Excited to kick-off our new Microcosm Earth Center center for environmental and #climate #microbiology in cooperation with Philipps-Universität - Many thanks Angela_Dorn HMWK Hessen, Thomas Nauss Thomas Nauss, councillor Michael Kopatz @Stadt_Marburg and all other guests for your warm congratulations!

Paper Alert 🚀!!! Join our molecular time travel! Resurrection of billion year old #enzymes by Luca Schulz, Georg Hochberg, and SYBORG together with Oliver Mueller-Cajar from NTU Singapore shows how primeval #Rubisco was prepared to deal with oxygen: s.gwdg.de/xh2hyF

Super excited to share my 1st first-author publication out today in Science Magazine, in which we resurrect billion-year-old enzymes to study the evolution of Rubisco. Let me tell you how a 100 amino acid protein facilitated the rise of oxygenic life. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Congratulations to Luca Schulz and SYBORG/Georg Hochberg/Oliver Mueller-Cajar team for this amazing publication🥳🥳

Check out this preprint from Beau Dronsella & SYBORG on the efficiency of engineered one-carbon metabolism 🌱🔎

I am very grateful to EMBO for awarding me a PostDoc fellowship for my work in the SYBORG at the Max Planck Institute for Terrestrial Microbiology on new-to-nature pyrenoids and bottom-up synthetic biology. I truly feel honored.

Very impressed by Max Planck Institute for Terrestrial Microbiology - internationally visible focus on microbiology and synthetic biology together with @SYNMIKRO and the University of Marburg.

Our study on implementation of the β-hydroxyaspartate shunt in E. coli and P. putida to increase biomass yields for growth on ethylene glycol is out now in #Metabolic #Engineering Elsevier ! Congrats Lennart Schada von Borzyskowski 🎉🍾. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Congrats 𝗡𝗶𝗰𝗼𝗹𝗲 𝗣𝗮𝗰𝘇𝗶𝗮 and 𝗗𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗱 𝗔𝗱𝗮𝗺 !1st 🏆🏆🏆 prize, and special prize "Health" by CSL Behring, in the MAFEX idea contest Philipps-Universität - We are so HAPPY for you guys! mpi-marburg.mpg.de/metabolomics/h… mpi-marburg.mpg.de/metabolomics/h…

On our birthday, we also want to say thank you to our community: our amazing researchers & staff at our Max Planck Institutes! Thank you for your incredible talent, dedication, enthusiasm, passion & hard work - we couldn’t do it without you!🤗👏*Now let’s all have some cake*!😉

Greetings, did you know that there are only a few studies showing bioproduction from formate. Find out how we expand this list by engineering Cupriavidus necator to produce crotonate from formate. Big props to Enrico Orsi for his leadership. Read his tweetorial for the story🔥

Three years of PhD paying off! We just published a route for the synthetic reduction of formate. Thank you to our collaborators from SYBORG, Max Planck Institute for Terrestrial Microbiology, Bar-Even Lab, Gonzalez Research Group, @festo_global, ITMC Aachen and MPI CEC! nature.com/articles/s4146…

SPRIND ruft zur Teilnahme an der SPRIND Challenge „Circular Biomanufacturing“ auf. Insgesamt 40 Millionen Euro stehen bereit für die Entwicklung neuer biotechnologischer Verfahren zur integrierten Verwertung von Abfallströmen in Produktionsverfahren sprind.org/de/artikel/cir…

ERC Advanced Grant für Martin Thanbichler, Mikrobiologe an der #UniMarburg. 2,1 Millionen Euro EU-Fördermittel bringen die Erforschung von molekularen Schaltern und ihrer Biologie voran. 👏Glückwunsch! @SYNMIKRO Max Planck Institute for Terrestrial Microbiology ➡ uni-marburg.de/Q3BLzZ 📷Henrik Isenberg

Very happy to see our paper about the #RNAylation out in nature! This demonstrates that #phage research can still enable exciting and novel discoveries! Special thanks to kathaRiNA Höfer, as well as Jaeschke Lab and UrlaubLab for contributions and support!

Hot off the press: Read how @Shan2luo from our lab constructed a new interface between electricity and biology: powering life-like system directly with electricity might open up new possibilities for #synbio sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Happy to share my first pre-print out of my post-doc in the SYBORG at the Max Planck Institute for Terrestrial Microbiology.
