IMPACT OF PARENTHOOD ON UNIVERSITY EMPLOYMENT. Line graph shows how the probability of holding a research position changes from four years before to seven years after having children.

Becoming a parent is much more detrimental to women’s academic careers than it is to men’s

Exciting to see our time-resolved #cryoEM device developed by @stemuench.bsky.social & colleagues in action at the CCPEM Spring Symposium!
Brilliant talk by @scarfflab.bsky.social showing how it helped to visualize the elusive actomyosin primed complex & demonstrate the swinging lever mechanism.

Swinging lever mechanism of myosin directly shown by time-resolved cryo-EM - Nature A study using time-resolved cryogenic electron microscopy reveals the swinging lever mechanism of myosin, providing information on the molecular basis behind the production of force and movement by my...

Mavacamten inhibits myosin activity by stabilising the myosin interacting-heads motif and stalling motor force generation Most sudden cardiac deaths in young people arise from hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, a genetic disease of the heart muscle, with many causative mutations found in the molecular motor beta-cardiac myosin...
