#H2020 #MSCA “Bio-inspired and Bionic materials for Enhanced Photosynthesis" Interdisciplinary research training network

[BEEP @BEEP_MSCA2020]

BEEP studies structural colour in bacteria, diatoms, seaweeds, applications for hydrogels and new technologies.
This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie grant agreement N° 86012.

The BEEP project has ended but our findings will translate into new #biomimetic materials and better performing bio-photoreactors: https://t.co/i3N2yUtCvy #msca #H2020

Here is a little insight into the fascinating things the BEEP consortium has been up to these past 4 years 😉

Congratulations to @ArielGarcaFlei1 for his #paper on the "Influence of structural colour on the #photoprotective mechanism in the gametophyte phase of the red #alga Chondrus crispus"! 🎉

This is the result of strong collaboration within the BEEP 🌈 😄

Have a look on the Euraxess portal to find projects just as cool as the BEEP!🧫🔬🌈
You can find #PhD positions with outstanding research leaders and a strong network of collaborators ✨

Dear eco-evo-devo community, my colleague Cedric Finet and I are excited to be organizing a research topic around the development of biological nanostructures. Submissions are now open. If your work relates to this topic, please consider submitting 🙂 https://t.co/deelEHteTd

The secondment saga continues for the BEEP ESRs! Last month, @MargotMinju visited Hoekmine BV in Utrecht to learn from their microbiology techniques and investigate seaweed endophytic #bacteria and #iridescent biofilm.

So cool!

An eco-friendly alternative to air conditioning? 🧊

Silvia Vignolini @VignoliniLab has developed a plant-based film that gets colder when exposed to sunlight and could cool buildings without the need of external power.

Why are some corals so colourful? We took a deep dive into the role of coral pigments (#GFP) for physiology and photobiology in our new review! @MicroSensing @FrontMarineSci https://t.co/LxuavWxx7G

[BEEP @BEEP_MSCA2020]

Congrats for the great paper!

[MicroEcology Lab @MicroSensing]

We reviewed the role of host #pigments for #coral #photobiology
Great teamwork led by Gabriel Ferreira with @ElenaBollati @MicroSensing

This time, we met in the Natural History Museum London to hold the BEEP Annual Meeting! It's always such a joyful moment when we are all gathered in person. Some are missing from this picture, but they were here!
We are so glad to have such a wonderful group of collaborators ❤️🌈

Today the BEEP ESRs had a workshop on how to consider their career strategies and how to work on their CVs with the career consultant Marloes Tijssen!

White #colors are the result of multiple #scattering☁️. We studied if there is an optimal structure to obtain #whiteness with surprising results. Out now @CommsPhys https://t.co/IMGgUy5uil

Such skilled collaborators #grateful @jshaataj @ThatGladPerson @GianniJacca @VignoliniLab

[BEEP @BEEP_MSCA2020]

Wow! Congrats!

[Lukas Schertel @SchertelLukas]

We made it to the cover in @NaturePhotonics !!! Check our work here: https://t.co/NyPtgsBvy3

Congrats @TLemcoff @jshaataj @BenpalmerLab @VignoliniLab

[Vona Meleder @VonaMeleder]

📣Still 3 weeks to apply!
Want to do a phD on mudfats using drone remote sensing in a amazing team? Contact us 😉

[MicroEcology Lab @MicroSensing]

Important paper!. And the next step for #nanoSIMS in #Biology
Congrats!

[VignoliniLab @VignoliniLab]

@BEEP_MSCA2020 @tescan_micro @TescanUK @tescan_micro @TescanUK is not a company but a family! Once you get a microscope the support never ends! Thank you for being part of our team!

[BEEP @BEEP_MSCA2020]

Last week, Margot and Maria were also in Denmark at @MicroSensing with Gabriel. Doing some experiments on their seaweeds with Optical coherence tomography, hyper spectral imaging and holotommography.
Thanks to Michael Kühl, Swathi, Sofie and Gabriel for hosting and helping us!
