After settling in during my first week, I’m happy to share that I have started a new position as an Associate Senior Scientist/Group Head at The Cyprus Institute of Neurology & Genetics!

Presenting PhD #4 from our group and it’s our first Dr Dr! 🙌🍾 🎉 Many congratulations Clinical Fellow Hyun Park on his successful PhD defence yesterday. Wishing him all the best in his clinical ACF post in Reading/Oxford. Thanks @ethanlmorgan.bsky.social & Prof Yang Shi for PhD thesis examination!

A bit late to post but glad to see our review on novel oncogenic mechanisms of the HPV oncoproteins. Great work from undergraduate student Denise in my lab @biochemsoc.bsky.social @biochembiomeduos.bsky.social #HPV portlandpress.com/biochemsoctr...

Great stuff @rhysmorganlab.bsky.social and coauthors @biochembiomeduos.bsky.social!

Last month Dr @ethanlmorgan.bsky.social was invited to the EUROGIN Congress in Portugal to present his research targeting HPV driven head and neck cancers. Look out for him at the @microbiologysociety.org annual meeting this week in Liverpool too! 👊

Had a great time at #EUROGIN in Porto earlier this month - thanks for inviting me to speak! Now time for #MicroSoc Annual conference in Liverpool! @microbiologysociety.org

Excited to report our latest research on new “molecular glues” that specifically lock the BRCC36 isopeptidase complex (BRISC) in an autoinhibited state and reduce interferon signalling. This first-of-its-kind approach could reshape how we target large deubiquitylase (DUB) complexes. rdcu.be/edRwF

Our departmental highlight of the week! @ethanlmorgan.bsky.social and PhD student Louisa Wootton review the current understanding around Ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like proteins in HPV-driven carcinogenesis in @natureportfolio.nature.com Oncogene out now!

Glad to finally see this online 🎉 Excellent work from PhD student Louisa in my group www.nature.com/articles/s41...
