We determined the structures of human UCP1 in apo, ATP-bound, and DNP-bound states. (nature.com/articles/s4158…) Congratulations to Yunlu on another two-author paper!

We hit a milestone of at least 100 followers! 🥳🥳 We would like to thank all of you for following and let you know there are more exciting research things to come, so stay tuned! 👩‍🔬🧑‍🔬

Last week our former colleague Jürgen Kreiter who is a current PostDoc at Stanford Medicine visited us and gave an insightful talk titled "The family of the chloride channels CLCs: Between mechanistic and pharmacological studies" to showcase his current work. Thank you! 🥳🧑‍🔬

Our European Biophysics Congress #EBSA2023 in Stockholm has been just opened! Four days ahead full of science, nice discussions and friends! Gorgeous environment of Stockholm University and spectacular congress site at Aula Magna

Our group attended the 14th biannual EBSA congress in Stockholm, Sweden, this past week. Our PhD student Kristina Zuna and postdoc Sanja Skulj had poster presentations, and we all had a lovely and exciting time. Here´s to more excellent scientific work to come! 😊👩‍🔬#EBSA2023
