Swapped pipettes and petri dishes for carving tools and pumpkins this week! 🎃 We might be a little bit early, but everyone definitely delivered on this seasonal lab activity! #LabLife #JoglerLabJena #PhDLife

We have wondered what a complex archaeal cell might look like ever since 2014. It’s been a long road (and the journey is far from over), but it’s a good time to pause for breath and look. These Asgard archaeal cells are a surprise! And that is the joy of being a cell biologist.
Great seminar last week at the @jsmc-info.bsky.social, organized by @marcelbaecker.bsky.social!
Prof. Christian Kost (@kostchristian.bsky.social) shared fascinating insights into microbial interactions and cooperation.
Always inspiring to learn from leading researchers in the field

Using electrical signals, plants switch to defence mode when attacked by bacteria. How exactly this happens is now reported by researchers from #UniJena in ‘Science Advances’.

Here we share thoughts on next-gen cultivation: rdcu.be/ejPSb. Hope it helps 😄 Was fun to write with great colleagues @lisamaierlab.bsky.social @jselkrig.bsky.social @baerboletta.bsky.social @typaslab.bsky.social @mmmicrobiomelab.bsky.social @leibniz-dsmz.bsky.social @westermannlab.bsky.social
DNA segregation by bacterial ParABS systems is mediated by transient tethering interactions between nucleoid-bound dimers of the ATPase ParA and centromere (parS)-associated complexes of the clamp-for...
With the launch of the competitions for grants under ERC Work Programme 2026 in July of this year, several changes to the submission of applications and the evaluation of proposals will apply. The mai...
