Congratulations! 👏👏👏
Great lab, great mentor, exciting project!
I am excited to share our most recent work collaborating with @centriolelab.bsky.social and @stearnslab.bsky.social to look at the ciliary base of mammalian multiciliated cells w/ cryo-ET, XL/MS, and U-ExM www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
Happy to share our latest work spearheaded by super talented PhD student Muyang Ren now out as a bioRxiv preprint.
'Motile ciliophagy promotes ciliary recycling under stress'
www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
Congratulations! Best of luck for your future projects!
As I set up the lab, I am looking to host motivated postdocs & students. We can explore potential funding routes together, primarily JSPS Fellowships (www.jsps.go.jp/english/e-fe...), and evaluate other scholarship/grant options. If interested, my DMs are open—please reach out! (3/3)
Just over two weeks until our 55th @bscb-official.bsky.social @gensocuk.bsky.social @ukcilianetwork.bsky.social e-symposium Tuesday April 21st 2026 15:00-17:45 BST! Join us for 6 talks from the latest rising talent!! Free & open to all.

Fantastic talk of @lacarlson.bsky.social using great cryo-electron tomography to reveal how clever arboviruses are! @pasteur.fr @umeauniversitet.bsky.social
Closing date is 19th Feb so why not go for it to enjoy the rain in London!
Fantastic talk of @sheinerlab.bsky.social today @pasteur.fr about these crazy ribosomal mitochondrial RNAs in #Toxoplasma!
🚀 Nous avons accueilli les étudiant·es de l'Université Paris Cité, Sorbonne Université & Université Paris-Saclay pour une session de présentation des Cours Pasteur qu’ils pourront choisir pour leur Master 2

Nice multiple-team effort shedding some light on the intriguing expression site body (ESB), the key to antigenic variation in trypanosomes
@fariatrypslab.bsky.social @zephyris-science.bsky.social @tiengwe-tryplab.bsky.social with Jack Sunter and Keith Gull among others
Very proud of the achievements of the consortium!

One night in Hong-Kong... 15 years ago. RIP Spencer
IFT imaging in trypanosomes was made possible thanks to Spencer and his team who trained Johanna Buisson and many others, for example for FRAP development
