“I’m never gonna work another day in my life, the Gods told me to relax. They said I'm gonna get fixed up right.”

Other than that, image analysis, machine learning and statistical modelling @ Leibniz-HKI.
Second day of #IbSB2026 is about to start. Looking forward to talks from @tingyingpeng.bsky.social, @joelluethi.bsky.social
and many others her at @leibniz-hki.de.

New collaborative publication!

Our colleagues Anastasia Solomatina, Yann Bachelot, Carl-Magnus Svensson & Marc Thilo Figge contributed to a new study showing how neutrophil-derived vesicles can help Candida albicans evade immune clearance.

#CandidaAlbicans
Host‐to‐Pathogen Transfer of Neutrophil Components via Extracellular Vesicles Shields <i>Candida albicans</i> From Immune Attack in Human Blood
Neutrophils release extracellular vesicles (EVs) in response to Candida albicans, and these EVs bind to the fungus in a complement-dependent manner while carrying neutrophil surface markers and antim...

📄 New paper accepted!

Our colleague Carl-Magnus Svensson co-authored a study on engineering NRPS specificity to design new bioactive peptides.

#NRPS #SyntheticBiology #Publication
Mapping the nonribosomal specificity code through promiscuity-guided A-domain engineering
Nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPSs) assemble bioactive peptides from various building blocks. The binding pocket residues governing building block specificity have allowed prediction of NRPS prod...

If your imaging system has poorly characterized constant distortions leading to chromatic aberration, shoddy stitching, or false measurements (the answer is likely yes), you may want to give this tool a try. Native installers for Linux, Mac, Win under Releases github.com/saalfeldlab/...

If the figures we're getting out of Iran are in the right league, this weekend was, I think, one of the bloodiest state crackdowns of all time. People are talking 12,000-20,000 dead; for comparison Hungary in 1956 was about 2,500, Tiananmen - across country, in multiple cities - probably 1000+

Jag såg min första match med @ifknorrkoping.bsky.social 1989 mot Torino. Det jag sett ik eftermiddag från klubb, spelare och supportrar är ta mig fan bara pinsamt för alla.

IT'S HAPPENING! 💥 I'm psyched to launch the collaboration between @qedscience.bsky.social & @openrxiv.bsky.social @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social! Preprint + q.e.d = your science is out there, and anyone can appreciate it. Let's care about making discoveries, and not on “getting published” (1/3) 👇

Excited to present work from my preprint at #SMBI2025 @uni-jena.de on September 18th. I will be speaking on how spatial structure can explain the association of microbial accessory genes with inducible prophages.
