Our #mattertolife Fall Days have just started 👏🏻 Thank you @mpip-mainz.mpg.de for hosting us! @graeterlab.bsky.social @landfesterdept.bsky.social @weilgroup.bsky.social

This is a fantastic opportunity for students who want to pursue an integrated MSc/PhD Program! Our group is currently hosting two excellent Matter to Life students and we can only recommend this program! @mattertolife.bsky.social

Wonderful Symposium! Thank you so much for the great organization by @giulialavarda.bsky.social. It was great to spend time with our wonderful guests from @tue.nl and @unimainz.bsky.social @mpip-mainz.mpg.de

We are very excited for today's Mini Symposium together with our guests from TU Eindhoven and JGU Mainz! www.mpip-mainz.mpg.de/events/43038... Looking forward to interesting talks and many nice interactions! Many thanks to @giulialavarda.bsky.social for organizing this event!

Today, Dr. Yingke Wu, group leader of our Nanodiamond group, gave a wonderful lecture on Carbon Materials as part of the MPIP Lecture Series "Advanced Soft Matter Science." Many thanks to Yingke for sharing his knowledge on these fascinating materials! @mpip-mainz.mpg.de @yingkewu.bsky.social

The new science outreach chapter highlights the unsung contributions of polymers to everyday life. Honored to be part of this meaningful project and many thanks to the brilliant team who made this possible! #ScienceCommunication #Polymers #Teamwork

We developed an AND-gated chemiluminescent photosensitizer that only generates light inside tumor cells, activating under 2 cancer cell-specific conditions. Many thanks to Wenwu Peng @pengww.bsky.social from Seah Ling Kuan's group @seahling.bsky.social & our collaborators! shorturl.at/uXTg3

Two in one day: Congratulations to Raphael Meyer for defending his PhD today! 🎉 🥳

Congratulations to Yu-Liang Tsai for successfully defending his PhD today! 🎉🥳

We had a great time at our group retreat last week in Cochem on the Mosel! Good talks, fun activities, and plenty to explore. So lucky to work with such an awesome team!

Thrilled to be selected as a young scientist for the Lindau Nobel Meeting 2025! It's been an inspiring week meeting Nobel Laureates and brilliant young researchers. Many thanks for the support @weilgroup.bsky.social @maxplanck.de #LINO25 #NobelLaureates #LindauMeeting

Weil group goes Teufelsschlucht! 🏞️🦕 Braving the heat and having an amazing time on our group retreat with a paleontology crash course and a scenic hike through the woods with team-building games! #Teufelsschlucht #ScienceAndNature #GroupRetreat

Our cover for “Intracellular assembly of supramolecular peptide nanostructures controlled by visible light” by Yong Ren from David Ng's group was selected for the current Nature Synthesis issue! Many thanks to the team & collaborators! www.nature.com/natsynth/vol... @natsynth.nature.com

Congratulations, Kübra! 🎉 Well-deserved for your excellent research work!

Many stimulating talks & discussions @rsc.org Bioorthogonal & Bioresponsive 2025 last week! www.rsc.org/events/detai... Congratulations to Gonçalo Bernardes, who won the 2024 Corday-Morgan Mid-Career Prize for Chemistry & gave an excellent talk! www.rsc.org/prizes-fundi...

Excited to share our latest research published in @natcomms.nature.com, where we explore a 1,6-addition of thiols to N-alkylpyridinium for site-selective dual modification of proteins. Congratulations to the team! 👉 www.nature.com/articles/s41... #Bioconjugation @seahling.bsky.social

Our team has just published exciting work on intracellular peptide assembly to induce mitochondrial dysfunction & cell death in both 2D cell culture and 3D tumor spheroids. Thank you to everyone who contributed to this project! advanced.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.... @mpip-mainz.mpg.de

Congratulations to Yong (@yongren111.bsky.social) for winning an outstanding poster award at the recent Fudan-ACS Publications Symposium (OPBIS 2025)! Yong presented his recent work with David on light-controlled supramolecular peptide assembly in cells. www.nature.com/articles/s44...

Had a fantastic time at the Fudan-ACS symposium with fellow @jacs.acspublications.org editors & many top scientists. Pleased to reconnect with esteemed peers & alumni including a productive meeting with Guosong's group. Thanks to the organizers for an inspiring event! #chemicalbiology #biosensing

Congratulations to Yong Ren for defending his PhD yesterday! 🥳🎉 Excellent and outstanding research work!

Our collaborative project on a trimannose-HSA nanocarrier designed for active targeting to immune cells and liver is published! Thank you to an amazing team and our collaborators within the @dfg.de-funded CRC1066! www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... @seahling.bsky.social @mpip-mainz.mpg.de

Our article "Chemical Reactions in Living Systems", published in Advanced Science in 2023, is a #TopViewedArticle. Delighted that it is well-received by the community. advanced.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.... @wiley.com

Congratulations to Patrick Roth for defending his PhD yesterday! 🥳🎉 Excellent work and great defense!

Thrilled to share our newest paper by Yong Ren from the group of David Ng in Nature Synthesis, exploring light-controlled intracellular peptide assembly! @mpip-mainz.mpg.de

Excited to be on Bluesky now! Looking forward to connecting in this space with fellow researchers and science enthusiasts! 🧪🔬 @mpip-mainz.mpg.de
