In 2024, Yasin Dagdas’s (Yasin Dagdas) group at the GMI published four preprints describing essential features of selective autophagy, the quality control mechanism that removes damaged or unwanted cellular structures. Read more about their insights here: bit.ly/404X6iN

Scientists at the Proteomics Tech Hub of the GMI, IMBA imbavienna.bsky.social and IMP at the Vienna BioCenter recently developed a new single-cell proteomics workflow enabling an unprecedented level of protein quantification at the single cell level. Read more: bit.ly/40vcR2J

Do you have your dancing shoes ready for tomorrow’s science ball? At the ball, don’t miss taking a photo with some of our favorite plant models, at the GMI’s selfie wall. See you there! bit.ly/sci_selfie

The Science Ball was a blast - and many visitors took selfies with two of the GMI’s model plants, Marchantia and Arabidopsis. Read more about them here (in German): wissenschaftsball.at/wp-content/upl…

This year, we celebrate the GMI’s 25th anniversary! But did you know that our institute was initially founded under a different name? Originally called “Institute of Cellular and Developmental Biology”, the institute’s name was changed one year later to the GMI we know and love.

In 2011, the lab of Dieter Schweizer, founding director of the GMI, characterized a new member of the SMC-hinge domain-containing protein family, which they called GMI1. Find out more about our 25th-anniversary celebrations and secure your spot here: bit.ly/4139yjT

New paper alert! The Dagdas group (Yasin Dagdas) discovered that the molecule ATG8 protects the vacuole when the cell wall is damaged. This mechanism ensures that the highly pressured vacuole, essential to the plant cell, remains intact. Read more: bit.ly/4aLCZK9

New paper alert! The labs of Liam Dolan (@DolanLab) and Frédéric Berger combined global climate data with a new population genomics database to identify genetic variants related to climate adaptation in Marchantia polymorpha. Read more: bit.ly/4i4reBd
