I will miss the whole team ! ❤️
Just wrapped up the EMBO Integrative Modeling Course, beautifully organized by @ezgikaraca.bsky.social & her amazing team with care🩵! From protein docking & AI-based modeling to endless coffee breaks,seaside dinners, and karaoke, it was science + community at its best. Truly unforgettable @embo.org
My lab @stanfordmedicine.bsky.social is recruiting! We are looking for a postdoc at the interface of quantitative proteomics and G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) biology:

A year ago I gave my first chalk talk at the ZMPP symposium. This year, I returned for my 2nd symposium with a flash talk and poster presentation. Grateful for the chance to share my work, exchange ideas, and connect with colleagues—thanks @zmbp-tuebingen.bsky.social for making it so memorable!
Looking back at some of the inspiring lectures from #PPRM2025 in Edinburgh—such a privilege to learn from so many outstanding researchers. Grateful for this community and the ideas it sparks.

Three inspiring days at #PPRM2025 in Edinburgh come to a close. From engaging talks to discussions, it’s been a privilege to share research and connect with this vibrant community. The John McIntyre Centre beneath Arthur’s Seat and even a touch of Scottish dance made the meeting truly unforgettable.
That’s a wrap for #PPRM2025. Great science, wonderful community and amazing location. Glad it all went smoothly and big thanks to @jackrhodes.bsky.social and @draegermarkus.bsky.social for helping organize the meeting.
Congratulations 🥳
Only a few more days left until the start of #PPRM2025. We have a fantastic line-up of speakers and the final program is now online. Check it out here: api.kdmeventsportal.co.uk/static/downl...
Full house for today’s @TheSainsburyLab seminar with Farid @Farid_El_Kasmi on #NLRbiology
Looking forward to joining the Plant Peptide Receptor Meeting (PPRM2025) this September in Edinburgh ..Excited for inspiring sessions and the opportunity to share my research with this vibrant community #PPRM2025
Delighted to have been selected for the
EMBO Practical Course on Integrative Modelling of Biomolecular Interactions this September in Turkey! Looking forward to hands-on training in AI and computational structural biology and share my own research while connecting with inspiring researchers.

Up next at #2025ISMPMI @kseniakrasileva.bsky.social discussing work on protein language model for receptor engineering.
Great talk by Prof. Martin Stegmann at #ISMPMI2025 on CEP peptides in plant immunity. Brought back memories of TU Munich lab meetings—Jakub’s work shining on stage now. Congrats to him on wrapping up the PhD! 🌱🧬 #plantimmunity
Back from MPMI 2025 — what an amazing few days of science, ideas, and connections!
Grateful for the chance to present my work and to meet in person some of the scientists I’ve long followed and learned from. Looking forward to crossing paths again!

Thrilled to share that Niels Gallas from ZMBP has won a Top Poster Prize at this year’s MPMI meeting! 👏
With hundreds of brilliant posters from around the world, it’s an incredible moment for @zmbp-tuebingen.bsky.social
Big congratulations also to Nguyen from Tokyo University 👏
#ISMPMI2025
Thrilled to share our latest preprint! This work started during my PhD and was finished together with @jmadhuprakash.bsky.social. We found a Phytophthora infestans L-shaped effector that bridges a host TOL protein to activated NLRs to suppress immunity!
