Excited to share that I joined EMBL last week to help set up their newest core facility! Sadly, this meant leaving the amazing Brochado group. I'll miss you all; thanks for the fantastic time! If you fancy joining a fun team & mentor, just reach out to BrochadoLab!

Prof. Paula Alves presented one major research (self) goal: to set up 3D cell systems to precisely mimic a cellular environment with the goal to assist diagnostics and therapeutics. Great Habilitation class ITQB NOVA. Congratulations 👏

🔬🎉 Grateful for being elected an EMBO member. A testament to the hard work and support of the entire lab team over the years 😍. Looking forward to interact even more with the brilliant community and continue to help the next generation of outstanding scientists

👏 Congratulations to Ricardo Henriques and Rui Oliveira, from I Gulbenkian Ciência, who were awarded the EMBO Membership, along with researchers from ChampalimaudF and @i3s_uporto, in recognition of the excellence of their research and outstanding achievements in the life sciences.

Exciting news🤩- we have an opening for a tenure-track Assistant Professor in Infection Biology & Immunology in our Institute EPFL Life Sciences EPFL Please spread the word & encourage outstanding postdocs, who are ready to start their own labs, to apply. THX 🤓 shorturl.at/bSvVe

Ryuga Sugiyama's great experimental work on host range of an artificial symbiotic E. coli and natural Pantoea symbiont both mutualistic to the stinkbug Plautia stali is out! - Unexpectedly, E. coli was more host specific than natural symbiont doi.org/10.1128/mbio.0…

A major question in (marine) microbiology is "who eats what" – whether different heterotrophic groups utilize different pools of dissolved organic matter. Shira and Elena added different macromolecular pools to a natural community from the oligotrophic Eastern Mediterranean.
