Congratulations to @AlexBoRNA who presented the 2025 Colworth Medal Lecture today! Alex discussed how his work positions viral replication organelles as tractable systems for dissecting the biophysical principles underpinning RNA selection and turnover #BiochemAwards

What an amazing feeling having a cohort of Biotechnology students @cebcambridge applaud after my last lecture of the Term! Moments like this remind me why I love teaching every bit as much as doing research.

How to find fantastic new #RNAs? The J2 antibody is the gold standard to detect, map & enrich dsRNAs. Co-led by @CharlesBNader, Kevin Juma, Ankur Bothra & Steve Leppla’s lab, we visualize how J2 recognizes dsRNA and define its epitope, specificity & bias. doi.org/10.1101/2025.0….

@FrankSobott @British_Airways Agreed. BA service is abysmal, poorly trained and incompetent staff. The only appealing factor was the fact that BA has their vast presence at Heathrow, and one would hope they’d look after their customer base. Yet, they’ve been so unhelpful, there’s no point in using them.

BA has just demonstrated yet another level of incompetence @British_Airways - 6 hours kept on a plane bound for Montreal, kicked out all passengers at midnight at the airport without accommodation and any support offered.

@Davidbhella @British_Airways Absolutely shambolic! I’m trying to get through the BA customer services, I just can’t quite fathom the scale of their incompetence/callousness towards their own customers! Avoid at any cost if you can.

@corcoran_lab @British_Airways Will do, Jen! Was hoping to meet some folks from McGill, but no luck. Let’s see if I can retrieve my suitcase (or ideally it will make it with me to Montreal tomorrow) and whether I can check in for my flight tomorrow (today that is)
