This year's Annual Review of Virology is online and open access. Check out our review on the early phase of HIV replication, including testable models for nuclear import and uncoating. Thanks to Vojtech Zila, Barbara Müller and Hans-Georg Kräusslich. annualreviews.org/doi/full/10.11…

Interested in systems approaches in #infection and #immunology? Register now for our symposium (it's free!): bit.ly/3yIWzoM Jointly presented by FI EMS FoF2_UniHD and Field of Focus 1@HeidelbergUniversity

Amazing chikungunya fusion vid via the Kelly Lee/Iwasa labs. Hoping to see more cool fusion protein structure/dynamics work at this Physical Virology GRC/GRS. Apply here tinyurl.com/yckm8sv3 #cryoEM Gordon Research Conferences Ekaterina Selivanovitch Janet Iwasa Margot Riggi

PhD and postdoc positions available in the groups of H.-G. Kräusslich and Barbara Müller on #HIV and in the groups of Michael Lanzer and Freddy Frischknecht on #malaria #parasites CIID_Heidelberg Universitätsklinikum Heidelberg!

Micro-injection Tuesday! 🎵 Des ptits trous, des ptits trous encore des ptits trous 🎶

Choose your environment with care: New paper by Lara Gallucci (Fackler lab) EMBO Reports shows impact of 3D tissue environments on how immature dendritic cells react to HIV-1. Thanks to ⁦Kerstin Göpfrich⁩ lab ZMBH - Center for Molecular Biology Heidelberg⁩ /MPIMR+ #SFB1129 for great collab! doi.org/10.15252/embr.…

Very happy to have been able to contribute to this cool work! Congrats to Sophie Winter @ChlandaL and everyone involved!

Activated T cell receptors are shed through ectocytosis, not endocytosis, at the immune synapse @griffiths_lab Jane Stinchcombe science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

The two isoforms of the ARPC5 subunit of the Arp2/3 complex have specific functions in regulating cytoplasmic and nuclear actin filament assembly in response to DNA replication stress and T cell receptor signalling in T lymphocytes. elifesciences.org/articles/82450…

July 2023 was the hottest month on record, according to our global temperature analysis. Overall, July was 0.43°F (0.24°C) warmer than any other July in NASA Earth's record, and it's likely due to human activity. Details: go.nasa.gov/3OTWMh7

We are hiring 🥳 Join us to work on projects at the interface of #immunology and #virology! There are new opportunities for imaging-based method development and working with cool little primary T cells 😍 Apply if you are interested! CIID_Heidelberg linkedin.com/jobs/view/3696…

🚨Job alert 🚨 I'm recruiting a postdoc to work of my recently funded ANR - Agence nationale de la recherche project 🔥🤩 More details 👇 Don't hesitate to DM 👌 Please RT 🙏

Taking gene-editing applications to the next level, Morath et al., from the lab successfully edit CD4 T cells from Tonsil tissues paving way to answer some cool #virology but also #immunology questions in a more physiological tissue-like environment! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Thrilled that one of my PhD projects is coming to an end 🚀! We show that 3D #collagen gels restrict #HIV infectivity: virions cultured in collagen matrices are restricted at the level of fusion, and are sensitized for innate immune recognition in MDMs. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Cool new method for mechanistic studies in complex lymphoid tissue: Congratulation to Katharina Morath (Fackler lab) for establishing gene editing in ex vivo tonsil cultures that will enable e.g. new quantitative #HIV research sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

It's out! 🥳 The first part of my postdoc work in the Fackler Lab along with peers CIID_Heidelberg is now published in Cell Reports. #virology sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Happy to report that I am a doctor now! #PhDone I want to thank all colleagues & friends CIID_Heidelberg that made the experience tolerable during these past 5 years. Excited for what comes next!

Hey girl, are you eduroam, because we’re completely failing to connect.

1/ Why is Ki-67 called Ki-67? And why am I attaching a photo of this beautiful city to the tweet? If you work in pathology or oncology, you’ve likely come across Ki-67 many times. But where does the name come from? A short 🧵 on the origins, function, and significance of Ki-67.
