Some acknowledgement of how less well-off countries like Vietnam handled this to avoid thousands from dying and the collapse of the healthcare system. This was the same 2002 with SARS.

First day back at work. Thanks to the @MRC_LMB Christmas raffle for bringing us Kylie in 2022. We say goodbye to Kylie and hello to Tom. Their smiles will keep us motivated through difficult experiments. Bring on 2023.

Which PI purifies the protein, collects the cryo-EM data, and processes the images, all by oneself? Nigel Unwin has been doing this in the past 45 years! He just published another single-author research article.

The raw data of human telomerase with recruitment factors by @AutomneNine and @ZalaSekne are out. The dataset is a great example for extreme conformational heterogeneity (Sekne,Ghanim et al., 2022; Ghanim,Sekne et al., 2024).

I remember seeing the first micrographs of these by @BJ_Greber . Amazing to see this beautiful structure in its final state! Congratulations @paulvictorsauer @BJ_Greber and everyone involved.

@WojtekGalej @maxewilkinson and I found a new spliceosome intermediate. Featuring heroic SPA analysis and model building by @maxewilkinson and fun biochemistry by me, we explain how the spliceosome achieves equilibrium between the two catalytic steps. 1/n
