walks in Biology" (deceptively small as most biophysicists know) We should start with something easier, like partial differential equations?!

Spam conference emails finally made me chuckle! Though the mass spec team does look a bit sketchy…

For something new and different, I'll be speaking at the 2025 #PEGSEurope meeting in Lisbon about producing membrane proteins at scale. Looking forward to the conversations!

Shockingly disappointed in this impulse buy. So many simple chemistry mistakes… Love an easy read, and 100% support accessible science, but this is more frustrating than fun.

Hungry thanks to cinnamon rolls on the March issue of Nature Structural & Molecular Biology... Think I'll have a snack while reading about NaDC3 (@danengw.bsky.social), yeast CerS complex (@arnemoeller.bsky.social & @flofroehlich.bsky.social), and human CerS6 by our own @tomaspascoa.bsky.social
