Exciting news!
One of our students and colleagues have just published in The EMBO Journal!

Their study unveils how GOLPH3 & GOLPH3L maintain Golgi localisation of LYSET, crucial for lysosomal enzyme trafficking.

We have a PhD position open! Please apply if you are interested in proteome-wide interaction networks of large DNA viruses and target them with in-silico-designed protein binders. Our colleagues have many more fascinating projects. Check them out at https://t.co/0XjNG8ubsV

[Humans and Microbes (RTG 2771) @humans_microbes]

Join us at @CssbHamburg this afternoon for an engaging joint LIV Lecture and RTG 2771 Seminar!

🕒 14:00: Richard Stanton on SARS-CoV-2 & HCMV immune evasion
☕ 15:00 Coffee break
🕒 16:00: Rachel Edgar on host cell homeostasis & viral infections

Good news!
The work from the Martin Aepfelbacher lab has received over 500 views since publication! Read it here https://t.co/g1tWSehL0R #ViewsMilestone #infection #PhD

[The Nobel Prize @NobelPrize]

This year’s #NobelPrize laureate in physics John Hopfield created an associative memory that can store and reconstruct images and other types of patterns in data.

The Hopfield network can store patterns and has a method for recreating them. When the network is given an incomplete or slightly distorted pattern, the method can find the stored pattern that is most similar.

On September 27 CSSB's second PhD Day took place. CSSB alumni Quint gave a talk on project management in the wind energy industry and Dr Frank Hoffmann gave talk on mental health. There was also a pub quiz, meme competition and BBQ.

[CSSB @CssbHamburg]

Our Scientific Advisory Board meeting is began this morning with scientific talks from PIs and students. Thanks to our SAB members @tham_lab @ONeyrolles @FriedrichForst1 @EddaKlipp, Ilaria Ferlenghi and Hans-Georg Kräusslich for joining us!

[CSSB @CssbHamburg]

Our SAB meeting also featured a lunch-time poster session.
