On the surface, Toby Hendy and Tom Body are working on wildly different fields...but both are interested in walls. Or barriers.
To invade a plant cell, a pathogen has to punch its way through the cell's wall. One way they do that is by physical force. Toby studies how cells respond to something pushing on their surface. Hint: it involves needles. Very. Small. Needles.
Tom is all so studying walls - but for him the walls are a fusion reactor. How do you put the Sun in a bottle? Hint: it's tricky and a bit like an air bag. Tom is about to head off to the presitgious Max Planck institute.
So what's a day like on Fuzzy Logic? Keep an eye out for Toby's Youtube.
