Living Therapeutic Materials!
What? Why? How? - Check out my talk in the global ELM webinar series on Wednesday at 5 PM (German time).

And here's a sneak peek into some of the things I'm going to show

After the tsunami hit Chennai in 2004, I went with my grandpa on his scooter to witness the terrible flood caused by it.
20 years later, going to see the aftermath of the (much milder) floods in Saarbrücken by cycle evoke the same feeling of awe & respect for the power of water!

Remember to join us next week!

And now here are the video highlights of our Girls Day event!
#womeninSTEM #EducationMatters

Paper is finally out! And here comes the MUSICAL ABSTRACT 😃 Hope you guys out there enjoy it! And do not forget to read the paper and try out our algorithm for active split site prediction in inteins!

Can we get robots and #AI to turbo boost engineered living materials development?
The inspiring guest lecture by Alvaro Banderas showed us how this can be part of the future by building next-gen biofoundaries.

I'm at a scientific retreat in Trifels, Germany and am blown away by the scenery we get to enjoy while working. I wonder if it will improve discussions or just distract us 😅

Leibniz INM is a wonderful place for living materials research. I've visited them twice and am very impressed by their focus on ELM and how supportive the PIs are!

Congratulations to Dr. Maria Puertas-Bartolome👩‍🎓 and colleagues on developing an innovative concept of living contact lenses for protecting the eyes👁️👁️. Check out their paper on self-lubricating lenses 🧐🧐with engineered bacteria 🦠🦠 . 📜Link 👇👇👇👇

On our #podcast , Sara Trujillo played '3 truths & a Lie'. One of her 'facts' was that there are 300 times more cells in the human body than there are stars in the Milky Way!
Both numbers are huge, but is is true?

Find out on the Material Minds podcast, now on Youtube and Spotify!

The Engineered Living Materials conference is back this year!
We cover algal & co-culture ELMs, living therapeutic materials, new fabrication methods, confined microbial behavior, and enhanced functions with ELMs

We've been extended for another 4 years (2025-28) thanks to Leibniz-Gemeinschaft!
Leibniz_INM, Antibiotikaforschung and Universität Saarland will continue working together towards the rapid development of living therapeutic materials.
