BSCB Newsletter cover, 2009, Autumn

My Meeting Report on the Keystone Symposia meeting entitled “Omics Meets Cell Biology” has been published in the Autumn 2009 issue of the BSCB Newsletter.

I attended the Keystone Symposia on Molecular and Cellular Biology: Omics Meets Cell Biology meeting from 25–30 January 2009 in the snowy heights of Breckenridge, Colorado, USA. The conference, the first Omics Meets Cell Biology Keystone Symposium, brought together leading experts in cell biology and “omics” technologies (genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, etc.) to discuss the ever-growing interface between the two disciplines.

I am pleased to have been invited to present a seminar at the Department of Biological Sciences, University of Warwick, UK. The seminar will cover my current work in the laboratory of Professor Martin Humphries (University of Manchester, UK), and it is titled “Analysing the complexity of cell adhesion: A proteomic approach.”

I completed my undergraduate degree at Warwick in 2004 so am really looking forward to seeing how the department has changed. Indeed, I was asked to present this seminar by Professor Lynne Roberts who was my supervisor for my final-year undergraduate research project.

The seminar is at 3pm tomorrow (27 November 2009) on Gibbet Hill campus and is part of the Genes & Development Research Interest Group seminar series.

Our recent Science Signaling Research Article is featured in the current Top 10 cell biology papers evaluated on Faculty of 1000 Biology.

The Top 10 are generated using papers added to Faculty of 1000 Biology over the preceding month. Papers are ranked according to their F1000 Factor, which incorporates both the number of times a paper has been evaluated and the ratings it has received.

In addition to the evaluation by Herbert Schiller and Reinhard Fässler (Max Planck Gesellschaft, Germany), our article has now also been selected and evaluated by Alexey Belkin (University of Maryland, MD, USA).

Our recent Science Signaling Research Article has been selected and evaluated by Herbert Schiller and Reinhard Fässler on Faculty of 1000 Biology.

Faculty of 1000 Biology is a literature-awareness tool that highlights and reviews the most interesting papers published in the biological sciences, based on the recommendations of a faculty of over 2300 selected leading researchers.

The October issue of UniLife, the University of Manchester’s monthly magazine, features an article reporting our recent Science Signaling Research Article.

UniLife aims to highlight the progress the University is making towards achieving its ambitious 2015 vision.
