Thank you Steffi and Veselin.

SNAP-tag2 for faster and brighter protein labeling - Nature Chemical Biology

SNAP-tag is a widespread tool for labeling protein for bioimaging. Now, Kühn et al. report SNAP-tag2 with increased labeling kinetics and brightness, which translates into a better performance in live...

🎉 I’m thrilled to announce that my application to the Emmy Noether Program was successful!

Over the next years, we’ll investigate how ER–mitochondria contact sites control the lipidome of both organelles.

We’re looking for talented researchers to join us on this journey! 🔬
