Looking for a motivated PhD student with a background in #molbio & #biocatalysis. In collaboration with @marcgarciaborras.bsky.social, the project will leverage #photobiocatalysis.
Interested or know any potential candidates? Then check the announcement: biocatalysis.uni-graz.at/pdf/PhD%20ph...

Last week I took the final step in the process of obtaining my venia docendi (habilitation) in organic chemistry.
Thanks go to everyone involved in the research leading to this, including dedicated students, mentors Kurt Faber and Wolfgang Kroutil and the fabulous @elkcrew.bsky.social.

👋 Hello world! Let us introduce ourselves!

We’re a research group exploring the power of enzymes to drive sustainable chemistry 🌍. Our 35-member team👩‍🔬👨‍🔬 works on hundreds of enzymes to create elegant, enzyme-driven solutions for real-world needs.

Hi everyone. It took me a while, but finally I am also here to enjoy the sunny days here at bluesky! I am looking forward to reading, sharing and interacting with all of you!

Congratulations to @_StefanSimic for defending his PhD in the @elk_crew yesterday, it was a tremendous performance! This calls for a traditional #Lego #PhD present: A mini-Stefan performing #flow #photobiocatalysis, everything inc. the light-switch is Lego (except the syringe)

I am looking for two PhD students who are interested in using enzymes to make macrocycles. The project is a collaboration with @psanmur and a nice mix of #biocatalysis, #MolecularBiology, #synthesis and #ComputationalChemistry. Interrested? See here:...

A while ago I started gifting PhD students that I (co)-supervised in the @elk_crew a custom #lego set after their successful defense. Congratulations @BierbaumerS for your performance today and during the last years. Enjoy your new #photobiocatalytic pipetting #automaton!

#Enzymes are #exciting, especially when applied in #photobiocatalysis! Our perspective in @ChemPhotoChem summarizes our insights from the @PhotoBioCat project.

Just arrived in the beautiful Delft for the second edition of @NextGenBiocat. Looking forward to meeting all of you in person!

I love constructing #lego models. This is our group logo made from Lego bricks @elk_crew 😁

Happy to be accepted to #Reaxys="/hashtag/Reaxysadvisors" class="hover:underline text-blue-600 dark:text-sky-400 no-card-link">#Reaxysadvisors, allowing me to demonstrate #Reaxys in my literature search seminar at @UniGraz. Literature search & efficient use of databases is vital for research & should be part of any chemistry curriculum. Remember? A day in the library saves…

If you want to dive into #photobiocatalysis & still need a good photoreactor, this one is for you: Check out the characterization of our #opensource #photoreactor & some nice light-dependent #biocatalysis. @elk_crew @WKroutil @ChemPhotoChem ...

I have a very good feeling about this! #LegoStarWars #millenniumfalcon #biotrans2021 @G_Tasnadi @biotrans2021

Are any of you into #Lego? This is my take in modelling an #enzyme completely from Lego bricks. The second image is the original (PDB: 4X19). Who can guess what enzyme it is? (Hint: it consists of only 62 amino acids and is catalytically active.)

This is for the synthetic chemists out there. We summarize the synthetic potential of #Biocatalysis. @WKroutil, Jörg Schrittwieser, @elk_crew, @ACSCentSci, @ACSPublications https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acscentsci.0c01496#.YARFCO--JCg.twitter

💡 Hello #YCS20! Check out the open source #photoreactor that we developed in the @elk_crew for “Fast Reaction Engineering of Photobiocatalytic Reactions through Parallelization” #biocatalysis #photocatalysis #photobiocatalysis

Hi @LatinXChem, I’m here to learn about twitter poster-sessions and I'm excited to discover the chemistry from Latin America. Read about our custom #photoreactor to run #photobiocatalysis in parallel. #LatinXChem #LatinXChemCat #Cat003 #elkcrew #biocatalysis #photocatalysis

We used computers and experiments to learn about the active site of the Acyltransferase from Mycobacterium smegmatis. Thanks @elk_crew, @etta_jost, Masoud Kazemi, Valerija Mrkonjić, Fahmi Himo and @WKroutil for the work you put into this!...

🌻This quote from Richard Feynman was truly inspiring to me when I did my PhD. It is amazing to witness the beauty of nature. So, I continued searching, finding, and enjoying the beauty of enzymes ever...

it wa great to be back at the lab today after such a long time and wor on our #photoreactor for #photobiocatalysis.
