update

Hi all


I realised that I have been away for a bit. I have a good reason for this 1) I am writing my thesis 2) I am writing and my thesis. 3) Yep, you guessed it - thesis writing. While it is a good excuse to turn down events, social activities you don't particularly like or birthday parties, I must say that I cannot wait to finish it. I have just got my corrections back from my two supervisors. At first glance, the corrections looks horrendous. Red everywhere! But when I stopped panicking, I realised most of it is typos. Generally speaking, my supervisors were quite happy with it. I know, I find it hard to believe it as well. Anyway, not long left

I am in the middle of applying for jobs eek! It is scary but also quite fun and exciting at the same time. Its an opportunity to explore what is out there, move to another city, move into a another career path. I am embracing it for a fact.

For now, that's it. See you soon.


P.s. For those who are interested, there is another NMR conference, Bruker on 14th November 2014 in Salford.

Normal TROSY

Normal TROSY


 ●Large proteins –Fast relaxation = Broader line widths –Decrease in spectral resolution

1H – 15N TROSY –Relaxation contributions from:

●Dipole-dipole (DD)

●Chemical shift anisotropy (CSA) –DD and CSA interfere either constructively or destructively –TROSY selects signals where destructive interference has occurred

●Cancelled out –Results in sharper signals and increased resolution

ICMRBS 2014

At the ICMRBS conference 2014 in the beautiful city of Dallas, USA.
Very excited to hear the latest development in solution-NMR and networking.

Future more comprehensive updates to follow ;-)

Biochemical society travel grant

I am delighted to have received a generous travel student grant from the biochemical society to attend the ICMRBS conference in Dallas, Texas USA.

I've just received support from the @biochemsoc General Travel Grants Fund to attend a conference.

Biotechnology YES

YES WE CAN! :-)

Hi folks

The Biotechnology Young Entrepreneurs Scheme (Biotechnology YES) is an innovative competition developed to raise awareness of the commercialisation of bioscience ideas among early career researchers. I hope you have already submitted a team together and preparing to come up with an idea. I had a few friends who did it last year and previous to that. I heard nothing but great things about this competition and furthermore, I think it could be a great way to step outside of your comfort zone and try something entrepreneurial. 

Here is a full timetable of what is to come
