Ars Electronica festival is approaching with the project "Coexistence with the SARS-CoV-2 virus" ars.electronica.art/planetb/en/coe… by YJ OH, Hyoju Sabina Ahn and Myungin Lee UC Santa Barbara.

"Coexistence with the SARS-CoV-2 Virus" by JKU researcher YJ OH, Hyoju Sabina Ahn & Myungin Lee aspires to transform the nanoscale of the relationship between SARS-CoV-2 & human molecules into an interactive audiovisual simulation at Ars Electronica 22 jku.at/aefestival

After an excellent #habilitation talk about the use of #AFM in #microbiology, Yoojin Oh YJ OH from the Institute of Biophysics finally received her certificate: jku.at/en/news-events… Once again, congratulations!

BREAKING NEWS: The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2022 #NobelPrize in Physics to Alain Aspect, John F. Clauser and Anton Zeilinger.

Researchers from HKUMed, University of Michigan & JKU - Johannes Kepler Universität Linz have discovered the pan-coronavirus antiviral activity and mechanism of molecularly engineered banana lectin (H84T-BanLec). It was found to be highly active against SARS-CoV-2 & its variants, such as #Omicron. hkumed.hk/f0d351

Mit einem ursprünglich aus #Bananen stammenden Protein könnte man künftig eine Art Universal-Wirkstoff gegen #SARSCoV2 in der Hand haben go.apa.at/J20YKeBU JKU - Johannes Kepler Universität Linz #Forschung #Medizin #Coronavirus

Check out the new paper from YJ OH and Peter Hinterdorfer on a banana derived lectin that binds to #SARS-CoV-2 #SpikeProtein. Did you ever think that bananas could help in treating #Covid?

Aktuelle #SARS-#CoV-2 Varianten haften schneller, länger, stärker, als jene Spielarten der Coronaviren zu Beginn der Pandemie JKU - Johannes Kepler Universität Linz #Medizin #Gesundheit go.apa.at/BAt7V04G

Our newest masterpiece 🤩 Why delta and omicron are so infectious !!

Increased infectivity of emerging #SARSCoV2 variants explained! Together with renowned international collaborators, scientists of our Hummer Lab found that Delta & Omicron mutants bind more tightly & longer to host cells than the early Wuhan variants👉biophys.mpg.de/2735962/news_p…

Congrats to Matt Sikora & Reza Mehdipour from our Institute, to YJ OH & the other researchers from the Hinterdorfer lab (JKU - Johannes Kepler Universität Linz), and to the scientists from PenningerLab (University of British Columbia) & Karolinska Institutet on this great work published in Nature Communications!👉nature.com/articles/s4146…
