I got hit by some rather sudden and extreme financial hardship so if anyone is in need of remote wetlab contract research, strictly BSL1, do let me know. Currently scrambling for gigs. Plant, Bacterial, Archaeal Bioeng Custom Lab Hardware Turn Key Genetic Design Please RT 💚

👋🏻 I'm absolutely glee-ridden to finally see our study on the RNA- and DNA-binding anti-CRISPR repressor Aca2 published in @Nature. 🥳 This unassuming little helix–turn–helix protein packs quite the punch! 🧶👇🏻 rdcu.be/dNl45

In our new paper at Cell (@CellCellPress), we reveal secrets of how the third form of life, archaea, make energy. We uncover new lineages of hydrogen-using enzymes, both minimal and complex. These help archaea thrive in all sorts of extreme environments. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

I am thrilled to share my latest work, out today in @Nature. This project started ~18 months ago as a blueprint for my own lab, which will start at @ISTAustria in July, but not have been possible without the support of @davidwtaylorjr & the whole team nature.com/articles/s4158…

Cellular repair of DNA breaks enables editing of the human genome. Do human cells repair RNA breaks, and can we use it to edit transcriptomes? Our work with @ANemudraia and @WiedenheftLab is now online in @ScienceMagazine! #ScienceResearch science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
