The poster pitches at #NWOCHAINS were an absolute firework of great science. We learned about #antivirals, #organocatalysis, #MolecularMotors, #EnzymeEngineering, #photocontrol, #odor detection, sensing of #bacteria, #recycling, #batteries, #QuantumDots, #vitrimers, #BoneRegeneration, native #MassSpectrometry and #biomaterials. Always one of my highlights of the conference.

The molecular motors that power bacteria's flagella are incredible. I had heard of these before, but the research is more advanced than it was when I was in grad school. They can image the individual subunits of the molecular motor with a cryoTEM and extract a 3D model of the motor. It's like a nanoscale electrical stepper motor. Amazing!
I really enjoyed this Smarter Everyday video about it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VPSm9gJkPxU&t=1

A collaboration led by #SFUPhysics researchers Chapin Korosec and Nancy Forde has created the first synthetic protein-based motor that moves like a Roomba and uses biological reactions to fuel itself. Their work adds to our understanding how molecular motors work in nature, and how they might be used in the future for medical applications.

In our #JCSCellBiologyofMotors Special Issue, our ‘Cell Scientists to watch’ interview is with Jordan Beach and Patrick Oakes. Check out the interview to find out more about their career paths, where they see the mechanobiology field heading and advice for new PIs.
When asked about the advantages of running a joint lab, Jordan’s response was:
“More people, more fun, better science. I think that's what it really comes down to.” -
