Volcán Chimborazo desde Guayaquil y el Rio Guayas al amanecer. Hoy asomó a saludar, quizás diciéndome que lo vaya a visitar. A 144km de distancia en línea recta, este volcán siempre ha sido un símbolo patrio, tanto que aparece en el Escudo de la bandera ecuatoriana.

The global rate of confirmed cases has declined by more than a quarter since the peak at the end of April. This is due to positive developments in Europe, North America, & Asia. The region that is unfortunately going the other direction is South America. ourworldindata.org/explorers/coro…

Dengue fever infects hundreds of millions every year. By infecting mosquitoes with the bacteria 'Wolbachia' we can control the spread. A new study from Indonesia reduced infections by 77% and hospitalizations by 86%. Amazing. [nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…].

Covid-19 significantly changes the size and stiffness of red and white blood cells - sometimes over months. These results of our researchers may help to explain why some affected people continue to complain of symptoms long after an infection. mpl.mpg.de/news-events/ne…

This by the BBC is extremely wrong. 5.2 million is the number of confirmed deaths. How many people have died is not exactly known – though there are good estimates. It is certainly much higher than 5.2 million, as the testing and reporting in many parts of the world is low.

Spectacular discovery by Freddy Frischknecht: #malaria #sporozoites form rotating vortices. Our theoretical analysis, now published in Nature Physics and led by Pintu Patra, identified the key physical aspects: self-propulsion, curved shape, chirality and mechanical flexibility

now online: our paper on tug-of-war and coordination of molecular motors. Congrats to first author Omar (Omar Muñoz). This started (a while back) as his BSc. thesis. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

So here we go, day 2 report from our #mikrob22 meeting! The day was opened by Victor SourjikLab discussing costs and benefits of bacterial motility

Do molecular motors perform a tug-of-war or not? It’s more complicated than that: Omar Muñoz and Stefan Klumpp propose a model in which of motors in a tug-of-war can be activated/inactivated to shed new light into an old debate. go.acs.org/2Nb

Merry Christmas and Happy, Healthy and hopefully soon back to Peaceful New Year 2023! to all our dear colleagues, friends, collaborators, and students from our whole group FAU Germany Max-Planck-Zentrum für Physik und Medizin IMPRS Physics and Medicine (traditional X-mass market photo after 2 years of covid break)

A propósito del avistamiento de hoy del Chimborazo desde Guayaquil, acá les comparto unas fotos tomadas desde el centro. Debajo el río Guayas con la famosa aerovía y acompañando al inmenso volcán, el Cerro Las Cabras de Durán. Sony | Alpha Sony América Latina

Hoy 28 de abril se volvió a ver al volcán Chimborazo desde Guayaquil. Quizás y hasta el Chimborazo se cansó que no le crean y por eso asoma tanto últimamente para que más personas vean que esto es real, pero quizás todos en sus apuradas vidas no se dan el tiempo de observar ni

FINALLY! This was challenging to publish but we believe it is an important discovery: rdcu.be/eATDa 💫Thanks to the amazing team 💫 Abin Biswas Omar Muñoz Kyoohyun Kim Carsten Hoege Benjamin Lorton Rainer Nikolay Matthew L. Kraushar David Shechter GuckLab 🇺🇦 Vasily Zaburdaev 🇺🇦

Finally is an important word - and perhaps it reflects how non-trivial this finding was! Thanks and congrats to the whole fine team!

It's here! AND It's become better 🐸 Our fundamental work on intracellular density distributions, how it influences cellular organisation & how deviations occur during pathophysiological states like senescence is in Nature Communications Congratulations & thank you to the whole team!
