We are a DFG-funded consortium of theoretical and experimental physicists, biologists, chemists and clinicians, studying non-equilibrium processes in biological systems - e.g. How do immune cells move & find their targets? How do bacteria adhere to surfaces & cause infections?

Next to all the science, networking was continued in some off-campus activities (climbing parc, visit at World Heritage Site Völklinger Hütte, a long hike, & more sports🧘♂️🏃♀️).

Here some impressions from our #DGZ International Meeting @DGZ_info, held in Saarbrücken, with @SFB_1027 #CellPhysics2023. ~300 participants enjoyed exciting data by invited speakers, in 28 short-talks & on 135 posters. The science shared was outstanding, thx to all who joined!

Bacteria: I need more space!
Pluronic: Don't stress, let me relax a bit! 😎
Take a deep dive into the stress relaxation and creep-recovery behavior of pluronic hydrogels used for bacteria encapsulation in #EngineeredLivingMaterials #ELM

We reprogrammed some bacteria, stuck them in a gel and shone light. YOU WON'T BELIEVE WHAT HAPPENED NEXT!
