Our new findings on how the ribosome couples with the RNA polymerase are summarized in a movie highlighting the dynamics of the process🎞️🎥 Thanks to Clemens Bretscher for the great animations! - https://t.co/gDtI6tAkLK

Excited to share our FIRST @biorxivpreprint of the lab all done by SuperScientist Nussi Qureshi! We see how single ribosomes slow down upon colliding into RNA polymerase and that they activate RNAP via long-range physical coupling! Check it out! @embl

My last day as a demonstrator 💔 was very happy to support students almost 3 years while doing my PhD I’m gonna miss practicals, all students were incredible, learnt so much from them and teaching them was so much fun!

Found out that students that I’ve been supervising for their dissertation got 84 and 72 out of 100 for their practical project! I am very happy and proud, it was a real pleasure working with them 😊
Finished supervising my first UG project last week. I think I’ve learned about myself as much as my students learned about an effect of MarA on the murein lipoprotein during the last two months 😅 I enjoyed every second working with those driven, smart and hardworking people ✨
