Emma Silvester
Filed in: Past Postdoc
Emma completed her PhD in Andrew Turberfield’s Lab in the department of physics, studying the folding properties of DNA and RNA nanostructures. Following her PhD, she worked as a postdoc in the Division of Structural Biology in Kay Grünewald's lab, using DNA nanostructures to develop new tools for cryo-electron microscopy and tomography. In the Baldwin lab, Emma was using cryo-electron tomography to study the structural properties of membraneless organelles, formed by phase separation of intrinsically disordered proteins.
Mark Hickling
Filed in: Past Postdoc
Mark's research is focussed on membraneless organelles and their ability to selectively enrich for certain RNA molecules. He is investigating how the properties of the RNA and the proteins that constitute these structures affect this poorly understood selection process, and uses a combination of deep sequencing and bioinformatics to do so. Outside of research he is usually found either on the squash court or getting frustrated watching Arsenal play football!
Charles Buchannan
Filed in: Past Postdoc
Charlie works on biological NMR method development. He is particularly interested in using NMR to unpick complex disease-relevant questions. Recently he has developed a technique to extensively characterise pathogen-ligand interactions using Saturation Transfer Difference NMR, underpinned by previous work on NMR spectral deconvolution. He is now focused on further applying spectral deconvolution to other experiments, aiming to expedite biological work with NMR. Outside of research, Charlie competed in the Oxford-Cambridge Boat Race in 2019. After completing his PhD he was postdoc in the Baldwin lab for a year and is now postdoc in Marburg.
