The feeling of superiority? I'll collect a high mag tomo tomorrow, so the answer may actually be revealed! (mysteries mysteries mysteries). 291
Reposted by Katie DownesFerdos Abid Ali @abidalilab.bsky.social · 27/11/2024If you’re interested in how molecular motors coordinate to power intracellular trafficking events (e.g. endocytosis), I’ve got a PhD position available to study this at vibrant Bristol uni. In this project, we will capture highly dynamic events by #cryoEM, single molecule imaging & cell biology. 🔬❄️🧪 15430
