Hey microbiologists, have you ever thought about the history of agar plates? Thank you Angelina Hesse for your contribution to microbiology! #WomenInSTEM #scicomm #microbiology #agarart #microbialmenagerie microbialmenagerie.com/2018/05/31/ang…

Check out a new paper from our former postdoc, Aileen Berasategui, now an assistant professor at Amsterdam Institute for Life and Environment!

The first paper describing and analyzing our large dataset of 1034 newly sequenced high-quality genomes of filamentous actinomycetes is online Nucleic Acids Res: academic.oup.com/nar/advance-ar….

And with that, I'm off. What a beautiful day to be in Tübingen! Thank you for everything ZiemertLab. I'm going to miss you all very much. May we meet at the next recombination. Attempto, my friends!

Goodbye to Athina Gavriilidou, we will miss you too. Wishing you all the best in your future endeavors! 🌟

Our tools AutoMLST, ARTS, and ARTS-DB are temporarily down due to technical issues. We are actively working to resolve this and will have them back online as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience! 🔧

Congratulations!

Novel bacitracin analogues from the Nathaniel Martin lab ! Thanks for a great collaboration. Melina Arts Stephen Cochrane A classic antibiotic reimagined: Rationally designed bacitracin variants exhibit potent activity against vancomycin-resistant pathogens pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

The ZiemertLab went deep into some deep cave for some “mining” today and say goodbye to Franziska Höhn and wish her strength for the last rounds of thesis writing 💪 thanks Aleksandra Korenskaia for the picture

Congratulations Samuel Samuel Wagner - Controlling Microbes to Fight Infections is proud of you! Good luck with the new job for Universität Tübingen ! 🌻

Happy to be back at the #GRCNaturalProducts in New Hampshire. Exciting days full of #NaturalProducts #FamilyConference

After 15 a research and development, so happy to have first patients in to test phage lysine HY133 against nasal MRSA. DZIF - Deutsches Zentrum für Infektionsforschung Controlling Microbes to Fight Infections

I’m happy to share the latest publication from the Martin group out today in Science Translational Medicine. In this study we report the discovery and development of a new glycopeptide antibiotic with great potential for (pre)clinical development. n/1 science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Honored to be part of this workshop and present our FunARTS tool at 12th International Mycological Congress (IMC12)! Grateful to Marnix Medema and Garima Singh for the invitation, and a big thanks to Neriman Yilmaz 🧫🔬🧬 and Jerome for their moderation. #IMC12 ZiemertLab #FunARTS #GenomeMining🍄💻🧬
