The Francis Crick Institute
@TheCrick
We’re the Crick, a research institute in London. We’re no longer posting on this account, but you can find other ways to stay in touch in our pinned post.
- Disability should never prevent anyone from pursuing a successful career in research. Four researchers, including our own Syed Mian, share their experiences in this piece from @CR_UK highlighting the importance of having the right support.
- Crick researchers have found that certain aggressive lung cancer cells can develop their own electric network, similar to the body’s nervous system. This can allow tumour cells to go ‘off grid,’ making them harder to treat.
- The scientists of today meet the potential scientists of tomorrow. To celebrate International Day of Women & Girls in Science, we're sharing some interviews from one of our family events last year featuring Crick scientists @tait_frankie and Federica. #IDWGS
- Watch Hannah, one of our fly facility technicians, and Lucia, our fly food chef (aka media prep technician) share what it’s like working with flies in the latest episode of @UKRI_News ‘101 Jobs that Change the World’ series.
