We have TWO PhD studentships available in our lab in KCL Physics, starting October 2023.

I thought it was a joke but… apparently not 😐. What were they thinking ???

L'enquête est édifiante... "49% des femmes scientifiques disent avoir été «personnellement confrontées à au moins une situation de harcèlement sexuel au cours de leur carrière" lefigaro.fr/flash-actu/la-…

A voir au 25 Rue de Rivoli !

I will be recruiting post docs in the coming weeks. If you are an immunologist interested in using fancy microscopes and machine learning based analytics to study immune cells, you should apply!!

Remarkable reproducibility of #gastruloids, Thomas Gregor; not only surprising precision but also scaling arxiv.org/abs/2303.17522. OK in a system w/ fixed boundary conditions (Bcd #Drosophila) but in a system that creates its own boundary conditions like #gastruloids? #BigQs

Reminder! few more days to submit an abstract (and get early bird fees) to the Société Française de Physique General Congress 3-7 July 2023 in Paris! Check out the keynote speakers here: indico.ijclab.in2p3.fr/event/8021/ and the mini-symposia on #Biophysics #Mechanobiology #Information in #Biology

Oh I believe we are so much more than Twitter twins by now… we are lab twins ! 👯‍♀️👩🏻‍🔬👩🏼‍🔬

Want to look @ lymphocytes polarizing at the #immunesynapse... in LIVE ?! Here is a detailed protocol to do so with microfluidics (Pinon Léa and I know it by heart...) and that works with both cell lines and primary B and T #cells (which are both cool cell types, of course)🤓🔬

We are hiring! Come study B cell biology in autoimmune and neuroimmunological diseases with us! lanzlab.com #hiring #postdocposition #stanford #immunology #autoimmunity #antibodies

It is still time to register and submit an abstract for the symposium organised by SBCF & GDR ImaBio in Giens, France from 14 to 17 November. Three full days of microscopy & cell biology 🔬! More info here: sbcf.fr/en/event/sbcf-… Please RT🤗

Et si vous ne pouvez pas venir, les chercheur·es s'invitent chez vous ! 💻RDV demain soir pour des sessions de speed-searching en ligne, de 18h à 20h : nuitdeschercheurs-france.eu/?2023#speedsea…

We are hiring! forum.image.sc/t/research-eng… We are looking for a bioimage analyst to work within the core facility, but collaborating on the projects of the users of France-Bioimaging (that is: roughly all France). imaging.

We have a postdoc position open to study bacterial nanomachines at the structural level using cryoEM/ET 👀👇. Your have experience in such approaches and you want access to a Titan and 2 Glacios microscopes (and more coming) ? The job is for you. research.pasteur.fr/fr/job/postdoc…

An international multi-language survey spearheaded by #eLifeAmbassador Haage VC is asking #postdocs about the reasons behind their early departure from research groups. Take the survey and help the group address the postdoc crisis: elifesciences.org/inside-elife/0… PostdocVoice

Women faculty feel ‘pushed’ from #academia by poor workplace climate The gender gap in faculty attrition worsens after tenure, according to study. #WomenInScienceDay #WomeninSTEM brnw.ch/21wGSd2

Check out our new methods chapter detailing how we use DNA-based tension sensors to quantify antigen extraction and internalisation in the B cell immune synapse! These tools can be easily adapted to study force-mediated endocytosis in any cell model.

We’re hiring! We have a BBSRC-funded postdoc position Imperial College London Imperial Life Sciences, starting 1st July, to develop DNA-based tools to measure single-molecule forces in cells. Advert coming soon. Informal enquiries are welcome!

Lennon-Duménil and colleagues find that DCs can sense shape changes associated with migration, that can modify their migratory and immunoregulatory properties. Read it here: rdcu.be/dKcRH nature.com/articles/s4159…
