Very proud of Bader Rayan for leading this work uncovering RNA as a regulator of peptide assembly and phase behavior, reshaping the bioactivity of virulent amyloids and host-defense peptides at the interface of bacterial virulence and innate immunity. In @elife.bsky.social: doi.org/10.7554/eLif...

Antimicrobial amyloids are amazing!! So much we can learn from frogs!!! 🐸 cross-β fibrils, α-helical supramolecular structures, or multi-layered nanotubes. How crazy is that??? Big thanks to Fabio and co-authors, the cryoEM facility at the CSSB and EMBL P14 @ DESY PETRA-III.

My colleagues have put together a nice book chapter on amyloid polymorphism. Have a look! 🧪🧬🧶 #amyloids #cryoem @landaulabcssb.bsky.social @meytallandau.bsky.social @cssbhamburg.bsky.social @stratifa.bsky.social

We had the pleasure of hosting Said Azaizah, Shay Sosnovsky, and Ella Zinger for a short stay at @cssbhamburg.bsky.social It was a joy to see your curiosity, enthusiasm, and smiles brighten up the lab. Thanks Alex, @hiijanina.bsky.social and the rest of @landaulabcssb.bsky.social for mentoring!

What a way to end the night ✨ Hamburg truly is beautiful! #FFFatDESY2025 #FunctionalFibrilFriends

Thanks Vojtech for the picture! it was a great and fun meeting!

Some impressions of from Day 1 of our symposium #CSSBSymposium2025. Looking forward to the poster session and harbor cruise this evening. @marylynaddo.bsky.social @bosse-lab.bsky.social @topf-lab.bsky.social @jankosinski.bsky.social @meytallandau.bsky.social @landaulabcssb.bsky.social

Our latest research is out 📄 ! This study provides an interaction map of Sla2 & the regulatory proteins Sla1 & Pan1, predicted by AI modeling & confirmed by molecular biophysics. @lucasdefelipe.bsky.social @meytallandau.bsky.social @emilgustavsson.bsky.social @embl.org @cssbhamburg.bsky.social

Huge congratulations to my first PhD student—and truly one-of-a-kind scientist and person—Einav Tayeb-Fligelman, on accepting a faculty position at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem! Reminiscent of the path - from Technion's synchrotron trips, to celebrating your new role in my CSSB/DESY lab💕

On Friday we reunited to celebrate the first PhD student of @meytallandau.bsky.social which obtained a Professor position at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Congratulations Prof. Eynav Tayeb-Fligelman!

Exciting News! We’re thrilled to announce the first Functional Amyloid Meeting at DESY! Join us for a deep dive into the latest breakthroughs in functional fibrils, with a spotlight on amyloid molecular and cellular mechanisms and their biomedical applications. landau-cssb.de/meeting-of-f...

We cannot wait to host the first-ever Functional Amyloid Meeting @ DESY, taking place September 24–26, 2025, at the Centre for Structural Systems Biology CSSB in Hamburg, Germany. Check out the speakers on Amyloids from virulence & immunity to signaling, catalysis & evolution. landau-cssb.de

What an incredible event with ~100(!!!) participants! Special thanks to Annemarie, Georg, Judith, DESY ITT, et al., as well as CSSB for hosting and Helmholtz & Life Science Nord for their generous support. Looking forward to the butterfly effect: new ideas, connections, and collaborations to come!

Check it out! We were filmed for the project "Dreh meinen Film", a filming workshop for girls aged 12-15 interested in science. www.cui-advanced.uni-hamburg.de/oeffentlichk... Super proud of the girls who created this amazing video. 😎 lecture2go.uni-hamburg.de/l2go/-/get/v...

Looking forward to our upcoming Academia-Industry Matchmaking Workshop, focused on infectious diseases, on Feb 6, 2025, 16:00-20:00 @ CSSB, DESY, Hamburg, Germany. Registration is free but required at:https://lnkd.in/eQx9mxKn Thank you Helmholtz, Life Science Nord, and the HIHeal project!

Congratulations to Nimrod Golan and our co-authors—Amit Parizat, Orly Tabachnikov, Eilon Barnea, William P. Olsen, and Daniel E. Otzen—for summarizing years of research on the extraordinary resilience of FapB and FapC amyloids in Pseudomonas biofilms.🍻🎉🥂 doi.org/10.1016/j.jb...

Thanks Hauke for the support! of the UHH and by you personally! It was an honor, and so much fun and excitement, to be part of the Cluster of Excellence DFG assessment for “Gateways to Health: How Pathogens Shape Global Life”! See pictures at: www.linkedin.com/posts/kathar...

Thanks to everyone for coming and being amazing! Special thanks to Sam for the Feuerzangenbowle and for keeping the place from going up in flames. 😄🔥
