I’m happy to share that 2 weeks ago I defended my PhD thesis at the @edinburghchem.bsky.social! Thanks to Julien Michel and @pstansfeld.bsky.social for a lovely viva. Massive thanks also to the best PhD supervisor and mentor @ppxasjsm.bsky.social 🫶🏼
Me, my PhD supervisor Toni and her son.

Such a pleasure to have the opportunity to teach at the very summer school I attended as a first-year PhD student 3 years ago 🤩 Thanks to @colegroupncl.bsky.social, @matteodegiacomi.bsky.social & @ppxasjsm.bsky.social for letting me tag along ☺️

All Roads Lead to Carbinolamine: QM/MM Study of Enzymatic C-N Bond Cleavage in Anaerobic Glycyl Radical Enzyme Choline Trimethylamine-Lyase (CutC)
The anaerobic glycyl radical enzyme choline trimethylamine-lyase (CutC) is produced by multiple bacterial species in the human gut microbiome and catalyzes the conversion of choline to trimethylamine ...

I had a great time presenting at the Tech me out / Bug battle 101 event of Pint of Science earlier this week! Thanks for the organisers for having me and thanks everyone who made it to the event and for asking really good questions. Hope to do it again in the future! #pint25

Can we do alchemistry with zinc? That’s the question we set out to answer in our paper tinyurl.com/j88h4n73. where we calculated binding free energies (RBFE) of known inhibitors with cross-class inhibition against serine- and metallo-β-lactamases, using open-source RBFE methods and metal models.

Protocols for Metallo- and Serine-β-Lactamase Free Energy Predictions: Insights from Cross-Class Inhibitors
While relative binding free energy (RBFE) calculations using alchemical methods are routinely carried out for many pharmaceutically relevant protein targets, challenges remain. For example, open-sourc...
