It was a pleasure! Thanks for your help Brett!

A great tribute to David Stevens, a terrific cell biologist and missed by so many of his friends and colleagues. As they say 'one of the good guys'. journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/...

Remembering David Stephens (1971–2024)

In the autumn of 2024, David Stephens, a prominent member of the UK cell biology community and a brilliant scientist, leader and mentor, passed away. With his pragmatism and natural authority, combine...

Coordination between ESCRT function and Rab conversion during endosome maturation | The EMBO Journal

imageimageEarly endosome maturation requires Rab conversion and ESCRT function; however, how these processes are coordinated remains largely elusive. This study proposes that Rab conversion in both C....

Finally my first author preprint at Cullen's lab is out! Amazing collaboration with Kevin and @brettcollins.bsky.social where, by using dedicated proximity proteomics, Biochemistry, crystallography and structural prediction, we show new aspects of human Retromer complex acting as hub for RAB GTPases
