Computational Genomics Researcher and Data Science Trainer specialising in Neuroscience, Endocrinology, Functional Genomics
Really excited to be able to share all our learnings from the Medical Research Council funded X-Net Interdisciplinary Research Network and our conversations with researchers, funders, industry and the public on how we can accerate and faciltitate interdisciplinary careers and innovation within UK institutions. Thanks Researchers14 for the opportunity and thanks to everyone who has contributed to the #XNet project and thier passion to support #InterdisciplinaryResearchers. A great team effort between MRC Weatherall Institute of Molecular Medicine MRC Human Genetics Unit at the University of Edinburgh MRC Protein Phosphorylation and Ubiquitylation Unit and Kavli Institute for Nanoscience Discovery, University of Oxford
👋 Join us at the next Researchers14 monthly meeting on Thursday 14 November 2024 to listen to Dr Charlotte (Charlie) George, X-Net Training Co-ordinator, talk about ‘X-NET: How we can sweep away barriers to interdisciplinary research’. 💡 X-Net Interdisciplinary Research Network is a cross-disciplinary training network of technical experts, research professionals and interdisciplinary researchers from the Universities of Oxford, Edinburgh, Dundee and Aberdeen who have been funded by the Medical Research Council (MRC) to investigate career barriers facing interdisciplinary researchers in the UK. Over the last 2 years we have assessed the career challenges facing interdisciplinary researchers through a survey, focus groups and interviews which highlight multiple issues that we’ve summarised in a ‘Wheel of Career Privilege’. Through consultation with the public, patients, funders, interdisciplinary and industry experts we've produced reports and a series of recommendations for funders and research institutes on how to accelerate and enable sustainable interdisciplinary and collaborative research environments. The interventions aim to drive mobility and exchange of ideas across disciplines and sectors, encourage nurturing collaborative environments for all researchers and make the evaluation of interdisciplinary individuals and teams more equitable. These recommendations and our ongoing work aim to accelerate the wider cultural and inclusivity changes required for interdisciplinary career paths to be supported and truly diverse interdisciplinary working to thrive and fast-track innovation.

I look forward to speaking at the next "Meeting of the Minds" event by Oxford Entrepreneurs, where I will share my journey from idea to initial funding. Raising money starting from a bold vision requires extraordinarily ambitious investors. After much scouting, I found that support in Oxford Science Enterprises, and I am deeply grateful to count on this amazing group. Working with them is adding so much to this whole experience. It will be wonderful to be on stage with Meric Sevgi Eren and Sally Dewhurst, and share some of the insights and lessons I have learned with aspiring entrepreneurs who are taking that first step. It has been a path full of hurdles and lessons, mainly learned by trial and error. I hope that sharing my experience will help aspiring founders avoid some of my mistakes, although I remain grateful for each one of them. See you there! G

#MeetTheResearcher Introducing Nicolas Ducrot this week from Lindsay Baker's lab. Nicolas is a postdoc researcher, working on membrane morphologies during bacterial death. Nicolas is interested in what happens to the bacterial membranes during cell death, especially when the cell goes through programmed cell death pathways. He is using cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) to image dying cells and identify phenotypes linked to different cell death pathways. In the future they aim at identifying proteins involved in the different death phenotypes, and, with the help of cryo-ET suited tags, track the localisation of these proteins during bacterial programmed cell death.
