Mudgha is in the money…

Mugdha Bhati, a smiley PhD student from Jacqui's lab, has been busy winning prizes and fellowships to attend a couple of crystallography conferences. She was awarded a Maslen scholarship from the Society of Crystallographers in Australia and New Zealand to go to the IUCr congress in Osaka, and the School Greg Ralston Travelling Fellowship to go to a crystallography workshop in France. She's got a few new crystals to work on as well!

Liza publishes in Nature!

After a long reviewing process, Dr Liza Cubeddu, a National Breast Cancer Foundation Fellow in Jacqui's lab, has just seen some of her work finally appear in Nature (PubMed). This paper describes a new human single-stranded DNA binding protein that is essential for genomic stability - the work originated from Liza's previous life in St Andrews. Congratulations Liza!

New (honorary) lab member…

At the seemingly unreasonable time of 1:33 this morning, Thu brought a small bundle of baby girl into the world, with her husband Cuong standing (?) nervously by. She has been named Tho, and had all the expected parts on delivery (nothing worse than waiting for back orders). As reported by Cuong: " We walked to the hospital @ 18:30 on 12/2/08 and walked home @ 18:25 on 13/3/08. Not “Two become One” as a song :D, it is “Two become Three” just after 24 hours…. Congratulations Cuong and Thu!

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!
