University of Cambridge Pathology Postdocs

I'm putting together a list of accounts of current and former Cambridge Pathology postdocs - please reply to this thread if that is you and @ tag anyone else you know, thank you!

I have a new preprint! Uncovering hundreds of exogenous and endogenous RNA viral RdRp sequences amongst uncharacterised sequences in public protein databases biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 🧵1/6

Me and my RdRp folders after a great 8 years at @Cambridge_Uni . Massive thanks to @FirthLab (and for a bit @aj_velthuis group) for nurturing me into the scientist I am today. #goodbye

New preprint led by Sam Nguyen and Hazel Stewart from @FirthLab uncovers an entirely new protein function! Available now from @bioRxiv biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

New preprint: a fun collaboration for us on EMCV 2B*, and a first preprint for PhD student @StephenNTD! Work was led by Sam Nguyen and Hazel Stewart from @FirthLab

@pjie2 @Sdt36Suzanne @CamPathology That counts!

Are you a current or former postdoc or other ECR in @CamPathology? Let us know so we can follow you, and DM anything you'd like to share with a wider audience 🥼🧪🧫💻

This seminar will take place today! 👇🏼

If you’d like to attend, fill out the following doodle poll, and let us know if there are any dietary requirements. doodle.com/meeting/partic… 2/2

📣 Postdoc seminar series are back, tomorrow, Wednesday 15th at 6pm in TCR (lecture theatre). James Edgar (Immunology Division) will be giving a talk regarding careers in academia, including fellowship and lectureship advice. 1/2 🧵

If you are a postdoc or late stage PhD student at or affiliated with Cambridge and you'd be interested in helping with Part II supervisions in Pathology, please DM me with your email address for more info 🙂

📢How do viruses infect neuronal cells? We’re happy to share the first paper from the lab led by @HashimA44477600 and 🔥hot off the press @PLOSBiology! We found ‘hotspots’ in genomes of neurotropic human astroviruses that allow them to infect neurons! 🧵👇 dx.plos.org/10.1371/journa…

Excited to be hosting @PCHo_Lab in Cambridge today. For those in Cambridge, Ping-Chih's talk entitled, "Tailoring T-Cell differentiation and anti-tumour responses by harnessing mitochondrial dynamics" is today at 1pm – 2pm at #JCBC, and over Zoom. @MedCambridge @CamPathology

Great work from #campathpostdoc @SarahKWhiteside

Just two weeks left to apply for the @Cambridge_SBS MPhil in Infection Biology and Molecular Immunology. We have a great programme of skills training, plus an extensive list of world-leading labs to host your 36-week project. Full details: mphil.bio.cam.ac.uk/mphil-pathways… Spread the word!

@Postdoc_Academy @CamPostdocs @Cambridge_SHSS @CamArtsHums @Cambridge_SBS @CamDTP_BBSRC @cambridgeCSPC @CamNeuro @SCICambridge @campathpostdocs 📅Tue 9.30-11am is our first I’m a Researcher, What Next? event: Getting Started with Career Planning for PhDs🌟 Explore a breadth of career options and practical steps to help you take charge of your career 👇cam.joinhandshake.co.uk/events/26947/s…

Our latest preprint ‼️ 🚨 “Zika viruses 🦠 encode multiple upstream open reading frames in the 5′ viral region with a role in neurotropism 🧠” 😱😱😱 What does it mean??? 👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

#Microbio23 ain't over yet... Come along to my talk at 4:15 this afternoon in hall 9 to see if I can up my conference meme game. (And to hear about integrative virology to understand how herpesvirus hijack cellular #phosphatases ).

And to the victors the spoils 🍻 Great talks by @campathgrad and @campathpostdocs at #microbio23 today!
