Amazing opportunity to work in a great lab with a fantastic mentor and scientist (and collaborator!).
📢 calling prospective postdocs! Only a few days left to apply to join our growing group in the beautiful city of Edinburgh to lead an exciting project focused on how gene expression, RNA metabolism and cell signalling are all coordinated with changes in cell size.

Very excited to share this collaborative work on the structure of the Caulobacter bifunctional Tad pili motor. Great work by @IanYYen and @gregbwhitfield!
Beautiful work by @IanYYen from @PLynneHowell lab and @gregbwhitfield from @BrunLabCaulo in collaboration with @RubinsteinJohn revealing how the #T4cP motor works. This system has two platform proteins and only a single extension/retraction ATPase. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

We’re hiring! We have Wellcome-funded postdoc positions to join my group. The project will build on recent work on transcriptional cell size scaling (Swaffer et al. Cell 2023) to ask how gene expression, RNA metabolism and cell signalling are all coordinated with cell size (1/3)
