Both will work on our UKRI-funded programme, using molecular- and biochemical-approaches to understand how tick-borne Anaplasma can interface with, subvert, and make a home within eukaryotic cells. jobs.ac.uk/job/DLQ590/resear… jobs.ac.uk/job/DLQ258/resear… Feel free to get in touch!

Absolutely thrilled to be one of the 68 Round 8 Future Leaders Fellows! Massive thanks to @BristolUni , @wbif_bristol , @Berger_labs , Borko Amulic, and Lesley, Ben and Jing at the Tick Cell Biobank - very much looking forward to uncovering how tick-borne bugs subvert host cells!
Today we’re welcoming 68 outstanding researchers and innovators to the Future Leaders Fellowships scheme. Meet them here: orlo.uk/cZEmU #UKRIFLF

Please get in contact if you are interested in this technician role in my lab! We use multidisciplinary approaches (with an emphasis on protein and molecular biology) to study how neglected tick-borne bacteria (Anaplasma, mostly) interface with host cells
🚨 job alert 🚨 Research technician role available working at University of Bristol with @ICadby !!! Ian is a fantastic scientist working on some very cool bacteria. Deadline is 11/06/2024 jobs.ac.uk/job/DHU247/resear…

Recommending this exciting PhD project (exploring the structural basis for prey cell recognition by bacterial predators) in the Lovering lab. It's impossible to not be fascinated by these enigmatic bacteria and Andy is one of the most engaging (and nicest) scientists there is!
Apply now! There is an open position for a funded PhD in the lab of Andrew Lovering at @uniBirmingham using structural biology to look at the mechanisms used by bacterial predators. Deadline: 4 January 2024 🔗 findaphd.com/phds/project/st…

PhD scholarship alert! This project uses obligate intracellular tick-borne pathogens as tools for dissecting host cell biology. Main focus is Anaplasma - an amazing and rather unusual bacterium. Get in contact as there are other projects in the pipeline gw4biomed.ac.uk/unlocking-im…

If you are a student looking for a PhD position, please get in touch. We have a few advertised right now all around finding new vulnerabilities in TB. This is the kind of high-level merch you can expect working with us:

Great two days at Proteins by Candlelight. Always fun to chat about structural biology with peers and share ideas. Lots of interesting talks & posters. Also, thank you to the organisers for presenting me the Best Poster Prize for my poster on my work on an OMP from Bdellovibrio.

Advertised as protein structure-function but the project is multi-disciplinary - molecular-, micro- and cell-biologists all encouraged to apply (enthusiasm essential). Please feel free to contact me for a chat if you want to learn more!

I am really pleased to share something that @Lis_Lowe and my groups and some of our friends have been working on. Headline: We've identified the first mycobacterial endo-D-arabinanases. We've also found some new exo-D-arabinofuranosidases. Paper here:biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…🧵

Another chapter of the endless DolP saga. We are not entirely sure of its cellular role, but best read for yourself. Congratulation @gabiboeltero and @Jack_A_Bryant. Also thanks to our collaborators @HendersonLab, @GlinkowskaLab and @pmoyniha microbiologyresearch.org/con…
