Jamie Wilson from the MRC PPU was one of the four joint winners of this year's poster exhibition by PhD students in College of Life Sciences entering their 3rd year. Jamie, who has trained as a pathologist, is currently a Wellcome Trust Clinical Fellow in John Rouse's lab. Jamie's poster described the molecular mechanisms and cellular consequences of the binding of the SLX4 DNA repair complex to telomeres – the ends of chromosomes. Jamie also showed that the mechanisms for localizing the SLX4 scaffold protein, and the DNA repair nucleases with which SLX4 associates, to telomeres are distinct from the mechanisms for localizing the complex at sites of DNA damage. Each poster prize winner received £125 so the beers are on Jamie!
