Gene machines, one molecule at a time

We have an exciting new studentship available in the lab – we are looking for someone with an interest in using cutting edge microscopy to answer fundamental questions about the morphology and cellular interactions of RNA viruses. This is a 4 year, Royal Society-funded DPhil in Biophysics. For more info please see: Link.

- It has been a busy month for papers, check out our exciting new work on the E.coli RNA polymerase, published in Mol. Cell Link and Nature Communications Link. - We also have two new papers uploaded on BioRxiv! Link and Link. - Congratulations to Maabur for winning the Arthur H Cooke Memorial Prize, which is awarded for distinguished work by a first year research student in Condensed Matter Physics. Well done!!! - We say goodbye to our two MPhys students Amy Kent and Joseph Dolphin and wish them the best of luck with their exams! - Team Rapinidis is running the Oxford Town and Gown 10K, in aid of Muscular Dystrophy UK, on the 13th of May.
