This week we discuss the exocyst with Dr Hannes Maib @hannes_maib a Post-Doctoral Researcher at the University of Dundee @dundeeuni!! He explains the complexities of the exocyst as well as the exciting biochemistry and binding assays used to understand its formation. In addition Hannes speaks candidly about starting working in a new lab as a Post-Doc, his views of hierarchical journal systems and how preprinting can help ECR take back ownership of their work in a great discussion with our host Dr Jonny Coats.
