The first day of our lab retreat is underway. We didn't venture far from EMBL, just up the hill to Königstuhl overlooking Heidelberg and the Rhine valley. However, we did invite guest from other labs who are working on the microbiome and are enjoying the discussions across the groups!

Are you coming to #IHMC in Rome? Our lab is represented with 3 posters and 2 talks ("Stool #microbiome analysis and its impact on progression and decompensation of liver cirrhosis" by Peer & "The global landscape of horizontal gene transfer" by Chan Yeong Kim). Looking forward to seeing you there!

Congratulations to Askarbek Orakov, who successfully defended his PhD at the University of Würzburg today!
Peer is dressed in a Kazakh traditional “Shapan”, which is given to honorable people – a gift from Askarbek's and his wife's families. Thank you very much for this!

At the end of a busy year, we are on a retreat in Strasbourg for a few days of brainstorming, team-building fun, scientific discussions across the many topics we're working on, and of course to enjoy the Christmas market and the sights
