Really fun visit to @cssbhamburg.bsky.social in Hamburg as a scientific advisory board member. It’s not over yet tho’ - more work for the board tomorrow.

What an incredible center, @cssbhamburg.bsky.social! In just 8 years, you’ve become an essential hub for structural infectiology. 👍💪💪

I’m thrilled to share my latest published manuscript, which summarizes my work in the exciting fields of structural biology and amyloid research. A huge thank you to @meytallandau.bsky.social and the team at @landaulabcssb.bsky.social for their shared efforts doi.org/10.1002/advs...

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!

With an amazing collection of posters highlighting the enthusiasm to amyloid fibrils, the first session for Functional amyloid meeting was extremely successful. Hope there are many more collaborations. #FFF@DESY2025 #FunctionalFibrilFriends

Hard to complain about the view at the conference dinner 😊
