Day 1 of the winter semester. Good luck to all of us @vschtpraha.bsky.social.

At EMBL @events.embl.org , they know how to conclude a conference. #EMBLProtein

It's 93. Come and chat on Thursday. #EMBLProtein

Hiking time with Hlouchova lab during our GACR project retreat in Jachymov. A lot of discussions on protein-RNA interactions under probiotic conditions🦠

🥇 Václav Verner (PORG) won 2nd place in the world 🥈 Matěj Pěnička (Gymnázium Nad Alejí) 🥈 Ondřej Michal (Gymnázium Botičská) 🥉 Adam Horák (Gymnázium Hranice)

🗣️ We are pleased to announce that our 2024 Annual Report is out and for the first time in English! ➡️ czexpats.org/en/about-us/...

New publication out on the evolution of protein-RNA interactions. Put together with Klára Hlouchová (@sciencecharles.bsky.social) during a lovely Czech spring. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Poster is up and I've tried hard to match my t-shirt with the poster title. We're in the front hall, No. 24. Visit us, there's more air than around the posters in the side hall🫠 #EBSA

My temporary office at #EBSA in Rome.

My flight to Rome delayed by 12 hours. Saying goodbye to day 1 of the #EBSA conference and I'm hoping to make it for day 2!

Heading to #EBSA in Roma and packing my poster to a luggage. Not a fan of poster tubes 🫣 Full text arxiv.org/abs/2503.21357

For Czech readers: The Prague administration has once again shown its incompetence - this time by failing to manage basic demographic data. As a result, young students are paying the price when trying to get into high schools. www.eduin.cz/clanky/nafou...

English-speaking colleagues welcome! Summer’s around the corner, and if you're in the mood for a break from the lab or the office, pop by Cafe Prostoru on June 10 to grab a beer and have a chat 😎 If you’re planning to join us, let us please know via the link above 🙏

I'll be there😎

For Czech readers: Some of the brightest Czech minds who made it to the finals of the @czexpats.bsky.social Award have short research summaries featured in the latest issue of @vesmir.bsky.social vesmir.cz/cz/casopis/s...

We are pleased to announce that the next speaker in the ProSE seminar series will be Dr. Klara Hlouchova with a talk on "Protein Structure Before LUCA" May 13, 4PM CET Registration link: tinyurl.com/prose-seminar4 Please share!

Our research group studies #ribosomes. Our favorite region of interest is the ribosomal tunnel. We realized that it has been missing a Wikipedia page until now, so we decided to create one. Read, edit, enjoy👇 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ribosom...

🌟 #PI_Forum Brno #5: Academic Leadership: The Big Picture is ahead! How does one lead a team vs. an institution? Join Irena Radová (MUNI) & Jiří Přibáň (Constitutional Court) to explore leadership in academia and beyond. 🗓️ 13 May 2025 📍CEITEC MU, room 211. Register: czexpats.org/en/udalost/p...

12th PI forum by @czexpats.bsky.social, today about science communications with @pavlahubalkova.bsky.social.

Sakuras in front of @vschtpraha.bsky.social Happy Easter!

🌍 Proč vědci často zabalí kufry a frčí dělat vědu do zahraničí? Je to vůbec k něčemu dobré? ❓Na otázku od iniciativy Czexpats in Science * nám odpoví Radim👇

Why does it matter? Uncovering ribosome origins might one day help us tackle antibiotic resistance. Fundamental science, fascinating questions, and a bit of time travel. 🌍🧬 📖 Read the full interview on the UCT Prague website: www.vscht.cz/press/interv...

Joe et al. have a fresh preprint on the MARTINI simulations of the #ribosome. arxiv.org/abs/2503.21357

Nearly 35 years ago, Paul Ginsparg created arXiv, a digital repository where researchers could share their latest findings before they had been systematically reviewed or verified. If arXiv stopped functioning, scientists would suffer an immediate and profound disruption.

now we will move with bacterial ribosome by coarse grain simulations with Josef Cikhart from @mhko.bsky.social group at @vschtpraha.bsky.social

Job alert ! I am looking for a postdoc to work on "computational investigation of ion-effects in ribozyme catalysis" to work with me in Paris (France). 1-year contract funded by @agencerecherche.bsky.social, with possible 2nd year in collab. with P. Jungwirth @iocbprague.bsky.social #compchem #RNA

Here we unexpectedly find that the ribosomal protein S20/L26—identified at the dawn of ribosome research but later deemed a biochemical artifact—is indeed a genuine component of the large ribosomal subunit. More on this ribosome content variation is here: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Posters of Aneta and Ondra at XXI Discussions in Nové Hrady are ready to welcome visitors. Come and learn about peptide deformylase and protoribosome.

Are there any #MARTINI folks who can explain, how ELNEDIN elastic network became ElNeDyn? Is it just a typo propagation or there is something more behind it?

We at @digital-discovery.bsky.social are very happy to announce a new paper type called "Commit". Inspired by version control systems such as git, the idea is that if you have an update on a short and pointed publication, you can send it as a commit. We envision commits to be co-cited with the

I have one open PhD position. Maybe one of the last PhD positions in the lab as I'm planning changes in what we do and how we will do it some five years from now. I'm offering freedom (pun intended), respect, an interesting project, and a good full time contract w. health insurance.

We are happy to announce the new members of the Editorial Board of Communications Biology! Have a look below to see their profiles 🔽🧵 We are looking forward to working with our new colleagues! 😊

We're hiring a postdoc! Applications from any nationality welcome. Projects around protein folding in cells, ribosomes, chaperones etc. 4 yr contract, fantastic research environment @crick.ac.uk crick.wd3.myworkdayjobs.com/External/job...

Women leave academia at higher rates than men at every career stage, and attrition is especially high among three groups: tenured faculty, women in non-STEM fields, and women employed at less prestigious institutions, a #ScienceAdvances analysis finds.

Panel discussion with stellar guests, moderated by stellar-as-well @maseklab.bsky.social #ksp2024
