So happy to have my postdoc work published in Nature Cell Biology! www.nature.com/articles/s41... This captures what I love about microscopy and cell biology: seeing something happen and asking, why is it doing that? #CellBiology @qmbci.bsky.social @qmul.bsky.social @cruk-cityoflondon.bsky.social

When I was a student moving from engineering to biology, I often heard that I was moving to a ‘soft science.’ Whereas physics and chemistry and mathematics had ground truth rules that were true no matter what, biology seemed like anarchy by comparison.

Delighted that we could contribute to this textbook 😀
