You know what they say about never releasing on a Friday… what does it say about me that I’m releasing on the last Friday before Christmas? 😬

Anyway, ISOLDE builds for ChimeraX 1.9 are now up. Enjoy!

We’ll soon be #hiring #postdoc researchers and #PhD students in #super-resolution #microscopy, #cryoEM, #AntibodyEngineering, and #proteindesign.

Please get in contact if you're interested!

This award will allow my research group to solve the structures of #immune system components “caught in the act”, and allow us to design and engineer the next-generation of #antibody #therapeutics.

We have quite a range of PhD projects this year, covering cryo-EM methods, bacteriology/bioenergetics, and infection/antibiotics/vaccines. Would really appreciate if people can RT and share with their teams!
