I'm really excited for this month's @csmb-scbm.bsky.social seminar! It should be a great set of talks 🧪
Ribosomes are highly conserved, but how did the present day ribosome come to be and what did ancient minimal ribosomes look like? If your curious, come hear Dr. Jessica Willi @willilab.bsky.social next Tuesday May 13th at the @csmb-scbm.bsky.social seminar series!
