We're celebrating, as ever, the start of Super Bowl 2025 with this Superb Owl.

Good to hear Tom Holland @therestishistory.bsky.social & Prof. Lee Elliot Major critique the dreadful DofE policy of defunding the Latin Excellence Programme which supports teaching Latin in UK state schools. Please sign & share this petition to stop the policy

And now onto @carlosantonplagaro.bsky.social from the Pete Cullen lab using BioID to understand the role of Rabs in fate determination in endosomal sorting - great work, Carlos! #UKMT2024
jezcarlton.bsky.social
Now @alex-van-vliet.bsky.social from Sean Munro lab talking about the Nebra sky disc and prehistoric star maps from Stonehenge. Is he at the right conference? Yes, he is! It’s a beautiful depiction of the yeast organellar architecture! Rab binding partners and involvement in autophagy! #UKMT2024
jezcarlton.bsky.social
Hope you all enjoyed the sandwiches! We’re back after lunch and Katy Yalci from @bmcarroll.bsky.social has cool data about a new lipid droplet protein and Blythe Wright from @yorkyeast.bsky.social tells us about how the VPS pathway contributes to neutropenia, using yeast as a model system! #UKMT2024
jezcarlton.bsky.social
Okay, now onto membrane damage and repair! Dylan Noone (@doryenbubeck.bsky.social lab) tells us more about how CD59 inhibits the MAC to limit membrane damage, and @patrycja-kozik.bsky.social tells us about a fascinating role for endosomal permeabilisation in cross presentation of antigens! #UKMT2024

Seasion 2 gives us some cool EM and new proteins involved in nuclear envelope remodelling from Thibaud Martial, Milosevic lab, and fab talk about how the flu M2 ion channel traffics to the plasma membrane and controls virion morphology from Carmen Figures Novia, @bealelab.bsky.social #UKMT2024
jezcarlton.bsky.social
FOMO for all membrane trafficking aficionados! Session 2 is ongoing! #UKMT2024
jezcarlton.bsky.social
Also great insight into Tango1 from Lizzie Lawrence (David Stephens lab) and new interpretations of ERD2 function from Jurgen Denecke. #UKMT2024. Apologies for all missing BlueSky handles!

We had a great first session - beautiful ET of ERES from @dr-downes.bsky.social, fantastic insight into Sec24 control of COP-II vesicle size from Xiaohan Li (@lizmillercu.bsky.social lab) fab speakers, all! #UKMT2024
jezcarlton.bsky.social
Well, it’s fifty cups of coffee and you know it’s on! #UKMT2024 has started! Looking forward to all the membrane trafficking talks from those not at ASCB!

Nice try, Google-AI, but this is not a paper we published!

Good luck to all students relying on Google’s AI overview for their essays/theses/papers…
jezcarlton.bsky.social
Looking forward to catching up soon!

Couldn't make @ascbiology.bsky.social annual meeting this year ☹️ - hope everyone has a blast. Check out Journal of Cell Science booth @jcellsci.bsky.social - we are the good publishers who care about the science community!

We have a very cool (I know I am biased😁) project for a computational biologist (postdoc) interested in cancer evolution in collaboration with Nicky McGranahan’s lab! Perfect opportunity to expand your computational skills too!
