Very happy and excited to share that my main PhD project has been published in @CellReports this week. We identified #RABGAP1L as a novel antiviral host factor that disrupts #endocytosis to limit cell entry of viruses using this pathway. https://t.co/9gQN8whzVQ

Ich und meine Frau haben bereits letzte Woche entschieden, die Weihnachtszeit alleine zuhause zu feiern. Die Krankenhaus Auslastung in unserer Heimat ist sehr besorgniseregend, und dort gelten deutlich strengere Maßnahmen. Jeder kann sein Teil tun. Jeder muss seinen Teil tun.

[Scientific Advisory Panel COVID-19 @SciAP_Covid19]

Die am 11. Dezember beschlossenen Massnahmen reichen nicht aus.

Wir können uns eine Stagnation der Fallzahlen nicht leisten, geschweige denn einen erneuten Anstieg.

Wir müssen sofort handeln, gemeinsam und solidarisch.

Thrilled to see our recent publication on the state-of-the-art and the envisioned future of #phagetherapy to target #AMR #Pathogens.

Great times working with Brian Lennemann, @SamuelKilcher, @MartinLoessner and @timlu!

Check out this awesome #BacteriophageLamp my two amazing groomsmaids made me for my wedding 😍 I love the spiral light bulb symbolizing packaged DNA! (also don’t miss my beautiful relatives in the backdrop)

@NoemieMatthey @MBlokesch @AprilPawluk @joeBondyDenomy I totally agree. They are so easy to personify and can be kind of cute at times 😍

[Jonas Fernbach @FlyGeneticsGuy]

@NoemieMatthey @MBlokesch @AprilPawluk @joeBondyDenomy Awesome! Cool to see you are a PhageArtist as well. I love your work! :-)

Great paper about dynamic RBP-surface interactions. Spontaneously reminded me of the famous

Beautiful study explaining why CRISPR resistance is rarely observed in laboratory settings but really important in more complex environments! Congrats! #bacteriophage #CRISPR https://t.co/AkpDvOJhHZ
