If you are looking for a cool PhD project on lysosome biogenesis under supervision of an excellent mentor in a thriving research community, this is your chance ungermannlab.bsky.social👇

We offer a PostDoc position for a fully funded project on lipid-encoded #lipidtime protein quality-control checkpoints at the Golgi: great collaborators, excellent working & living conditions & benchspace with a view ;) Please share and repost!

Holy smoke. What ultimately happened???

Very happy to share our recent preprint describing #Golgi protein quality control #PQC in mammalian cells. #proteasome #ubiquitin #ChemBio Fantastic work by @joaodiamantino.bsky.social and team! #proudPI @unidue-zmb.bsky.social @imprs-lm.bsky.social

Für seinen Beitrag zum Verständnis der zellulären Kraftwerke (Mitochondrien) wurde Nikolaus Pfanner in die Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei, die nationale Akademie der Wissenschaften Italiens, aufgenommen. Zudem erhielt er die Walter Neupert-Medaille. ufr.link/auszeichnung-pfanner @cibss.bsky.social

Thrilled to share our latest work showing that the bridge lipid transport protein ATG2A transfers diacylglycerol (DAG), and some TAG/PA, from the ER to LDs, thereby recruiting DGAT2 to drive local TAG synthesis, promoting LD expansion while protecting ER membranes. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Welcome @bohnertlab.bsky.social 🥰

Such a worthy recipient. Maya is not only a great scientist but also a fantastic mentor and a rich source of inspiration.

Quiescent cells stay alive by eating less. They downregulate amino acid transporters to match reduced demand. When this brake fails -> cell death & disease. More info in our new paper 👇

Finally, someone has solved a real problem with AI! No more having to take a paper in the format for a journal that rejected you, and reformat it for a new journal. Well done!! formatmypaper.com

GBM Lunch: July 16, 12:30 Speaker: Volker Haucke (@volkerhaucke-lab.bsky.social, @fmp-berlin.de) Title: "Lipid control of membrane dynamics in health and disease" Chair: Johannes Herrmann (RPTU) Organized by GBM Study Group "Cellular Organelles" gbm-online.de/gbm-lunch.html #GBMLunch

Just stumbled upon a German tongue-twister song by Bodo Wartke… about the sexiest cell organelle. Yes, endoplasmic reticulum - your moment has come. youtube.com/shorts/EP5pd...

Incredibly grateful to my mentors, lab members, and generous collaborators who continue to inspire our work. Thankful also to microbial cell surfaces and tomography, which continue to deliver the excitement everyday!

We're on the cover of @science.org this week. Awesome work by @florentwaltz.bsky.social. #CryoET is reaching crazy resolutions inside cells, and this is just the beginning. Fantastic interpretation of the proton motive force by @verenaresch.bsky.social. Always a pleasure making #SciArt with you!🧪🧶🧬🌾

Amazing structure... www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... TOM complex and kinase... wait, something feels rather familiar here ;)

It’s been a tough few weeks. My 10yo daughter was diagnosed with a very rare, aggressive cancer called interdigitating dendritic cell sarcoma (IDCS). I’m reaching out to identify clinicians/patients who have encountered pediatric IDCS or other (non-LCH) dendritic or histiocytic sarcomas cases.

🚨🚨 We are proud to launch MemBioMed, a new international Master program offering interdisciplinary training in biomembrane research at 3 sites: Université de Côte d'Azur 🇫🇷 Università di Genova 🇮🇹 & Osnabrück University 🇩🇪. We offer 15 scholarships & encourage talented students to apply by April 6th ♻️🙏
