This is Cowley Road, which should be the bustling heart of East Oxford. Instead, it's extremely quiet with businesses either closed or closing early. This street is home to one of the largest concentrations of independent businesses in the UK. Horribly sad to see.

🛎 I will soon open the call for a 4-year #PhD studentship fully funded by Diamond Light Source and the University of Oxford. 🔬The project will involve #cryoEM and #cryoET studies of RNA viruses & glycoproteins, plus a valuable professional internship!

DELIGHTED that this is finally in print 🙌 Here, we study HMPV nucleoprotein structures and how they bind to the phosphoprotein - the essential cofactor of the viral polymerase. HUGE thanks to our great collaborators, and to the legendary @MaxxRenner nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

🚨Attention diderm enthusiasts 🦠🧫! Want to see the TolQR motor structure? Or why TolA is so alpha-helical? Or what happens when you mutate the centre of TolA to an intrinsically disordered sequence? Read our new paper for all this and more! pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.23…

Excited to share that the first paper from the Isom lab is now available on Biorxiv! (biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…). We have investigated YhdP at the molecular level to show that it forms an envelope-spanning bridge and that putative phospholipids are found inside this bridge!
