We are very excited that our paper is finally out!
🎉 Big congratulations to Moritz Wachsmuth-Melm and to everyone involved.

Exciting to see our protein binder design pipeline BindCraft published in its final form in @Nature ! This has been an amazing collaborative effort with Lennart, Christian, @sokrypton.org, Bruno and many other amazing lab members and collaborators.

How do I choose a principal investigator for my next postdoc? A computer scientist is struggling to trust their postdoctoral research adviser after negative experiences with the previous two. How do you find one that’s right for you?

We are ONLINE! 🤗 This is our Bluesky channel for the project SHIELD.

SHIELD is a health research project funded by the European Union and co-funded by SERI. The SHIELD consortium involving partners from all over Europe will develop molecular tools to prepare the EU for future pandemic events. 💪

Ich habe mit Florian Schumann über die Kontroverse zur Herkunft von SARS-CoV-2 gesprochen - ohne Daten wird es weiterhin schwierig bleiben, sich festzulegen oder auch nur die Wahrscheinlichkeiten zu Wichten. Danke für diesen ausgewogenen Artikel!

Dear US scientists and academics, please join us in Europe for some academic freedom and a glass or two of delicious Chablis.

We are excited to be part of the SHIELD consortium working on Henipa, Flavi and Lassa viruses!
