Exciting news! I started the junior research group 'Complexes in Phage-infected Cells' at Helmholtz Centre for Infection research Infektionsforschung looking forward to explore new jumbo phage biology. We’re hiring! Join us for a PhD position.

Ever wondered if there was a pre-enzymatic role of the adenine-tail shared by so many coenzymes? We have, too! So excited about this preprint, 1st-authored by the 1st PhD student brave enough to join our lab: Delfina 🤗 Good sign for her defense next week. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Want to become my colleague? Come to Marburg, come to the Microcosm Earth Center, become a research group leader! Application Deadline December 15th 2024. stellenangebote.uni-marburg.de/jobposting/e6e…

Remember when patients begged for phages & doctors always said no? Times have changed. Gina Suh brought phage therapy to Mayo Clinic — turning wheelchair shopping conversations into walking patients. But making it work hasn't been easy. Here's her take on the challenges: 🎙️👇

We have two PhD positions available. Check bramkamplab.org for more information. A note for my US colleagues – if you have great students who want to spend time abroad:  The average PhD takes 4 years in Germany, which coincidentally coincides with a presidential term 😉
