Mr Wickham

So nice to see Pierre's @pierrecaron.bsky.social highlight of our preprint (led by @lillianwu.bsky.social ) was selected by @jcellsci.bsky.social to include in their latest issue. Also, what a great initiative - ended up reading them all! prelights.biologists.com/highlights/c...

Looking down a still #Buttermere in the #LakeDistrict with views of the pines along the lakeside, Dale Head and Fleetwith pike are the two main visible hills. Bracken and Fox gloves cover the vegetation around this part of the lake. #landscapephotography #mountains #hills #summer #reflections #uk

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again. #Pinks #ProudBlue

Congratulations to Dr Noa Amin (times two since she was already a medical doctor but now has an amazing PhD)!!! #proudsupervisor Beautiful @icr.ac.uk award ceremony at the Guildhall

Now out! Led by @susana-sousa.bsky.social and Noa Amin, and thanks to our collaborators in the Harrington @icr.ac.uk and Stucki and Choudhary @jc4-jyoti.bsky.social labs www.cell.com/cell-reports...

Beautiful #pyrenees 😍. Totally refreshed and decompressed. Wonder how long that will last....

Congratulations 🥳 @alison-harrod.bsky.social for winning the oral communication prize at the Biochemical Society Alternative Nucleic Acid Topology meeting for her talk on SMARCA4 and G quadruplexes! 🎉👏🎉

And @lillianwu.bsky.social presented a poster with her PhD thesis work on CENPB!

Many of these were from the @icr.ac.uk conference, which was a great opportunity to catch up with colleagues. And drink beer.

Alison also presented her work as a poster (and will be attending the upcoming AlterNat Biochem Soc meeting if anyone wants to hear more!)

@kezlane.bsky.social Karen Lane presented work she did with @susana-sousa.bsky.social and Noa Amin on ARID1A and G4s (not her main project - watch this space for a project coming out soon on cohesin dynamics in SWI/SNF deficient cells)

A little shout-out to the lab, who have been out in force lately presenting their work! Starting with @alison-harrod.bsky.social talking about her work with Pedro Zuazua Villar and @naghamg.bsky.social on SMARCA4 and G quadruplexes

Hey, look at this story that our @postdockatie.bsky.social wrote! magazine.eacr.org/nobel-prize-...

This letter appeared in the Bloomsburg PA Press Enterprise this morning. I am assured the writer is who he purports to be, an Air Force veteran.

Congratulations @kezlane.bsky.social and @alison-harrod.bsky.social and thanks to all our fabulous collaborators!

These are two awesome, talented postdocs! Lucky to have them in the lab 😍

If you like chromatin remodellers and centromeres, this might be of interest. In it, we generated omics data from isogenic PBRM1 cell lines, which we hope is of use to the community, freely available (when evil forces aren't messing with the publicly funded websites 🙄) www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Lab retreat 2024! We had days of excellent science, food, ideas, food, games, food, discussions, food, and brainstorming. And snacks.
