WilhelmssonLabChalmers

Marcus Wilhelmsson is Professor at Chalmers University of Technology, working with nucleobase modifications, for example, for fluorescence labeling. He will host one student who develops novel nucleobase analogues that will facilitate single-molecule biophysics studies. @wilhelmssonlab.bsky.social

Erwin Peterman is a professor at VU University Amsterdam and an expert on combining fluorescence with optical tweezers. He will host 1 student within MeChaNiSM, who will study novel fluorescently modified nucleic acids, including base analogs with these tools. www.nat.vu.nl/~erwinp

Jocelyne Vreede is a professor at University of Amsterdam, using molecular simulation to study nucleic acids in atomistic detail. She will host 2 students within MeChaNiSM to characterise how modified bases and small molecules affect nucleic acid structure and dynamics. @vreedecompchem.bsky.social

MeChaNiSM Mechanical Characterization of Nucleic acids using Single Molecule techniques

Our lab is happy to be part of EU doctoral network MeChaNiSM www.chalmers.se/en/projects/.... Glad to have the PhD students at Chalmers in place and looking forward to full speed ahead in the project.
