We were honored to host Prof. Chaitanya Athale (IISER Pune, India) this week for an inspiring talk on cytoskeletal dynamics and imaging. The visit concluded with a cozy lab gathering filled with great science and even greater conversations @athalelab.bsky.social #cellularnanoscience #zmbp #tübingen

🎓 Huge congrats to Shu Yao on her successful PhD defense! We're proud of her work and excited for what comes next! 🚀 #PhDDefence #graduation #cellularnanoscience #StructuralBiology #MolecularBiophysics #ZMBP #WomenInScience #AcademicMilestone

Congratulations to the #GreenRobust team for securing @dfg.de funding for the next 7 years to investigate plant robustness! 🌱 Special thanks to our very own Rosa Lozano-Durán @geminiteamlab.bsky.social and the co-spokespersons @thomasgreb.bsky.social and @kjschmid.bsky.social. Exciting times ahead!

New paper alert! 📄 We’re thrilled to share a new publication from our lab: "Monomers and short oligomers of human RAD52 promote single-strand annealing" Check it out: www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/... #DNARepair #RAD52 #MolecularBiology #SingleMolecule #PhDResearch #MassPhotometry #StructuralBiology

Great time at #SMBioDresden — old friends, new friends, and exciting science! #SingleMolecule #ScienceCommunity #AcademicLife #Dresden #MPI-CBG

Today is the day of Tubulin purification 🥹

Science runs on coffee, collaboration, and… Berliner! ☕🍩 Big thanks to Erik, for treating the team today. A great moment to recharge, share ideas, and enjoy the view from our lab! #LabCulture #ScienceCommunity #coffeebreak
