1. A viable scientific ecosystem provides a great variety of environments for scientists to thrive. Some need to be left alone & work best in a small group, some like large multidisciplinary consortia, some build a body of work slowly & incrementally over many years, others seek a few big findings

Hi Everyone! I would like to introduce this amazing team of young scientists 🔥 we are in the university of Cologne and we have fun looking at how mitochondria move in dividing cells. We are in love with protein structures and how structures and interactions change upon PTMs! Happy to chat!
