Thrilled to announce that I am looking for a Research Technician/Assistant to join my lab @imbavienna.bsky.social. Please consider applying if you’re enthusiastic about #devbio #stemcells #teamwork and excited to help shaping a new lab! Thankful for any retweet! 🫶 imba.onlyfy.jobs/job/l6u2m980

1/ Transposable elements are often called "jumping genes" because they mobilize within genomes. 🧬 But did you know they can also jump 𝘣𝘦𝘵𝘸𝘦𝘦𝘯 cells? 🤯 Our new study reveals how retrotransposons invade the germline directly from somatic cells. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... A short thread 🧵👇

We are seeking to fill a type of position that will be new to the IMP: a Scientific Grant Writer to help with externally funded research projects throughout the process: identify donors, apply, coordinate collaborators, oversee implementation, & report back to donors. www.imp.ac.at/career/open-...

Super excited for @kstapornwongkul.bsky.social to join @imbavienna.bsky.social @viennabiocenter.bsky.social this year, exciting times ahead! 😎

If you want to be selected for a short talk at the Singer-Polignac meeting "Fertility-contribution of the maternal inheritance", you can now provide an abstract : singer-polignac.org/fr/missions/...

New preprint from the @gerlichlab.bsky.social @imbavienna.bsky.social! How do DNA breaks locate homology sites in the vast space of the human genome? We show how cohesin guides homology search for faithful repair! Read more 👉 https://doi.org/10.1101/2025.02.10 Follow along for key insights! 🧵

🌱 Thrilled to share that our latest research on Vacuolar Quality Control is now published in Nature Plants! 🚀 We uncovered a new mechanism of ATG8ylation of the tonoplast, which helps us understand how cells survive to cell wall damage. Check it out here: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

A year in the Pauli lab 'in pictures'. It's already a little tradition to look back at the many happy memories of the past year. Excited to see what 2025 will bring - may it be another happy, fun, successful and fulfilling year!

I highly recommend the Frontiers in Reproduction course to graduate students, postdocs, and clinical fellows to learn Reproductive Biology in beautiful Woods Hole @mblscience.bsky.social Two information sessions coming up. The first one is tomorrow.

Please spread the word! We are looking for postdoc(s) interested in quantitative problems in Development and Regeneration. Previous experience in quantitative biology is not required. We will support you and provide a great training environment if you are committed to learn new things.

A personal dream come true! Elated that our study @pauligroup.bsky.social was featured in this month’s issue of Cell! ⬇️ Check out our #skytorial below🦋

Check out this beautiful representation of our work by @munafomarzia.bsky.social uncovering the molecular bridge between sperm and egg! 🔑🤩 We had lots of fun brainstorming together with Marzia and seeing our discoveries come to life in this artistic rendition 🧵

Truly honored that our work was highlighted as one of many applications where #Alphafold has had an enormous impact

Transitions in development– an interview with Kara McKinley Here, @karalmckinley.bsky.social talks about her transition to becoming a PI, her insights on navigating the tenure-track market in biology and her dedication to promoting gender diversity within academia https://doi.org/10.1242/dev.204456

The Vienna Biocenter Summer School 2025 call is now open for talented undergrads, it's a great prog. for students who are interested in the life sciences. training.vbc.ac.at/summer-school/ @impvienna.bsky.social @imbavienna.bsky.social @gmivienna.bsky.social @maxperutzlabs.bsky.social

1/23 Big news for the #ObenaufLab! So excited to finally share our new study providing another puzzle piece, why immunotherapy fails in many tumors, now out in @Nature 🧵👇 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Bones, scales, and lymphatic vessels in juvenile #Zebrafish for #FluorescenceFriday #WeinsteinLab 🧪🔬

What a great day to join this platform! Happy International Women’s Day!!!
