Mitch wins poster prize at Genome meeting

Eschewing the usual Lorne Protein conference this year, Mitch and a small hardcore band of transcription people headed for the Lorne Genome Conference - same location, different science! As well as the chance to hear Phil Gregory from Sangamo talk about designer zinc fingers, Mitch was able to win a prize for his poster on protein design using RanBP-type zinc fingers. Well done Mitch - will help pay for your rent increase!

Former lab member becomes a dad

Gonzalo Durante (Gonn), a visitor to the lab from Spain in 2007 (wow - time flies!) had a busy week last July, when he (a) got married, (b) defended his PhD thesis (successfully) and (c) became a father. You can see the whole family. Now, *that* was a stressful week! He is currently being a father-at-home, and planning his next career move. Maybe we will see him in Australia again?

Have been off X for months but had to log in to see response to AF3. I am much less smart than the authors - but am I (and Erin) the only ones to think that the helical afros that it makes out of IDRs is totally weird? Am I missing something?

Amazing story from the lab down the corridor - @RezwanSidd working with Sandro Ataide and Ruth Hall in @SydneySOLES at @Sydney_Science - now they will be thrown into the gladiators' pit I suspect with the other protagonists that prowl this landscape! 🙂 Great piece of work!
