7 years ago,I sat outside @zmbp-tuebingen.bsky.social,gathering the courage to begin a new chapter as a group leader. Now in Bochum, I still need that courage to face challenges—both inside & outside the lab—but after all I’m grateful that I still find joy in what I do. #happybirthday #theustunlab

found my #office for today - it‘s great to be able to work remotely during vacation 🙂
August 14, 2025 at 6:01 AM
and now back to vacation mode 🤩 #türkiye 🇹🇷

Tired of what‘s happening in the world and surrounding - I guess I‘ll just stay here for awhile and disappear #offline

We (@manuelgonzalezfuen.bsky.social @margotraffeiner.bsky.social @shanshuo.bsky.social) had a fantastic #2025ISMPMI in Cologne with lots of amazing science and great networking meeting old friends and new ones. Hope to see you all next time in Jeju/South Korea #2027ISMPMI
July 18, 2025 at 8:02 AM
Great talk by @teamthomma.bsky.social who shows that effectors have antimicrobial activities that are ancesteral - other functions within the host have evolved later on to suppress immunity in plants #2025ISMPMI
July 17, 2025 at 4:43 PM
Last plenary of #2025ISMPMI started (🥲) @algazuccaro.bsky.social will talk about the exciting findings of her group on effectors of mutualistic fungi
July 17, 2025 at 3:34 PM
We conclude the session with Yi-Feng Chen wo will talk about organelle dynamics in resistosome-mediated HR. Or more simple: What happens actually during HR in the host cell? #2025ISMPMI See also their preprint with some fantastic cell biology 🤩

fantastic talk by @type3lab.bsky.social how Pseudomonas is colonizing the host! #2025ISMPMI
July 17, 2025 at 2:26 PM
Next in the concurrent session “spatial and temporal session” is @type3lab.bsky.social who will talk about their amazing findings on distinct pseudomonas subpopulations that cooperate to colonize plants #2025ISMPMI
July 17, 2025 at 2:04 PM
Last speaker of this session is @kenichitsuda.bsky.social - he is talking about the influence of abiotic stress on the plant microbiota #2025ISMPMI
July 17, 2025 at 9:40 AM
Next up is @carlosgonzsanz.bsky.social who is talking about plant-microbe interactions during heat stress: is it too hot to handle🔥?! #2025ISMPMI
July 17, 2025 at 9:32 AM
Next up in the concurrent session „abiotic/biotic trade-off“ is @smukhtarlab.bsky.social who is talking about a scRNAseq approach to study abiotic/biotic stress in guard cell #2025ISMPMI
July 17, 2025 at 9:21 AM
Sheng Yang leaves the stage for @mcmicrobes.bsky.social who continues to talk about her exciting results on how abiotic stress impacts the leaf-microbiome #2025ISMPMI
July 17, 2025 at 8:38 AM
Sheng Yang He is highlighting the the importance to study the role of the environment on plant immune responses - a rather unexplored area, perfect topic for #ECRs to start their independent careers! #2025ISMPMI
July 17, 2025 at 8:34 AM
@kenichitsuda.bsky.social is introducing the Concurrent sessions on biotic/abiotic trade-offs in plant-microbe interactions #2025ISMPMI
July 17, 2025 at 8:32 AM
We start the last day of #2025ISMPMI with Renier van der Hoorn who will present his pioneering work on how pathogens manipulate apoplastic defence
July 17, 2025 at 6:17 AM
If you wanna dive into the world of #proteostasis and its role in plant immunity, visit @margotraffeiner.bsky.social poster (P-405) today. She discovered a novel proteotoxicity regulator (a protease with ubiquitin binding capacities) that plays a role in biotic and abiotic stresses! #2025ISMPMI
July 16, 2025 at 9:34 AM
He found out that extracellular water is triggering an uncharacterized immune response - exciting! #2025ISMPMI
July 16, 2025 at 9:01 AM
Enjoying the free afternoon in Cologne at #2025ISMPMI with @manuelgonzalezfuen.bsky.social @margotraffeiner.bsky.social and Christa 🥂
July 15, 2025 at 4:03 PM
Now @manuelgonzalezfuen.bsky.social is on stage presenting his exciting project on p-bodies, and how bacteria utilize them to attenuate host translation #proteostasis #2025ISMPMI
July 15, 2025 at 10:26 AM
We continue with the concurrent session on effector interference mechanisms at #2025ISMPMI - let‘s hope the curve goes up again 😅
July 15, 2025 at 9:34 AM
Next plenary at #2025ISMPMI is given by @tolgaboz.bsky.social who will talk about host membrane trafficking and its role in plant-pathogen interactions! For sure we‘ll see some amazing cell biology 🤩
July 15, 2025 at 6:40 AM
We start with the concurrent session: @lauramepul.bsky.social from @geminiteamlab.bsky.social is introducing the plant-virus interactions session - looking forward to some exciting talks #2025ISMPMI
July 14, 2025 at 8:33 AM
Fantastic plenary talk by Nuria Coll @bactodeath.bsky.social on how to use metabolic engineering to make plants resistant to vascular pathogens #2025ISMPMI
