Biochemist at the University of Bonn, interested in the molecular regulation and function of DNA and RNA structures such as G-quadruplexes and how they impact cell function and consequently human health

You are interested in immunology and how nucleic acid structures contribute to their function and how this impacts disease development - Rayk Behrendt and myself have open PhD positions for a joint PhD program between Bonn and Osaka.
Amazing latest development in NAR demonstrating a direct role of DNA methylation for anti-viral activity. This is also in line with what recently shown by @paeschkelab.bsky.social showing that DNA G-quadruplex structure can play a role in anti-viral activity! Exciting epigenetic times ahead!

The G4 webinar series reached its XV round!
📅We're excited to announce that it will resume on Sep 18th.
👇Take a look for all upcoming dates and don't miss out!
We are more than happy about this fantastic joint work
The new schedule is out For our new schedule of the G4 webinar. Join us for talks on G4s, Z-DNA, R-loops and beyond
G4 scientists be ready for the next international meeting on G4 structures - G4thering, which I organize with Robert Hänsel-Hertsch and Harald Schwalbe.
At this meeting, G4 related science will be presented and discussed by top scientist. Join us in Frsnkfurt in summer 2027.
Summer break is over the next talks in the nucleic acid webinar will start soon. I look forward to exciting talks and discussion. Join us ☺️
