Time for upscaling at Daumann Lab: Helena and Robin (Department of Biogeochemistry at the HZDR) were running a #recovery experiment of #lanthanide from secondary water sources by #microorganism – SoIV! #HZDR visits #LMU

Prof. Christophe Den Auwer from Université Côte d'Azur who gave a talk about the speciation of #radionuclides in marine ecosystems & discussed cooperation possibilities in the field of #radioecology with Johannes Raff from our department & Moritz Schmidt from HZDR-IRE Chemistry of the f-elements

The kick-off meeting for the BMBF-funded collaborative project TRAVARIS Universität Jena . After the long Corona time it was a great pleasure to meet in presence and discuss the common project work focusing on the migration of #radionuclides in environments and their uptake into #plants

Paper:in lab 𝐵𝑟𝑎𝑠𝑠𝑖𝑐𝑎 𝑛𝑎𝑝𝑢𝑠 plants accumulate #europium and affect its #speciation. It is mainly found in the #root, immobilized as aggregates and precipitates. Chemical microscopy allowed the spatially resolved detection of 3 Eu(III) species. doi.org/10.1016/j.ecoe…

Paper published in Science of The Total Environment! If you wanna learn about #speciation-dependent #microbial #uranium (VI) reduction and the presence of U(V) during this process by a sulfate-reducing Desulfosporosinus species: doi.org/10.1016/j.scit…

So happy this is finally out 🥳Helena Singers wonderful collaboration with Zeymer Lab and team, Robin Steudtner and Björn Drobot from Department of Biogeochemistry at the HZDR, Arjan Pol and Huub Op den Camp from Radboud University and Cecilia Martinez-Gomez, Funding from @germanscholars DFG public | @[email protected] European Research Council (ERC)

In this Annual ConCord project meeting EURAD-2, Sean Wei from our department and Natalia Jakus from EPFL, Switzerland were presenting their preliminary results of microbial activities in #bentonite clays. #microbiology

Congratulations! Our PhD student Max Klotzsche Department of Biogeochemistry at the HZDR and Jann Schoegart from the Department of Reactive Transport won first and second place, respectively, in the poster session at the 10th RCA Workshop in Dresden, June 12-14. They are part of the joint project #RENA.

We appreciated our colleagues Nicole Matschiavelli & Raúl E. Linares Jiménez Raúl E. Linares Jiménez (in pic) working on the safety of a #nuclear waste repository and #radioecology for their valuable support during the Lange Nacht der Wissenschaften event! #LangeNachtderWissenschaften #HZDR

Meeting amazing collaboration partners Helena Daumann Lab & Robin and Björn Department of Biogeochemistry at the HZDR in Strasbourg ICFE-11 conference… 😊
