Important update! Thinking of submitting a poster abstract? Do not delay. Due to the high (and exciting!) volume of abstracts we will likely close abstract submission BEFORE May 15. Submit your abstract ASAP!

Delighted to see the Metabolomics Society now officially on @bsky.app

@metsoc.bsky.social

There's still time to submit an abstract to give a talk in Prague!

Deadline extended to March 13. Visit metabolomics2025.org to submit.

Early registration rates are still available, don't delay! #MetSoc2025 #metabolomics

The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2024 The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2024 was divided, one half awarded to David Baker "for computational protein design", the other half jointly to Demis Hassabis and John Jumper "for protein structure predi...

In his Nobel Prize lecture, chemistry laureate John Jumper told the story of how he and his team developed AlphaFold2 – an AI model that has predicted the structure of almost all proteins known to humankind.

EASTBIO CASE: Inflammatory Fat: Understanding how the immune system drives adipose tissue dysfunction using lipidomics at University of Aberdeen on FindAPhD.com PhD Project - EASTBIO CASE: Inflammatory Fat: Understanding how the immune system drives adipose tissue dysfunction using lipidomics at University of Aberdeen , listed on FindAPhD.com

If you are interested in doing a PhD in metabolomics/lipidomics this might be for you - www.findaphd.com/phds/project.... Its a chance to use state of the art mass spectrometry imaging to study (and maybe treat) inflammation in adipose tissue at the Rowett Institute with Biotech company Sitryx.

Considering a fellowship (from post-doc to senior fellowships) in nutrition, metabolism, microbiology, appetite regulation or diabetes (and more!)? Consider the Rowett! Great colleagues, building, world class equipment and competitive start-up packages. Picture: recent Carnegie Lecture on Food Sys

Was a privilege, and Holly was great. Thanks as always for the hospitality!

A joyful PhD student holding a glass of champagne is posing with her thesis examiners after successful defence of her work.

🎉 Congratulations to Dr. Holly Leather on successfully defending her PhD thesis! The first PhD student to pass in my group, rest to follow soon!

Thank you to examiners @nikrat.bsky.social and @rdunwin.bsky.social for making the viva such an enjoyable experience. Here’s to Holly’s bright future! 🌟

Travel safe Dave, looking forward to catching up 😁
