Hot off the press! We have investigated how a promiscuous RNA-binding protein/RNA chaperone affects large RNAs using SHAPE/DMS-MaP in vitro and in virus-infected cells. Check out our studies of the transcriptome-wide effects of the viral RNA chaperone: academic.oup.com/nar/advance…

If you're looking for a super exciting postdoc in a great location the lab of @jonathan_grimes from @OxfordStrubi have 5year position. We'll use SPA and cryo-tomography to look at how the influenza virus works. Please DM if you've got any questions. my.corehr.com/pls/uoxrecruit…

Super happy and grateful for all the great discussions and stimulating questions so far! If you want to learn about therapeutic oligos and their delivery come and see mine and @SebastianSjstr1 posters (T02 / T08) in the next session tonight @GBM_eV in #Mosbach!
