Really proud of my sister’s sustainable knitwear business. She’s making some bold statement pieces! www.etsy.com/uk/shop/Grac...

If you're attending the Materials and Molecular Modelling Hub #MMMHub conference this week, go listen to Jordan Dorrell: "Sensible Asymmetric Units for Crystal Exploration". These are new methods in crystal structure prediction aimed at better efficiency for complex structures. #compchemSky #ChemSky

Coming home in the rain, under a grey sky, to sit beside a comforting fire, to moan about weather, work, the government, the youth of today, picking up the paper to moan about that too, while knowing that I wouldn’t choose to live anywhere else. That’s what makes me feel English. Not waving a flag

Double celebration on our floor @oxfordbiochemistry.bsky.social with @guifengwei.bsky.social from the Brockdorff lab and Dounia and Sherry from Fisher lab having their papers published today! And I hear there is more to come... www.nature.com/articles/s41... www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Really cool talk by @nmriley.bsky.social on glyco mass spec just now at the @cecamevents.bsky.social meeting on glycans in Cagliari. Check out his group’s cool work here: www.riley-research.com/research

Assistant Prof post in bacterial genomics @unibirmingham.bsky.social Come and join us!! @imibirmingham.bsky.social www.jobs.ac.uk/job/DOO184/a...

Bit under the weather today, so stayed at home to write a paper…..instead I’ve made an image of a Lego bacterial outer membrane.

Yes it’s the end of the working day & I’m tired-grumpy - but people’s manners have really taken a nose dive. On a bus, one young man has his iPad on so loudly we can all hear the movie he’s watching, the young lady two seats in front has her booted feet up on the seat next to the one she is sat on 😡

Had a delightful couple of hours at the @ashmoleanmuseum.bsky.social this afternoon. Always blows my mind that it’s free & on my doorstep. Highly recommend to all with a love of art & history.

Bonkers that Curtis Jones was left out of the England squad; utterly mind-boggling. #YNWA

YNWA 💪🏾

Join us in Thessaloniki, Greece from November 9-13, 2025, for the thematic meeting "Understanding Peripheral Membrane-Protein Interactions: Structure, Dynamics, Function and Therapy"

Last week, we had the pleasure of welcoming Prof. Syma Khalid. PhD representatives of the IRTG board organised a week of talks & events. Syma shared her expertise in MD simulation, science communication & insights into her own research career. Thank you for such inspiring days! @sykhalid.bsky.social

This Frankfurt bar is pretty judgemental (but makes a fair point). Back from a really fun week.

Awesome work!

Always fun to catch up with Lukas Stelzl. Lukas is a group leader at the Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz and an alumnus of @oxfordbiochemistry.bsky.social. Delighted to hear of all his success.

Carol Robinson on Desert Island Discs - have a listen friends: www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/... An inspirational scientist & friend. An example of combining scientific excellence, courage, hard work and really importantly; kindness. (Yes I’m biased, but it’s true nevertheless) @kavlioxford.bsky.social

The secret life of wasps! @timcoulson.bsky.social and I chat to Seirian Sumner about her pioneering work on wasps.

Charity shield tomorrow - the agony of premier league football is upon us again. For me aside from the football itself, I love the interactions with my dad. WhatsApp messages from him with ‘your grandmother could have scored from there, and she’s dead’ etc. Roll on start of season.

Breakfast with all my friends again. 🧐

It's more important than ever for students and educators to stay informed and proactive. That's why you're invited to our upcoming webinar “The Future of Graduate Education in Biophysics" September 4, 3:30-5:00PM USA Eastern my.biophysics.org/events/calen...

Was just at the always delightful Rose and Crown in Oxford with @philbiggin.bsky.social. Learned tonight that a spoonerism on ‘Hoptric’ can be very unfortunate as we asked for Two hot…. 🤦🏽‍♀️ Much embarrassment

‘Whether or not’ - urgh. Don’t do this folks, please. ‘Whether’ is sufficient - the ‘or not’ is not needed. 🙏🏽

Hope this test series can serve to bring some unity within India between different religions more generally. It took, Hindus, Muslims and Sikhs (my apologies if I have missed a religion) in this very united Indian test team to deliver. Please take this forward, folks in all spheres.

Might actually expire watching this test match. It’s been nice knowing you all.

Move your feet!! #cricket.

How are we supposed to do any work this morning with the test match poised as it it? @mjafreeman.bsky.social - watching?

This test match will be the end of me. England batsman not moving their feet, ball moving around all over the place, only 35 runs to get. This is too much for my ticker

Joe Root - wow

Why does Harry Brook bat like he’s got a train to catch?

A little clip from our episode with Ray Pierrehumbert @climatebook.bsky.social about his research on exoplanets. Full episode here: youtu.be/oqcxlO5Lc_A

We’re losing this test match. So disappointing.

What an innings by Akash Deep. Very impressive. #cricket

My colleagues @stannescollege.bsky.social getting ready for graduation today - Prof Steve Puttick as Dean of degrees and Prof Chris Grovenor standing in for our Principal, Helen King. @steveputtick.bsky.social Very many congratulations to all graduating today! 🙌🏾💪🏾

Bloody cricket is vexing. Get the tailender out FFS, so I can get on with my day. 😡

Well done Ben! 🙌🏾 This further highlights the strength of microbiology and bacteriology in our department. @oxfordbiochemistry.bsky.social

It’s my 4 year anniversary of being back at @oxfordbiochemistry.bsky.social. It’s been loads of fun. Great colleagues & students. Some challenges - the tutorial system is unique & takes getting used to (even tho’ I was a stipendiary lecturer in the past), but it’s hugely rewarding. The city is magic
