I had the pleasure of giving a talk at the Biomolecular condensates conference in Copenhagen!☀️

Thanks to @proteinmagnus.bsky.social, @lindorfflarsen.bsky.social, and A.K. Buell for creating such an interesting program, and Fida Biosystems for the travel grant award! 👏

Very exciting program for the next 3 days!
Will talk about microfluidic platform for biomolecular condensates on the second day. See you there!
Trigger warning: FOMO

How often do you go to a conference where you are excited about EVERY SINGLE TALK! Well, I guess it helps if you get to make the program. 😀

"Biomolecular condensates: From fundamental principles to applications in health and biotech" kicking off at 9 AM!

I was waiting two years to see this out!! The genomic location of bacterial genes is not random!!! Congratulation on the authors (Martin Lercher and Team!). www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
Most bacterial gene families are biased toward specific chromosomal positions
The arrangement of genes along bacterial chromosomes influences their expression through growth rate–dependent gene copy number changes during DNA replication. Although translation- and transcription-...

We are looking forward to the workshop "Biomolecular Condensates and Polymer Phase Transitions" which we are organizing together with the IPF Dresden (dpd.ipfdd.de).

It will be held from May 25th - 28th, 2025 in Meißen, near Dresden.

The registration deadline is May 5th, 2025.

Calling all structural enthusiasts! An accurate depiction of the structure of DNA in #Lego is under 2000 supporters away from being considered to become a real set!

It even has Franklin, Watson, and Crick minifigures and a Lego photgraph 51 and Bragg's law!

How do biomolecular condensates achieve their cellular roles? It comes down to their internal structure. 🧵⬇️
