@delbiancom.bsky.social received the Feltrinelli #Prize for her research on carbohydrate-based materials. She synthesizes well-defined #carbohydrates using automated methods. With her team, she engineers synthetic sugar chains that adopt shapes from helices to sheets. #chemsky tinyurl.com/f7xjj57d

🚀 Exciting News! 🚀 Our project developing therapeutic carbohydrate-based molecules to reduce risk of organ transplant rejection has been 🌟 awarded ca. 1 million CHF 🌟 from @snsf-ch.bsky.social 🎉 🥂 We are so excited to embark on this journey over the next 4 years! @unibas.ch #GlycoTime

Join us next Thursday for more #GlycoTime 🟨🟢🔺!! Our next EGC webinar takes place Feb 27th @ 4pm CET, featuring Prof. Gordan Lauc and Dr. Anabel Torrente López. Mandatory (free) registration for the webinar via the link in comments or QR code in the image​​. We hope to see you there!

A very warm 👋welcome👋 to new @unibas.ch PhD student Victoria who joined our team earlier this month! Victoria carried out a 6mo. internship with us last year during her MSc @unistra.fr & will continue her work on developing #GlycoTime anti-virulence therapies thanks to 💰 support @snsf-ch.bsky.social

This is happening at the University of Glasgow today, women in STEM have been asked to get together to write the word STEM so a drone can take a picture. In my opinion, this act will do nothing for the advancement of women in STEM. It is nice, it will be a good picture. #WomenInSTEM

🌟 Big welcome to our new team member, Arnaud! 🌟 We're thrilled to have Arnaud join our team @unibas.ch for his MSc Pharmacy project, where he will be 🔍 investigating the role of some new glycan structures in regulating bacterial virulence 🦠🧪 #GlycoTime #DrugDevelopment

Proud of @faezehjame.bsky.social and our latest paper on upregulation by #miRNA. miRNA upregulate protein expression of CD98hc, ST3GAL1 and ST3GAL2 in a coordinated manner. Regulation is bidirectional, changing the picture on how these #RNA work. #glycotime www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... 🧪

What an entertaining talk!! (🎥 15 min, link below) Using humour to address a difficult subject, Kannon is so engaging and effective at bringing awareness to representation in science and the language we choose to discuss our results. Plus ... FROGS!!! 🐸😍🐸😍🐸 #QueerInSTEM #AcademicChatter

Colleagues, Students, Postdocs, Collaborators and Friends of Sir Fraser Stoddart: I am writing with the sad news that Fraser passed away suddenly on 31 Dec (Australia time) while on holiday with family. No details yet on any services. He is irreplaceable.

Lovely evening for a ride! 😍☃️ #Lapland #Finland 🇫🇮

⭐ I am opening up a PhD Studentship at @ucddublin.bsky.social (start Sep '25) We'll be developing and studying innovative digital tools, eXtended reality, and AI interfaces to enhance learning experiences. Apply by 28 Feb 2025! Friends, please re-share! www.linkedin.com/posts/fungfu...

ANOTHER year?? we just had a year

Merry Christmas!! 🎄☃️ Best wishes to you and yours, and a happy and healthy start into 2025 🥂

Enjoying a quiet Arctic Christmas this year 💕🎄 #HappyHolidays #Finland🇫🇮

hello #chemsky, esp. people in education! do you have any stories of weird chemistry final exam traditions? did you make shrines to marie curie or have séances with mendeleev's ghost? and are you willing to exhume those memories for a possible @cenmag.bsky.social story? dm me or lmk in the replies!

Bad news for Swiss chemists, swissuniversities could not reach a "read and publish" agreement with Wiley journals and we enter a no deal situation. Hopefully the situation get resolved soon! www.swissuniversities.ch/en/topics/op...

Happy #Caturday 🐈💕🐈‍⬛💕

Looking for reviewers before Christmas

🎄☃️ Happy happy holidays!! ☃️🎄 #Illuminarium #Zurich🇨🇭

Congratulations @drglycoben.bsky.social !!!! From the fabulous Anne Dell, young investigator award 2024 at #BiochemEvents

🎄Christmas🎄 celebrations came a few weeks early this year 🎁☃️ Grateful for my 🇨🇭 family @mitchabelle.bsky.social & a partner that works magic in the kitchen, because I'm definitely a #ChemistsWhoDontCook

Since it's International Day of Persons with Disabilities, I wanted to share a handful of disability-related stories I've written. First, for @cenmag.bsky.social, I recently wrote about how a lot of labs are still inaccessible to disabled scientists: cen.acs.org/careers/dive... #DisabledinSTEM 🧪

Happy #Caturday (for one of us at least 😂)

Dear #comchem #glycotime folks 🍭, I need your help! Does anyone know a tool to build sulfated polysaccharides and get structure und topology files for GROMACS with CHARMM36 FF?🤔 Unfortunately Charmm-gui is placing sulfate groups in wrong orientations. Please RT! #moleculardynamics

I am very proud to share a long story on lectins and biofilm imaging just published in JACS Au by Eva and Lisa in cooperation with many colleagues such as @anneimb.bsky.social 😍 #glycotime #chembio #AMR please have a look here: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

This week we are so excited to welcome (back) to our team Pierre! 🤩 Pierre formerly spent a year with us during his MSc developing glycomimetics for a target of interest in transplant rejection 👨‍🔬 💊 He's returned to help us out with a few tasks before transitioning into a new role later next year 💪

At a faculty candidate dinner today, the hidden curriculum of faculty interviews came up? Our EDID committee will review what is communicated to candidates! What are things that you wish you were told/communicated clearer? Would love to hear from first-gen/faculty with non-linear paths? Please RT!

Christmas market season is officially under way! 🫕🎄❄️ #Basel #TisTheSeason

A big thank you to fellow #GlycoTime colleague (and former postdoc supervisor!) Prof.em. Beat Ernst for sharing his experience over many decades unraveling the complexities of carbohydrate-based drugs, and his future perspectives for the field. 💡 Dpt. Pharmaceutical Sciences, @unibasel.bsky.social

You ever have one of those amazing weeks when everything clicks in your multiple roles as an academic PI- scientist, mentor, parent, partner, colleague, psychologist, fundraiser, salesperson? (Yeah, me neither.) But screwing up each of these roles takes special talent. (I am that talented.)

I mostly see the protein sculptures I build in the lighting of my workshop. It’s fairly static and dull lighting. When they are close to being finished, I bring them into the house and enjoy watching how they change under different natural lighting throughout the day. They are so much more dynamic!
