@wakati_robot and my review "How Did the Archaellum Get Its Rotation?" just published in special issue dedicated to Howard Berg frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

My first paper is published! My undergrad project completed remotely in the @BeebyLab, special thanks to @Trishant_U and Morgan! Evolution of #Archaellum Rotation Involved Invention of a Stator Complex by Duplicating and Modifying a Core Component frontiersin.org/article/10.338…

Do you want to do a postdoc of phylogenetics/biophysics on flagellar evolution in Marburg, Germany? Do you want to do with flagella what Darwin did with Finches? I certainly would, but alas I'm too old. Get in touch with @KaHochberg! mpi-marburg.mpg.de/642026/Open-Po…

We got an HFSP grant! Team investigating the evolution of bacterial ‘tails’ wins prestigious grant imperial.ac.uk/news/219213/te…

@Teige_MP and Nayim's SctV/FlhA cytoplasmic domain structure published with Rouse, Rosenthal, and Holden labs. We tried to resolve the transmembrane domain, but like @LeaLabTweets @S_M_Lea (biorxiv.org/content/10.110…), it just didn't work out. Ho hum. LINK: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Socially distanced new @thermosciEMSpec Glacios + Falcon 4 delivery day at @imperialcollege!

Check out our new review for microbiologists, "CryoEM of bacterial secretion systems: a primer for microbiologists" onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.111…

Beautiful story from the Collinson lab showing how different periplasmic machines integrate: Sec and BAM associate!

Register now for "Bacterial Cell Envelopes" satellite meeting of @BritBiophysSoc -- only 80 slots available. I'll be talking about work on peptidoglycan and periplasm. Registration details will be posted at britishbiophysics.org and symakhalidresearchgroup.wordpress.com in the near future.

@Salmo_Lab Thanks, Marc. We're only trying to emulate the best!

@BeebyLab Congrats! Beautiful combination of genetics and microscopy!

Eli's paper on Campylobacter cell motility out! We're really proud of this study, where we found that helical cell shape has become entrenched: by preventing helical shape determination, we greatly diminish Campy's swimming ability. Campy motility has many inter-reliant aspects..

Huge congrats to Dr Eli Cohen as Research Co-I for award of an @The_MRC grant to continue his groundbreaking work in our lab at @imperialcollege Campylobacter jejuni's unusual swimming style!

The first ever visualization of CheY family binding to the outer rim of the C-ring? @flosirswish Florian's paper collaborating with the @JenalLab on CleD, a CheY homolog, binding the #Caulobacter C-ring just published in @MolMicroEditors! doi.org/10.1111/mmi.14…
