Coughs and sneezes: Markus Engstler and Brooke Morriswood @ZEB_UniWue recommend this commentary by Gabriele Neumann & Yoshihiro Kawaoka @UWMadison in @EmboMolMed on what causes the seasonality of respiratory #viruses, e.g., #influenza and #SARSCoV2

Brooke has been a wonderful mentor to over 40 undergrads in the last 7 years. What a great legacy! We need more people like him to train the next generation of scientists!
New posting! Another more personal one, about why I've no regrets about staying in #academia as long as I did (& how we should all perhaps be regularly asking ourselves why we're staying).

Check out Brooke Morriswood's #blog on what academia should be all about, training the next generation with a keen eye not only on their papers, but personalities. #research #academia #shouldIstayorshouldIgo

This #Wednesdaywonder & #wormwednesday has a great head of hair. Tubeworms have a collar of hairs around their head allow them to pluck food out of surrounding water and sense their environment. Find the worms on rocky shores in shady spots if they poke out of their tubes.

I really enjoyed working on our @MKolleg project on fever with @Modern_Hist_HD and @FrischknechtLab. In this interview conducted by @Michael_Boutros, we look back to what we have learned (in German) marsilius-kolleg.uni-heidelb…
Die neue Podcast-Folge von „Marsilius im Gespräch“ ist online!
Über das „Phänomen Fieber“ diskutieren die Marsilius-Fellows Friedrich Frischknecht, Stefanie Gänger und @SchwarzUlrich aus medizinischer, physikalischer und historischer Sicht.

Out today in Cell Host & Microbe: our immune system fights infections by luring the virus into a lipid trap. Another very fruitful and interdisciplinary collaboration in the context of #SFB1129. This Share Link will work until May 20: authors.elsevier.com/c/1gr35…

... here the link to the #CellPhysics2023 meeting webpage: t.ly/RItP
We will also have a joint DGZ-SBCF session to further promote synergies between cell biologists working in Germany and France @DGZ_info @SBCF1
Happy to announce #CellPhysics2023 Oct. 10-13, Saarbruecken, DE. We hope to see you at this year‘s DGZ International Meeting, this time jointly organized by @DGZ_info and @SFB_1027. Abstract and early bird deadline July 3. #cellbiology #biophysics #cytoskeleton #mechanobiology ⬇️
🚨🚨🚨See 👇 for the upcoming @DGZ_info & @SFB_1027 meeting on #CellPhysics, taking place this October in Saarbrücken 🇩🇪!🤗 Let’s see how much #ParasitePhysics we can get into the programme - register now! 😃

🚨🚨🚨 #postdoc position available in #ParasitePhysics @FrischknechtLab, working on #Plasmodium invasion. Apply now! 👇
Postdoc position available in our lab in collaboration with @R0bMoon in London on a @wellcometrust project investigating #Plasmodium knowlesi invasion. All new for us and super exciting. Advanced skills in microscopy and a keen interest in biophysics are a must.
Brooke Morriswood has resigned and will be stepping down as @ParasitePhysics manager at the end of April. #LeavingAcademia.
So, now it’s public! I have resigned, & will be leaving @ZEB_UniWue, @Uni_WUE, @ParasitePhysics, & academia at the end of April. Discussion of the decision, the reasons for it, & what it means for TIR in the posting👇.
I am #LeavingAcademia.

#ParasitePhysics member @RashmiNakate scoops one of the poster prizes at @DParasitologie #DGP2023 - congratulations Rashmi! 🥳👏
The final speaker in this action-packed #ParasitePhysics session at @DParasitologie #DGP2023 is @FrischknechtLab, discussing the #chirality of #Plasmodium #sporozoite migration cc @SchwarzUlrich @LeonLettermann
And that’s a wrap! The @DParasitologie #DGP2023 #ParasitePhysics session is over. Big thanks again to all the speakers. Time for lunch! 😋
The 3rd #ParasitePhysics speaker is Stepanka Nedvedova, describing #biophysics studies of #schistosome MEG family proteins cc @aemiele1
Next speaker at the #ParasitePhysics session at @DParasitologie #DGP2023 is @GubeshG, discussing attachment of #Giardia to solid substrates, & his use of #AFM to analyse it.
The @ParasitePhysics session at @DParasitologie #DGP2023 is under way, Markus Engstler (@ZEB_UniWue ) & @RashmiNakate chairing.
