🚀Science rocks!

Now @bzh-hd.bsky.social Jonathan Friedman is talking in #mitochondria organization

🚨 Preprint Alert 🚨 #LipidTime

Excited to share our new preprint! 🎉 We propose a hypothesis for how FGF2 crosses the plasma membrane — a mechanism that may reflect a general principle of membrane remodeling.

🔑 Key idea: Non-bilayer lipid accumulation alters membrane properties, driving remodeling.

Thrilled to have contributed to this amazing work! Thanks for having us on board 🙌 Huge shoutout to our super-talented postdoc #MelanieKönig for her outstanding efforts 💫. And big congratulations to everyone involved in this terrific team effort! 🎉 @sfb1638.bsky.social @bzh-hd.bsky.social

A bit late—but better late than never!
Honored to present my work at #EBSA2025 in Rome a few weeks ago.

I first attended EBSA in 2017 in Edinburgh and haven’t missed one since. This year in Rome—my first home—was especially meaningful. 🇮🇹

Already looking forward to Berlin 2027—my new home! 🇩🇪

Looking for a PhD position?

The Schuck lab has an opening for a student interested in finding out how human cells control the size of their endoplasmic reticulum. Please visit www.bzh.uni-heidelberg.de/schuck and navigate to 'Open Positions'.

Do you want to become our colleague?

We are looking to fill a part-time (50%) permanent position for a Technical Laboratory Assistant, starting September 15, 2025.

It was an honor and a real pleasure to be the first speaker at the inaugural @bitsinbio.bsky.social meetup in Berlin!A fantastic opportunity to share my past work and future research directions with such an inspiring and engaged audience!

Huge thanks to @instadeep.bsky.social for making it happen!

Just back from the Jacques Monod Conference on Membrane Remodeling in Roscoff—an inspiring trip for Sebastian Schuck and Michael Meinecke (@meineckelab)! We had exciting science, engaged in inspiring discussions, and enjoyed the stunning setting. There’s nothing quite like membrane research.

The Schuck lab is looking for a PhD student or postdoc who is keen to understand how cells control organelle size and shape.

For more information, please visit www.bzh.uni-heidelberg.de/schuck and have a look at 'open positions’.

🚨 Lipid Time! 🚨
Excited to share our latest story now on @biorxiv-biochem.bsky.social !
Our brilliant PhD student @manpreet0700.bsky.social , together with @walter-nickel-bzh.bsky.social and myself, shows how PI(4,5)P₂ asymmetry in the plasma membrane drives the unconventional secretion of FGF2!

Lovely start into our new #SFB1638 on cellular membrane remodeling with a two-day kick-off meeting at the International Academic Forum Heidelberg (IWH). Many thanks to our speaker @meineckelab.bsky.social and team for the great organization.

🚨Another #PostDocOpportunity through the @hlsalliance.bsky.social program at our institute, in the junior research group led by @fabiololicato.com
