Very honoured to have received the Maximilian Order for Sciene and Art, the highest distinction of the Free State of Bavaria. It’s also special in being restricted to 100 living scientists or artists, with an impressive list of past recipients. More at https://t.co/aLwVYY86RN

Attending a VIB conference on biotechnology in Leuven, Belgium. Beautiful place. And what’s particularly helpful is their pointing out the best beer bars in town right in their welcome remarks.

Nature Research Briefings are a really cool idea. Here's one describing our antimicrobial ASO technology to study phages, to appear in this week's print version of Nature. Gives a bit of background how we got there. https://t.co/WCTMq3besh

No Genetics? Try ASOs – A non-genetic approach to silence genes at the phage-host interface. We use it to study jumbo phage biology and anti-phage defence. @Joerglab @Helmholtz_HIRI @Uni_WUE @Helmholtz_HZI published now in @Nature

This is an important step in unraveling the path of antisense antibiotics (asobiotics) across the complex envelope of gram- bacteria and on to finding their mRNA targets. I hope Adam and Marco have enough energy left to expand this to many more species, including gram+ 😉
Excited to share something from my previous postdoc with @mgalactus, a collaboration with the @JoergLab using lab evolution to see how different bacterial species develop resistance to programmable antibiotics: https://t.co/894LEV1Oeg

Young Lab, great mentor—go and apply!
I am excited to announce several post-doc positions studying gene regulation and cell biology of spirochetes are available in the @NIH Biology of Spirochetes Unit, opening 2025 in Bethesda, MD @NIAIDNews! Join our team and work on the dynamic NIH campus:

Gathering in the French senate to discuss the great potential of extracellular RNA. It’d be most interested to use it to find RNA transporters for organ-specific delivery in RNA medicine. Big thanks to Amy Buck and others for organizing this.

RNA world of Prevotella, now Segatella, gut bacteria unfolding! Includes an sRNA essential for colonization. Great work from the @StrowigLab. I am proud to say that three of my former students and postdocs (El Mouali, Tawk, Ponath) contributed to it. https://t.co/MWH3f3SFTV

Looks like worth browsing!
Our focus issue on RNA biology features reviews that explore the many faces of #RNA, diving into the processes mediating the lifecycle of RNA, the regulatory roles of RNA, the importance of RNA in disease, and the technologies used to study RNA. https://t.co/Y4hNLNC5zz

Shall we start calling them „asobiotics“? Probably easier than „antisense-based antibiotics“ or „antibacterial peptide-delivered antisense drugs“, to name just a few of the current names. To be discussed. Anyway, ASOBIOTICS 2024 was a big success. Big thanks to everyone involved.
