🚨Hiring a 2yr postdoc in the lab work on muscle biology, genomics & ALS. Expertise in the above advantageous, but work ethic, desire to learn/develop and being a good scientist/person more important

Good collab with @droch.bsky.social so travel to CPH involved as well

John Gurdon, former Group Leader and Head of @cellbiol-mrclmb.bsky.social has died.
Despite calling himself a "total non-intellectual” his work to reprogramme somatic cells to pluripotent stem cells transformed the field of developmental biology.

Science friends,
I want to invite you to my short lecture at the @bmc-lmu.bsky.social next Tuesday, 7th of October
The topic is how mitochondria (yes, the powerhouse of the cell 🔋) keep our motor neurons healthy so we can keep moving our muscles until we're 100!
