Delighted that our most recent work exploring how perchlorate salts influence vitrification and the low temprature limit for life is now out in @CommsBio! rdcu.be/dH8Yq nature.com/articles/s4200… @UKAstrobiology #Astrobiology #Cryobiology #Mars #Microbiology #Calorimetry

Excited to share my latest preprint just in time for #FEMS2025 ! This preprint is the start of a series of work I've been doing trying to understand the biophysical limits to life in extreme environments. So come have a chat at FEMS if you're interested in extremophile biophysics

I am thrilled to share the first paper published from my PhD! This paper explores the growth and physiology of a bacteria in ammonia with implications for the habitability of ammonia-water environments on Earth and icy moons such as Enceladus. nature.com/articles/s4159…

Donald Trump was elected by Americans to defend the interests of Americans. The question we, as Europeans, must ask ourselves is, are we ready to defend the interests of Europeans?

Accounts article by @sarahvs99 & I on the roles of layered minerals in emergence & preservation of proto-proteins & implications for detection of biosignatures (on Mars) is now out in @ACSPublications in a special issue by @preinerin & @ClaudiaBonfio pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Congratulations to Dr Stewart Gault (@TAstrobiologist) who has been awarded a grant from @RoyalSocEd to investigate the limits to the life of bacterium P. halocryophilus in low-temperature environments. 🦠edin.ac/3WlTmXf #astrobiology

Very happy to have won a small grant award from the @RoyalSocEd to investigate the mechanisms underpinning the low temperature limit for life!

Best wishes to all who are participating in Take Your Dog to Work Day today

Wrote up a quick summary of our latest paper just to give it some context. blogs.ed.ac.uk/the_irish_astr…

Preservation of Bacillus subtilis’ Cellular Liquid State at Deep Sub-zero Temperatures In Perchlorate Brines astrobiology.com/2024/05/preser… #astrobiology #Mars #extremophile #microbiology

This work was conducted in collaboration between myself, @CharlesCockell, and Fernanda Fonseca @INRAE_TRANSFORM. I'll write a summary blog soon, but there's much more already in the works, hopefully ready to share at #EANA2024

@Tatton_Hour @Astrobiology_OU Congrats Dr. Tatton!

Great time last week down at @DiamondLightSou with @LiamJPerera and @CharlesCockell looking at cold perchlorate solutions! @UKAstrobiology #astrobiology #Mars
