And it's out! Some nice biochemistry reveals how the yeast Seipin compelx organizes in vivo across LD formation www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

I am presenting!! Come hear about lipid droplet biogenesis and the protein that makes it all happen, seipin.

Come hear what amazing science is being done by Israeli scientists in Israel and abroad! Oh, and I will also be giving a talk on Lipid droplets!!🤩🤩 www.scienceabroad.org.il/life-science...

Mentors play such an important role in the career and confidence of budding scientists... Many congratulations to Rebecca and Erik, winners of the first Dunn School Marvellous Mentor Award. Another great initiative by our student association! www.path.ox.ac.uk/news-article...

New from @MorieLAB.bsky.social! Neutral Lipids restrict DNA mobility!! 1. This has important implications for DNA repair in vivo, 2. also in vitro when you measure DNA breaks using the comet assay, beware! 3. And, we provide a fast new protocol overcoming this issue 😍 doi.org/10.1111/boc....

Excited to be giving a talk tomorrow at Karolinska. If anyone is in the area, do come check it out! news.ki.se/calendar/sem...

In ancient Egypt, people drank low alcohol beer and wine to avoid the parasites in "raw water." The old graves, which I excavate, are full of children who died from diseases we now can vaccinate against. You are ghouls for promoting this garbage.

Tonight is the ‘lluvia de peluches’ at Real Betis. The annual tradition of stuffed toys thrown on to the pitch and collected for disadvantaged children ahead of Christmas. An estimated 15,000 toys are expected for collection.

You are all alone

Wonderful use of science www.nature.com/articles/s42...

Nikita Sergejevs, Pedro Carvalho and colleagues find that that the intramembrane protease SPP conducts topology surveillance of CYP51A1 by initiating quality control of incorrectly inserted molecules. Highlight: journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/... Article: journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/...
