Postdoc job alert in the Crick Institute in London. Are you interested in the actin cytoskeleton? I am looking for a postdoc to examine the cellular, developmental or physiological role of Arp2/3 iso-complex driven actin polymerisation. Multiple aspects available.

Congratulations Oriol and the team! Beautiful work!👏

Interested to see what each face will give you after swabbing and doing CFUs

A great meeting ahead for host and pathogen aficionados! Keynote speakers: Florence Niedergang (Cochin) and Raphael Valdivia (Duke)- plenty of opportunities for early career researchers to present their work and a very collegial and supportive network. Belfast here we go! Please repost.

Very relatable. Number of items and system is similar. Only difference is that I do account for the time every item needs (e.g. from 1h to one day and level of distraction allowed), I add deadlines to them too. sigh 😂

Scientists at MRC CMM & collaborators discover how Mycobacterium tuberculosis harnesses the immune system to cause infection.

I am thrilled to share that the work from @maxgg.bsky.social team @crick.ac.uk engineering a lung-on-chip from human iPSC is published in #ScienceAdvances @science.org in the new year.

Thanks Jenny!

Congratulations (again) Angélique!👏

I am happy to share that the work from @maxgg.bsky.social at @crick.ac.uk engineering a lung-on-chip from human iPSC is published in #ScienceAdvances @science.org in the new year.

Thanks Gabriele! 😀

Very happy to see this out! Work led by
@jaksonluk.bsky.social together with an amazing team @crick.ac.uk Jakson et al established a scalable and reproducible multicellular system based on human stem cells to mimic the human alveolar space in a micro-physiological system. Congratulations everyone!👏

Thanks Jeremy! 😃

Built to breathe: mini ‘lungs’ recreate individual response to infection Lung-on-chip device exposes earliest stages of tuberculosis infection, and opens doors to investigate diversity in disease progression and personalised treatment.

Lab-grown lung models have traditionally been grown from a mixture of cells, making it hard to tell how a disease or treatment will affect an individual person.

These new models by @maxgg.bsky.social’s team and AlveoliX are grown from a single person’s stem cells ⤵️ www.crick.ac.uk/news/2026-01...

We’re excited to share our latest study that reshapes our understanding of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) lipid composition, with major implications for drug discovery, immunity, and vaccine development.

Of course I like all the papers that we publish, but this is actually a very cool story, a great example of 'bush mechanics' in mycobacteria.

Academia is just a job. And you need 29.95 quid to find out why...

Good point. Much easier than that! I am at the state where I can only remember the name of the person and barely one word related to the email and cannot find it 😅
