🚨 New research drop! A new study from @andreichabes.bsky.social ’ group (with Tomomi Tsubouchi + Erik Johansson) overturns a long-standing assumption about how nucleosides speed up DNA replication. Paper in @narjournal.bsky.social: doi.org/10.1093/nar/... Huge congrats to Praveen Pandey et al.! 🎉

🔬 Thursdays = Science + Community at our Department! 🧪 Today’s talks at our In-House Seminar: ✨ Tran Vinh Hong Nguyen on mitochondrial protein POLDIP2 ✨ @josyterbeek.bsky.social on Gram+ Type IV secretion systems #InHouseSeminar #Biochemistry #StructuralBiology #UmeåUniversity

🎉 Big congratulations to @rberntsson.bsky.social on his promotion to Full Professor at the Department of Medical Biochemistry and Biophysics, Umeå University! 👏 A well-deserved recognition of his outstanding contributions to research and education. #AcademicExcellence #UmeåUniversity #Biochemistry

🔬 MedChem Seminar Series Today we welcomed Björn Forsberg (Linköping University) for an excellent talk: “Methods for Quantified Feature Detection in Cryo-EM Reconstructions.” 👉 More on Björn's research: liu.se/en/employee/... 📅 More seminars: www.umu.se/en/departmen... #CryoEM #StructuralBiology

🎉 Big news from our Department! Our researchers have secured 32.1 MSEK in new research funding from Cancerfonden, @vetenskapsradet.bsky.social, and the Faculty of Medicine. This support will power cutting-edge biomedical research. Huge congratulations to all involved! #ResearchFunding

🚀 Come and Join Our Team! The @paulinawanrooij.bsky.social lab is looking for a #postdoc to study proteins that safeguard mitochondrial DNA stability in eukaryotes! 📅 Apply by Nov 28: umustipendie.varbi.com/en/what:job/... #PostdocOpportunity #Biochemistry #Mitochondria #AcademicJobs

Thursday means time for our Department’s In-House Lunch Seminar! 🧪 Today, Yuyang Lin from @lacarlson.bsky.social lab gave a fascinating talk on cryo-tomography of viral replication complexes—a deep dive into the structural biology of viruses! #InHouseSeminar #Biochemistry #StructuralBiology

We’re live! The Department of Medical Biochemistry & Biophysics at @umeauniversitet.bsky.social explores life at the molecular level: infection and structural biology, gene expression, mitochondria, neurodegeneration & biophysics for climate change. Follow for updates & collaboration! #Biochemistry
