How do organisms make and shape minerals, how is this relevant to human health, and how can it be utilized for sustainable materials production? To discuss these and other topics, join the GRC on Biomineralization from 2-8 August. More information at https://t.co/XwQtHhtkbp
Check out our latest pre-print based on my PhD work, in which we shed light on the roles of myosins and actin in diatom gliding motility! #diatom#actin#myosin@StefanDiezLab@KrogerLab

Inspired by the Victorian art of arranging #Diatoms, we have officially welcomed the Holiday season with our first diatom window art Christmas tree! @BCUBE_TUDresden
Congratulations to team DRIP @iGEMTUD23 on your outstanding performance at the 2023 iGEM competition #iGEM2023!! Finishing in the top ten is an amazing achievement and a testament to all of your hard work. @BCUBE_TUDresden@tudresden_de
During the Pandemic we had to teach our Diatom Genetic Engineering Practical Course online and made this video. Finally we have uploaded it to YouTube! #diatom
Diatom Genetic Engineering using the Biolistic Particle Delivery System https://t.co/hoYkhzl382 via @YouTube
Pacbio genome sequencing revealed that some diatom adhesive proteins are enormous and highly repetitive and we discuss how these play a role in diatom motility and biofilm formation
Happy to see our perspective article on Thalassiosira pseudonana out in @JPhycology
Who is joining us in advocating for the resurrection of its original name Cyclotella nana?
Organisms from microbes to whales are incredibly adept in making functional materials with outstanding properties - using only a handful of renewable components. How do they do it? Join the DIGS-BB Summer School on the Biological Making of Materials to find out.
